Quoting thehandsom:
Can Musharraf be responsible? I dont think so. If he wanted to kill her, he could have killed her easily any time. And Bhutto Musharraf deal should not be forgotten. Bhutto as PM, Musharraf as president was a good scenario for USA's war on terror. And It would bring legitimicy to Musharraf as well. And USA would not be seen 'dealing with a dictator' anymore.

She was only back in the country a few months and there had already been an attempt on her life. Bhutto had refused a deal with Musharraf so there was not going to be a President/PM scenario. Musharraf wanted her gone and now she is. How very convenient for him.

Quoting teaschip1: Given that 46% of Pakistan is for the Taliban is a scary thought along with the only Middle Eastern Country with Nuclear Weapons.  |
I agree with that too. All the worry about North Korea and Iran, I think Pakistan is truly the most dangerous of the three...

Quoting thehandsom: It is a sad event of course.
But I am still not sure if she should be portrayed as 'the only hope for democracy in Pakistan'.
The political arena is very very different there then the west. Very very slippery indeed. And do not forget there have been many many corruption allegations against her. Her husband used to be known as 'mr 10 percent'. But, again, I am not sure you can find uncorrupt politicians in Pakistan very easily anyway.
Can Musharraf be responsible? I dont think so. If he wanted to kill her, he could have killed her easily any time. And Bhutto Musharraf deal should not be forgotten. Bhutto as PM, Musharraf as president was a good scenario for USA's war on terror. And It would bring legitimicy to Musharraf as well. And USA would not be seen 'dealing with a dictator' anymore.
It might be Al-Qaida. We will see. |
I agree. In fact Al-Qaida have admitted responsibility. I think Musharraf is a lost man, being pushed and pulled by USA on one hand and Talaban on the other.
But it is a sad day for democracy, which is what the Bhutos stood for, and if it was JUST to do with the fact of her being a woman, why are so many Pakistani men in uproar? As soon as she stepped back into Pakistan she knew that her life was at risk.
