That poor brave woman ripped off Pakistan to the tune of 1.5 billion dollars, She was no Mother Theresa.

That said, she wasn’t deserving of this.

That Bhutto "ripped off Pakistan to the tune of 1.5 billion dollars" is still not confirmed. You have to take into account that Pakistani politicians and military leaders seem to frequently set out to discredit one another (to be fair, not that far off from what American politicians do, but to a larger degree). Accusing a political rival or inconvenient leader on trumped up corruption charges isn't new in the 'third world.'

However, of the opinion that people went a bit to easy on her because she's pretty. Bhutto probably was corrupt or at least not the greatest leader, but looks bestowed admiration, and more crucially, media coverage.

Again, there are parallels in American government.
