Tracing the Bhutto story - 17 Oct 07

Pakistan is gearing up for the expected return of Benazir Bhutto, the former prime minister, this week. Bhutto and her family have been a formidable force in Pakistani politics - her father was a former president and prime minister of the country. Tim Friend travelled to the family's ancestral village of Nodero in Sindh province to find out more about the Bhutto legacy.

Bush invokes God all the time, but no reasonable person believes he is really a Christian. I can kill someone in "Allah's" name, and call myself "Muslim" but it doesn't make it so. Islam is not to blame for the murder, Empire, Oil, Money, and War is to blame for her murder.

Roti Kapra aur Makaan ...even when dead the Bhuttos have better abodes than the poor Pakis.

most of these politician r basterds they will do anythin for their power, did anyone notice the poverty n illitracy in benzir n her father consitency which is shown in dis clip, they don't want people around them to be educated, so they can't ask them questions,

ya she had a 4.35 million pound mansion in surrey and in Emirate Hills. Probably worth another 10 million dollars

very true dear mykalwhite...

only " the war for oil " is the only cause of disturbance in the world. some 40 years back we could travel through entire Afghanistan with out any fear and those so called Pushtoon " Taliban " used to take care of us every where in the region and they also used to give us food water and shelter in our journey across Afghanistan...

Every side has its extremes. Even Christianity. Just because a few wackjob extremists go around blowing people up doesn't mean the whole religion is like that.

So she deserves to be murdered? Someone who works from a democratic angle to unseat a militaristic dictator may indeed turn out to be a bad person, but that is for the people to decide in an election, not you, and certainly not the American Government.

One of my friends, a doctor who performed abortions in Florida, was murdered by a man who believed he was fulfilling Christ's will by killing him. It would be foolish to conclude that Christianity is to blame from my friend's murder, as it's foolish to conclude that Islam is to blame for this act of evil.

Benazir Bhutto and Her whole family care nothing about Pakistan, they just want power so that they can brainwash the poor people of Pakistan, and STEAL money from the POOR people in Pakistan, so that they can build mansions for themselves around the entire WORLD!

She was more than just a paki. Go back to England, we need less of you people around. :D
