So: an Islamist assassin kills a corrupt Socialist politician in Pakistan. I’m supposed to choose sides? Ho hum. As the punchline to the joke goes “I’ll have a diet coke”

Benazir Bhutto carried a lot of baggage.

I wonder what she did to piss off the Clintons.

Benazir Bhutto, the Hillary Clinton of Pakistan or Hillary Clinton the Benazir Bhutto of USA?

Another take:

Benazir Bhutto, a kleptocrat in a Hermes scarf

she was so much of a crook and feudal tyrant, she didn’t have a chance right?.... She would have had some votes, because a lot of those people rode on her coat tails. The rest of the population don’t care because they EXPECT their leaders to be corrupt. Different values, different mid sets.

It would have been foolish for our government leaders to not have considered what Bhutto’s return to Pakistan and her eventual assassination would do to the region. I can’t think that the powers that be did not consider it. To me, Bhutto’s assassination was like a “given” in a geometry problem. It was bound to happen. When was the question.

Even if she had lived long enough to win the election, she was obviously not smart enough to keep from harm’s way and probably would not have lived much longer anyways.

Peters knows his stuff for sure. I can’t believe how crazy the people in Pak are acting. Guess, they needed someone to worship. They will be better off without her.

Well, Hitlery did say that "Benazir Bhutto was my friend."

Another friend of the Klintoons who turns up dead.
