Benazir Bhutto dead

It has been confirmed. Former Prime Minister and one of the major contenders in the upcoming elections, Ms Benazir Bhutto, has been killed in a bomb blast after speaking at a political rally in Rawalpindi. The rally was being held at Liaquat Bagh, named after the first Prime Minister of Pakistan who was also assassinated at the same spot.

It is a sorry state of affairs that things have only gotten worse in the 60-year history of this country. I shudder to think what things will be like for us in the aftermath of this terrible tragedy.

I can’t believe that she was assassinated by a 15-year-old! What a shock! This is a crazy part of the world, and we are going to have to reassess our handling of such situations. I have spoken with several people from the middle east, and they all say that she was assassinated because it would be a major blow to the Americans. What are we doing wrong?
