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.
When will DU blame Bush for this? Can we get a count-down clock!
