It appears she may have been assassinated by someone riding in her vehicle - AFTER the explosion failed to kill her.

rop needs to be outlawed Internationally... there is no other religion that uses terror as it's only political tool... to practice it should mean instant death.

Lots of threads/posts about the facts of the case - Bhutto dead from a terrorist attack.

But what were the political implications?

Was she a “moderate” muslim?

IE, what’s the effect on the USA?

The Islamofascists had managed to drive Benazir Bhutto from office once before, and even out of Pakistan. They believe they can prevent her from ever assuming office again, even if it means causing her death.

It is not as if Pervez Musharraf were behind these attacks in any way, except that it would probably remove the strongest rival he faces. These Islamofacists don’t like the idea, even, of a FEMALE (which to them is some lesser species) to assume power in an Islamic country.

Mrs. Bhutto may be personally very popular with the Pakistani people, but the Islamofacists are not much interested in democratic appeal, either.

The sooner the militant Islamic factor is taken out of Middle and Far East politics, the better. But somehow, the Islamofascists do not see things that way.
