Hello everyone, Once again, suspected Taliban militants have struck with deadly force: this time in Rawalpindi outside a bank and at a police roadblack near Lahore. The Pakistani government's fight against Taliban insurgents in key Pakistani regions continues to take its toll on the streets of the country. We are live in Islamabad for the latest. Also today, what happens next in Afghanistan, after the election commission there canceled the second round run-off and declared incumbent Hamid Karzai president? Over the week-end, Karzai's challenger, Abdullah Abdullah, pulled out of the race, saying conditions were not in place to ensure the vote would be transparent and fair. We will bring you a live report from Kabul. Later in the show, we'll ask what might come next for Afghanistan as Karzai is awarded another term. How will this affect U.S. military plans? What shape will the new government take? Will Karzai ne viewed as a legitimate leader? Also today, Wall Street is on another high. This time, better than expected Ford results and some economic numbers are making investors happy. After last Friday's bruising session, it's all smiles at the NYSE. We'll break down the numbers for you. We are also live in Baghdad, Morocco and Berlin. See you at the IDesk!
