Binazir Bhutto operated against highly charged currents. It was a matter of time but the risk was already too high. |

| She knew the volatile situation and she was willing to lay down her life for democracy.she was brave .may god bless her .she already told musaraf before leaving dubai about possible assasins but he took no notice.she follow in her father's footsteps.he was hang by the earleir military rulers for betraying the country .butto claim that if she won the elections she will invite the u.s army to operate within pakistan ,that was a death sentence to her self. |

| Mbay, I wish you would change the title of this topic to read Benazir Bhutto assassinated as "killed in attack" doesn't do justice to this form of political silencing. |

Brave woman.May her saul rest in peace.Amen.
I was only surprised in the first place why she agreed to share power with a devil like Musharaf?Now that she is gone, My mind goes to the next one the hit list.

This should be an opportunity for all peace-loving people to condemn terrorists and extremists. Ms. Bhutto represented the contradictions of Pakistan. A woman, Harvard educated, pro-Western, pro-democracy, in an impoverish religious conservative country. Bhutto's assassination today is a result of religious extremism and Musharaf's failure to provide adequate security for her. Her opposition to Musharaf made her no friend of the military general. She is a brave and courageous woman who stood up for democracy in Pakistan, and championed the cause of the Pakistani poor. She will certainly get her majestic place in history, unlike the 'no-person' who killed her. May her dear soul rest in peace and may her murderer burn in eternal hell fire... |

MeMe, it does not make a difference if Mbay changed the title. Mbay's writing reveals his own mindset, and I am not a psychologist. |

Mbay, I wish you would change the title of this topic to read Benazir Bhutto assassinated as "killed in attack" doesn't do justice to this form of political silencing. Meme, sorry but i was not the only one who called it so. BBC news, as very English. yesterday put it in this way too. http://news.bbc.co.uk/2/hi/business/7162445.stm actual the title doesnt bring that much confusion but tragic that occur. this is nothing but another lost of democracy and another danger for the peace in that area which should means for us all. She was mother not only to her own but to the most pakistanis as well, she was very marvelous and generous women and most of people has profits from it including me at my time as madrasa student there. She believes her way and she knew what was coming but that doesn't excluded her for what she is took as fascinating way. May Allahu Taala welcome her.
MeMe, it does not make a difference if Mbay changed the title. Mbay's writing reveals his own mindset, and I am not a psychologist Key lo! you most be kidding, are you saying that i support this Coward act!

Benzir Butu leaves a big void in Pakistani Politics. She will always be remembered for her courage and conviction of standing up for what she believed in. May her soul rest in perfect peace.

| Benazir Bhutto wanted to establish a stable and social democracy in her home country. She came from a progressive political family and she should be honored and remembered for being positive and optimistic enough to want to come back and fight for her beliefs. The latest news is that Al Qaida claimed to have sent the suicide bomber...... |

| I am not so convinced that Benazir Bhutto was a flawless democrat and that she would have been good for Pakistan (the US Army operating in Pakistan?? Another Iraq or Afghanistan???), but she should not end like that. She was a strong and courageous woman. I don't agree with her political strategies, but she has my deep respect. |

Great and brave woman she indeed was.Now that she is gone I wonder who would fill the big vacuum her assasination has created in pakistan.There is always a price to pay to stand up against dictatorship. R.I.P.
I wonder who would take such a bold stance in our home Gambia against Musharaf's co- dictator Jammeh? |

You see Bhutto's struggle is deeper than the struggle against a military dictatorship. It is a struggle for the 'soul' of Pakistan, a country with almost 50% illiteracy rate, where too many people are poor and get their 'lethal dose' of education from run-down 'madrassas'. Bhutto is a champion of the Pakistani poor despite her her own well-to-do background, hence her alienation with the business, political and military elite. But perhaps Bhutto also represent the future of women in the muslim world in general. Furthermore, her populist and progressive policies endeared her to many around the world. Her claim that she will allow U.S. military to operate in Pakistan is no different , in my view, from the presidential hopeful Barack Obama's proclamation that he will strike terrorist suspects within the borders of Pakistan. Both Bhutto and Obama made those statements with the understanding that there are large areas of Pakistani border areas that are "no-man's land", not under the control of the government. These tribal areas represent a dangerous cocktail of lawlessness, banditry, arms and drug traficking, as well as terrorist activity against the pakistani government and the interest of U.S and its European allies. Bhutto intends to stand tough against lawlessness and extremism, that is why she became a target for militant assassins... |
