Bhutto's assanination was as predictable as the the sun coming up tomorrow

Islamist nutjobs, which are overrunning Pak right now hate, not necessarily in the order (1) Women (2) Westerners (3) Non-Islamists (4) America and her allies Bhutto was all four of these, and was to them ,an upstart woman who was off the reservatiion they hated her with a passion that no sane and rational person could ever know or understand. the day she got off the plane, they tried and murder her and it was only a 1/1000 chance that she made it through that- she ended up tieing her shoe when the one year old laden with bombs was handed up to her armored vehicle most of the others around here were vaporized by the large bomb Now what kind of IDIOT is going to have a 1 mph parade through islamic nutjobland ? the only reason why musharraf has made it through is he DOESNT do public apperarances. Pakistan is the most dangerous place on planet earth , even if you have full Islamofascist credentials like Bin Laden Bin Laden has a 46% approval, Musharraf 37% , Bush 9% in Pakistan The bottom line is that she was a corrupt selfish person from a long line of them. Her father was deposed and hung for it in the 70s. This NY Post article sums it up FOR the next several days, you're going to read and hear a great deal of pious nonsense in the wake of the assassination of Pakistan's former prime minister, Benazir. Her country's better off without her. She may serve Pakistan better after her death than she did in life. We need have no sympathy with her Islamist assassin and the extremists behind him to recognize that Bhutto was corrupt, divisive, dishonest and utterly devoid of genuine concern for her country. She was a splendid con, persuading otherwise cynical Western politicians and "hardheaded" journalists that she was not only a brave woman crusading in the Islamic wilderness, but also a thoroughbred democrat. In fact, Bhutto was a frivolously wealthy feudal landlord amid bleak poverty. The scion of a thieving political dynasty, she was always more concerned with power than with the wellbeing of the average Pakistani. Her program remained one of old-school patronage, not increased productivity or social decency. Educated in expensive Western schools, she permitted Pakistan's feeble education system to rot - opening the door to Islamists and their religious schools. During her years as prime minister, Pakistan went backward, not forward. Her husband looted shamelessly and ended up fleeing the country, pursued by the courts. The Islamist threat - which she artfully played both ways - spread like cancer. But she always knew how to work Westerners - unlike the hapless Gen. Pervez Musharraf, who sought the best for his tormented country but never knew how to package himself. Military regimes are never appealing to Western sensibilities. Yet, there are desperate hours when they provide the only, slim hope for a country nearing collapse. Democracy is certainly preferable - but, unfortunately, it's not always immediately possible. Like spoiled children, we have to have it now - and damn the consequences And that is the bottom line Right now , Pak needs Musharraf to maintain stability They have nukes and we CANNOT afford to allow that nation to be taken over by Islamonutjobs. Again, may Ms Bhutto rest in peace. She was a strong advocate for womens right in the awful muslim world and a strong advocate AGAINST abortion. But again ,her violent death , which I beleive she wanted to happen, was very very predictable, as predictable as the sun coming up evevry day.
