The reporter was featured on Fox earlier. I don't buy the mulitple sniper theory. All the stories agree Bhutto was struck and killed while she was sticking through the sunroof, trying to duck from there etc.

"....Bhutto's armored limousine was shot by multiple snipers whose armor-piercing bullets penetrated the vehicle, hitting the former premier five times in the head, chest, and neck......"

She would have been a bloody mess and there would be no covering it up with all her supporters around.

The assassination of Benazir Bhutto looks more like a complex operation, planned carefully, with decoys and serious preparation

Huh? The only "complex" seems to have been Ms. Bhutto's own--a "martyr complex". Because if she had kept her foolish head inside the car she would still be alive. She repeatedly made it easy for people to kill her by taking unnecessary security risks against recommendations.

add this one to the matrix - if the militants didn’t do this and it really was an inside job the PPP is going to have a fit

Alleged Al-Qaeda official Mehsud denies killing Bhutto: spokesman

Posted: 29 December 2007 1552 hrs

PESHAWAR, Pakistan : An alleged Al-Qaeda leader Baitullah Mehsud, blamed by the Pakistan government for killing Benazir Bhutto, denied any involvement in her death, his spokesman told AFP on Saturday.

“He had no involvement in this attack,” spokesman Maulana Omar said in a telephone call. “This is a conspiracy of the government, army and intelligence agencies.”

The spokesman said he was calling from Pakistan’s Waziristan area, a lawless tribal region where Pakistani government forces have been battling Islamist militants.

“It is against tribal tradition and custom to attack a woman,” Omar said.

He said the transcript released by the government, allegedly of a phone call between Mehsud and a militant discussing Bhutto’s death after the fact, was a “drama” and expressed sadness over her assassination on Thursday.

He said it would have been “impossible” for militants to get through the security cordon around the campaign rally where she was killed.

“Benazir was not only a leader of Pakistan but also a leader of international fame. We express our deep grief and shock over her death,” Omar said. - AFP/ch

In more accurate terms, it would be the local “Taliban” rather than the “AQ” made up of foreigners. It’s well known pro-Taliban Pakistanis within the intel of Pakistan.
