A Hero for Democracy?

No one person can bring change, it takes a movement. Bhutto's death could have started this movement. Or it could of ended a movement. Only time will tell. This was prophesized that a woman leader would be assisinated and that it would impact the whole globe. Everyone thought it was a possible referal to an American president. Who thought it would have been Bhutto. THe extremist movement still hold grudges against the Clinton Administration. Hillary Clinton could fuel the extremist cause. This extremist movement views "things" different. I felt bad when I heard the news partly because Bhutto was a women. To us it is an unspeakable crime but to others who belong to powerful extermist movements it is "nothing". These people do not care. We need Obama as president in order to fuel the peace process. Our best chance at peace and security is OBAMA.

the musim world will riot in the streets today. Not because they care one lick about Ms. Bhutto. They do not. It is because the muslim world waits poised on a hair trigger to rush into the streets and bn the American flag. Unfortunately their are many in this country who encourage the foolishness. I will not be long before teh mentally damaged in this country start spinning theories to explain why this murder was the fault of the USA or the Bush administration. Before the crazy theories start floatng around the web maybe we should consider that Ms. Bhutto was just as corru and no more a proponent of democracy (at least not when she had power) than Mushariff and maybe because of that past there were people in her own country who wanted to kill her. Crazy as it may sound to our overactive sense of sel-importance, this murder may not have had anything to do with the ole USA. Just a theory.

Pakistan, like most of the Muslim world is poised on a hair-trigger waiting to go off for he smallest of reason or no reason at all. Because f that the muslim world will flood the streets to burn the US flag and effigies of Bush and other western leaders. If Ms. Bhutto were motivated to bring demoracy to Pakistan then this loss will be a great one for the world. However, her past corrupt use of power in that country suggests that she is no greater democrat than Mushariff. Either way, the intellectually challenged in the US will soon try and pin this murder on George Bush, the USA or both. Just in case it is not our fault maybe we should consider that people in her own county remember her brutal and corrupt use of power and are willing to kill to make sure it does not make a comeback. I would not spend too much time on that though, its easier to just blame the USA.

darking If any politician in this country had the desire and courage to fight for this country as she did for her's we would not be in the worst situation political and financially since the great depression. God bless her and her country!!!!

You make snakes your allies then act incredulous when they bite your hand.
It's time America rids itself of these insufferable alliances that were formed by a ludicrous foreign policy authored by a totally incompetent administration.

You know how you get rid of snakes?
You cut their heads off.

Someone needs to run spell check or do proof reading on this story. Unless the spelling of "military" has changed recently.....

Maybe it's time that America rids itself of these insufferable alliances that were formed by the totally inept foreign policies of a president who is wrong in just about everything he does.

My prayers go out to the family of Benazir Bhutto and the people of Pakistan. Not knowing that much about her, it's evident she died for her beliefs and those of the people she brought hope to. She was a very courageous woman, continuing to deliver her message of democracy and peace in the region all-the-time knowing that death was always within reach. I don't agree that Democracy works for all countries, but would give anyone the same respect who fought for such convictions in such perilous surroundings.

Regardless of whether one supported Bhutto or opposed it, whether the allegations of corruption were true or false. At the end of the day, it is the extremists who are going to have the last laugh. It will be a sad day indeed when a nation of millions would succumb to the few who are hell bent on dying and killing others along the process all in the name of their twisted ideology.

If the world truly cares about that volatile region, it will do a great service by helping in eliminating the reasons for such extremism rather than reacting to the outcome. Billions of dollars in aid is not going to achieve anything other than line the pockets of the corrupt few that are having a hay day - all in the name of eliminating terrorism in that region. Today is a dark day indeed.

I am saddened with grief for such a courageous woman. I hope Pakistan can find their way through this time of darkness.

It is Musharaf and his henchmen who plannaed this assasination.Sadly,all Benazir's pleas to Washington to intervene on behalf of civil society against Musharaf's dictatorship went unattended..We will reap the whirlwind of a fractured country and the West an Iraq in making.

Bhutto was an evil woman. Sharif is no better...the country is in move civil unrest since both of these traitors returned to Pakistan. At least with Musharraf, the country has seen moderinzed roads and utilites as well as better economy. All Bhutto offered was a false hope to the poor. All Sharif offers is a pass for the extermists. Musharraf is the least of the evil that is Pakistan's political system.

Hopefully now all energies will go to show to the majority of Pakistanis the violent and extremist nature of the islamic fundamentalism, as driven by Al Qaida. If on the contrary the death of Benazir Bhutto will be blamed of Musharraf himself, it is going to be a major political disaster not only for Pakistan but for the world

The death of Bhutto is a direct result of the disaster that is the Bush/Cheney/Big Oil/Zionist cabal that is destroying the United States
