I can't believe no one has posted about this. Feelings? Analysis? Group hug?

I barely know who the woman was. I'm sorry, but I make a point of not commenting on people/events I know nothing about.

I always thought she was kind of hot for an older muslim woman.

I feel really bad for my Pakistani bretheren, the good ones don't deserve this bullshit. Plus, she was one hot lady.

Goddamned heathens will get theirs in the end.

lockwoods already getting his.

This was bound to happen sooner or later. It's not like this is the first time something like this had been planned. She had better luck than Aquino in the Phillipines though. Marcos took him out before his feet ever hit the tarmac. There are a lot of powder kegs around this spark. How India reacts to this will be a key to how we react to this.

I'm slightly concerned at the prospect of civil war between "moderates" and real Muslims in a nuclear-armed state, but whaddya gonna do?

I agree with IvorBiggun that civil strife in a country with nukes ain't good. Benazir was really hot when she was younger. Noticed that her corrupt husband Asif Ali Zardari has been chosen to be the new head of the PPP. Zardari stole billions from Pakistan, and frankly someone ought to do the country a favor and assassinate him, too.

moslums are out for trouble!

She had her own brother murdered. If you live by the sword you die by the sword

I won't believe she's dead until I see the moblem post.

Heh heh, that reads like something Daniel Pipes put together. And it's scary when you start to agree wholeheartedly with people like him and Bernard Lewis.

"Bhutto and the Candidates
by David Remnick January 7, 2008

If there was a singular exception to all the petty posturing and vapid mini-dramas of the debates leading up to the Iowa and New Hampshire ballots, it was surely Joe Biden’s response, in Philadelphia, to a question posed by Tim Russert about the Iranian nuclear program. “Would you pledge to the American people that Iran would not build a nuclear bomb on your watch?” Russert asked the assembled Democratic contenders. Barack Obama, Hillary Clinton, and John Edwards played the old survival game of running out the clock, and then came Biden. “We talk about this in isolation,” Biden said. “The fact of the matter is the Iranians may get 2.6 kilograms of highly enriched uranium. But the Pakistanis have hundreds, thousands of kilograms of highly enriched uranium.” Given that Pakistan already has missiles with nuclear warheads, capable of reaching India and Israel, Biden argued, it would be a “bad bargain” if an attack on Iran caused the government of Pakistan to fall. “What is the greatest threat to the United States of America: 2.6 kilograms of highly enriched uranium in Tehran or an out-of-control Pakistan?” he asked. “It’s not close.”

Biden is not immune to the charms of his own intelligence, but in these bewildering days following the murder of Benazir Bhutto it is hard not to recall his moment of clarity and his grasp of historical complexity—the recognition that political decision-making is not a matter of raising three fingers and making a scout’s pledge. Whatever his weaknesses as a candidate, he seems, after thirty-five years in the Senate, possessed of a tragic sense. In this, he presents a helpful contrast to, say, Mike Huckabee who, in his various blithe displays of global ignorance during the campaign, has served to make the man he hopes to succeed seem the incarnation of Talleyrand."

Shit's gotten so bad that thousands of Pakistanis are fleeing to Afghanistan for safety. SOURCE
