Thousands of Pakistani protesters rally for change

A cleric leading thousands of protesters was set for a showdown with the Pakistani government Tuesday after marching on Islamabad to demand a peaceful "revolution" and the dissolution of parliament.
Tahir-ul Qadri, 61, delivered an ultimatum in an overnight address to supporters in the heavily fortified capital following a 38-hour march from the eastern city of Lahore that attracted tens of thousands of supporters en route.
Qadri told his followers to camp out overnight, despite chilly temperatures of eight degrees Celsius (46 Fahrenheit), and to advance after daybreak towards parliament, which has been barricaded off with shipping containers.
