The Father and the Son

Comment: Interestingly, as per my knowledge from insiders, there was no will left by Her. How can she assign Her son as Chairman when He cannot contest election and Cannot became Prime Minister for further 15 to 16 years !! Are we living in stone-age, when emperor / queen's son is born to sit on throne. It is also shameful for party P4 (PPP-P) big guns that none of them can rule the party. Is it possible in Democratic America or UK that Bush or Gordon Brown is killed and their son / daughter / wife is nominated as their successor not by democratically consensus of party leaders but by producing a Will, allegedly written by the SOUL and the nominee is to be accepted by every party leader ! What a mystery, What a country and What a party!
If her Will is really true, it means She herself is against democracy as she nominated her son (having zero knowledge of politics) as her political Heir. Otherwise, the Will is false. PML leaders exploit it!
By the way, it was always said by P4 spokesman and also said in front of Swiss court also that A2Z (Asif Ali Zardari) is seriously ill and cannot travel. Can someone comment on this by seeing the widened smiley face of A2Z in recent press conference and newsweek this same page under "Still in Control". Also i dont know what happened to Arrest Warrants issued against him in Pakistan and Red notices issued by Interpol. Lets wait when he would be arrested, for past or his recent work in Rawalpindi with the hands of his Old friends of jail...

OK, Cheney, what's your next move? Since your are in charge, I assume you have a plan B.

Baliwal Zardari will never make it to be Prime Minister of Pakistan. He will either be executed of left behind by the US who is clearly fed up with the Bhutto dynasty. The US is in favour of putting in a person who has no public support (no major political party) but rely solely on the US to be in power in Pakistan.

So forget about democracy, it is a farce!

condolences to the bhuttos. but my greatest sympathies go out to all the bhutto supporters who have also lost their lives. Lets not forget about those that supported Benazir and welcomed her back to Pakistan. We have heard very very little about the suppoters who have died and those that have been injured.

hajirazi .....how true...you are absolutely correct. Mr Ten Percent is now the king-maker. He was involved in Murtaza Bhutto's murder too.

THE MADNESS CONTINUES, family dynasty not democracy, CorruPtion not transParency. What a mistake. Let the boy grow uP, and earn his right to be leader.JUST LIKE BUSH.
MUSLIMS THAT ARE MODERATES AND peaceful are susceptible to the indoctrination of the JIHAD chapter. At any time a young MUSLIM can change and carry out an attack in the name of GOD. THIS IS WHY THE CHApter of JIHAD is so dangerous. WE have kids in this country who have grown up in this country, falling under the spell. Suicide bombers are even doctors and lawyers who are citizens in western countries. The crusades happened centuries ago. Your religion has not evolved it is still in the MEDIEVAL AGES and this is a big problem. This is why BHUTTO was so visciously assassinated. IT WAS A TERRORIST WEARING BLACK GLASSES THAT CARRIED OUT THE ASSISSINATION' WOW WHAT A MESSAGE, BHUTTO USED TO WEAR AMERICAN BLACK GLASSES. THERE are MILLIONS OF pakistanis that have rejected western culture and they have sent their message. IT HAS BEEN HEARD WITH A BANG AROUND THE WORLD

Comment: Is this democracy or a family dynasty. Either you have democracy or you do not. Handing leadership to family members is the source of corruption. What a chocie, corruption and an American runned government or the Military. We need to let people choose their destiny if not we will be stuck where we do not belong. I as an American am distrurbed that we are medaling all around the world, while people on this side are starving, homeless, without health care ectt.... THis is crazy, just because Bhutto dies we would choose a nut like Guilliani.
Even moderate Muslims are swayed by the JIHAD CHApter. The offspring of these moderates have already carried out attacks in England and have tried in Canada and AMerica.Wow. Homegrown Citizens. What is amazing is how they are influenced by the Iraq war. They turn on the T.V and become enraged. It is like they have smelled "BAD BARBECUE". Their only hope to strike back is JIHAD. Remember Muslims have been indoctrinating their own for centuries. They have finally perfected it. This chapter allows leaders to indoctrinate their people all around the world. The " Ayattolah" has used this doctrine on Salman Rushdie who is an INDIAN. The only way to deal with a nuclear threat, is in private. We should gurantee all countries FREE AND FAIR ELECTIONS. However if the people choose an extremist government that wants to use weapons of mass destruction then they must understand the consequences. IT IS THESE SAME CONSEQUENCES THAT have DETERed RUSSIA FROM USING THEIR NUCLEAR ARSERNAL AS MUSCLE. WE WILL Annihlate YOU if you threaten with nuclear weapons. That is why the Middle East Governments threaten Israel because they know better. The same goes for pakistan, any government that takes power after Free and Fair Elections, will be delivered the same message, In addition, they will assist us in the HUNT FOR BIN LADEN. Keeping Bin LADEN alive seems to be making a lot of people rich.

I am not surprised at little Zardari being anointed to head PPP because he was born with his mother's silver foot in his mouth and this decision only reinforces that fact.

Lets see when it will be revealed that her husband was one behind her killing. Typical Pakistani case, murder of wife by husband capturing both wealth and dynasty.

People should respect the fact that Asif Zardari is living up to his nick name, i.e.; Mr. Ten Percent. He wants Amin to be the next Prime Minister, his son to be the party Chairman, Naheed Khan to take care of communications, etc. All Asif wants is 10% of the limelight. No surprises, right!

Politics are perhaps devoid of any kind of feelings and delicate relationships,if not completely,certainly partially it has been shown by the leadership of PPP and the heirs of the deceased leader.They were and are not disturbed and shocked by her untimely death but are playing the politics on her name.Rightly has been said that there is no kinship in kingship.Mr.Bilawal zardari bhutto (althogh both are sparate castes and families) is not a politician and will be exploited by the landlords and "waderas"of the sindh and punjab alike.The party is going to hijacked by the oldplayers of polity in the name of bhuttos.

The whole thing smells funny. Naming Bhutto's 19 year old son as co-chairman of Pakistan Peoples Party vividly illustrate the whole democracy thing of Bhutto dynasty is really a joke.

If the husband "will be in charge for now", it doesn't seem to me that the son "is picked to lead". Something a bit fishy there, don't you think so Harvey ? Besides, (1) I'd consider a 19 yr old sort of mammaries on a boar at this point, (2) has a ring of despotism to it all, (3) he might should rethink the whole deal as his relatives seem to have had a bit of bad luck in the political arena.

If I were this young guy's parent, I would definitely prevent him from entering the dangerous political game considering what happened to his grandfather, uncles and mothers.

His mother's death is needless death. It didn't achieve anything. There is no heroism in it.

Common sense tells us that we need to be alive to achieve our goals. Why enters into a lawless state where people determine to kill you by using any means possible.

This young guy can contribute to his country or humanity without jepardizing his own life. Is the warning sign not clear enough after the death of his grandfather, mother and uncles.

Is now necessary publiquer about who make to killer Benazir Butto. I personalment don't look that the for islan is interessant the death of Benazir.

Funny...these people talk endlessly about democracy and act like "royals" handing down leadership on the basis of next to kin. The irony is that even under royal succession convention, it should be Murtaza's son Zulfiqar Ali Bhutto, Jr., who should be the rightful heir, not the son of Mr. Ten Percent.
