Benazir Bhutto killed in suicide bombing

[Gadjodilo]

Anyhoo, the elections have been postponed until Feb 18..... loads of time for more sh*t to hit the fan and for Musharraf to find a reason to postpone things again. One Pakistani analyst made the point that elections were held in places like Iraq and Afghanistan where the disorder was far worse. There's no reason why they needed to postpone the vote.

Nawaz Sharif is playing a very slimy game. He hounded the Benazir Bhutto when he was in power. Then last week after she was killed, he was calling her his sister. At that stage, he was saying he'd boycott the elections if they were held on Jan 8. Now, he's lambasting the government for postponing them......

It appears that the pistol was an unusual 9mm used by army special forces. The bomber was obviously an unexpected nasty shock for the shooter. The question is was the bomber sent by the same people who sent the shooter or was he another group whose timing was bad luck for the shooter. The dress of the shooter and the bomber are markedy different. I think the shooter expected to walk away as cool as could be.

But surely a round from a 9mm pistol would not penetrate an "armoured" car - whatever about an AK47. Also, the shooter could hardly have expected her to stick her head out of the sunroof so it looks like he got "lucky".

The use of the pistol was to increase his chances of escape because he would not have stood out before the shooting. It seems that she took few precautions in the usual course of events.

Not sure about your last point there - the car had a modified sun roof specifically to allow her to stand and wave to her people. She had done this before and would have been expected to do so as she did.

Haven't read all the posts so may be repeating other peoples comments but doesn't look like Al Queda were the shooter. A good conspiracy buff would argue that "they" arranged a shooter and facilitated Al Queda to liquidate the shooter and make it look like death by Al Queda bomber - hence the government insistence that death was not caused by a bullet.

yeah, thats sort of where i was going when i said this:

Bhutto was shot dead, two bullets - one to the head, one to the neck

The government has lied, and said that she hit the handle for the sun-roof, despite the sunroof having no blood, and her seat being covered in it.
Video footage shows the Suicide bomber was a different person to the assassin.

The assassin was a pro, two kill shots from three bullets in a crowded messy area. Limited visability, large crowd, no detection til the shots were fired - its a pro.

Was the assassin hired?

Did the assassin know there was also a suicide bomber?
Was the suicide bomber dispatched to kill the assassin?

The government is lying, the question is why?

I suspect the ISI hired both the assassin, and the bomber to remove the assassin. Jack ruby with a self destruct button, if you will.

On Bhutto's Assassination:

I pretty sure now that Musharraf has fallen out with one Mr. Dick Cheney.
You see Cheney is desperate to manufacture a case to launch a Nuclear War on Iran and Pakistan is required to be at the forefront. A position Musharraf clearly has rejected. A process of destabilisation is under way in Pakistan and the US and the UK will do their best to overthrow Musharraf or twist his arm to play ball. Responsibility for Bhutto's death will be in part laid at his door and of course , earlier in 2007, Al C.I.A da , I mean Al Queda's chief, Osama Bin Laden has called for war on Pakistan.

At this point, I will remind my political colleagues, that the innocent looking UK is advocating preemptive strike (a war of aggression) on Iran. This is the ULTIMATE WAR CRIME BY THE NUREMBERG STANDARD.
See George Monbiots article in todays Guardian.
http://www.guardian.co.uk/commentisfree ... 93,00.html

And why Bhuttos assassination was the set up of a sacrificial lamb:

http://www.theherald.co.uk/news/foreign ... threat.php

US special forces snatch squads are on standby to seize or disable Pakistan's nuclear arsenal in the event of a collapse of government authority or the outbreak of civil war following the assassination of Benazir Bhutto.

The troops, augmented by volunteer scientists from America's Nuclear Emergency Search Team organisation, are under orders to take control of an estimated 60 warheads dispersed around six to 10 high-security Pakistani military bases.

Military sources say contingency plans have been reviewed over the past three days to prevent any of Pakistan's atomic weapons falling into the hands of Islamic extremists if the administration of President Pervez Musharraf appears threatened by civil unrest

Update:
http://www.foxnews.com/story/0,2933,322126,00.html

ISLAMABAD, Pakistan — President Pervez Musharraf said in an interview published Friday that U.S. troops would be regarded as invaders if they crossed into Pakistan to hunt Al Qaeda militants.




I am absolutely certain now that Musharraf was getting his testicles squeezed by Dick Cheney. A classical destabilisation is taking place in Pakistan and Bhutto is the sacrificial lamb to sell the justification to invade to the public.

"If they (US TROOPS) come without our permission, that's against the sovereignty of Pakistan. I challenge anybody coming into our mountains. They would regret that day," he said in the interview."




It seems these freaks are wetting their pants at the prospect.



There is no telling how many wars it will take to secure freedom in the homeland.

Oh dear, now where do I start Your post is idiotic on so many levels. When you say things like "All the above horrors have equally been carried out in the name of Israel", I have to wonder if it is stupidity or insanity or are you just not well. Now that might sound like I'm mocking you or attacking you, but the truth is; I'm not sure if I should be pitying you or laughing at you.

[quote:2fvw0ad8]Of course its Idiotic to you -who cares.
If being able to turn the screw on you is insane, then good for me.
Apart from Airline Hijacking, Israel deliberately kills women, children, babies, kidnaps (eg Mordechai Vanunu) assassinates (eg such as a blind old man in a wheelchair -Sheikh Yassin )

Sorry L'Chaim, I apologise about the Hijacking mistake I made ... it's actually worse:

U.K. file on Entebbe contains claim that Israel behind hijacking

By Haaretz Service
http://www.haaretz.com/hasen/spages/865937.html


Newly released British documents contain a claim by an unnamed contact that the Shin Bet security service collaborated with the Popular Front for the Liberation of Palestine to hijack the June 1976 flight from Israel that was diverted to Entebbe, Uganda, the BBC reported Friday.
Israel's rescue of the dozens of hostages taken in the hijacking of the Air France plane, popularly known as the Entebbe raid, is considered one of the most daring and successful operations in Israeli history. Elite Israel Defense Forces troops stormed the airport where the hostages, many of them Israeli, were held and overpowered the hijackers and Ugandan soldiers.

Although the captors used the hijacking to demand the release of Palestinians or Palestinian supporters, a British government file on the incident quotes the unnamed source as telling a British diplomat in Paris that Israel was behind the hijacking. The claim is not known to be backed up by corroborating evidence, and the file does not make it clear whether the British government took the claim seriously.

"The operation was designed to torpedo the PLO's standing in France and to prevent what they see as a growing rapprochement between the PLO and the Americans," the BBC report said British diplomat D.H. Colvin wrote in the document, citing his source.

Ah you should have saved that for April 1st

I loved the bit about the unnamed source, and the claim is not known to be backed up by corroborating evidence, and the file does not make it clear whether the British government took the claim seriously.

But you know what? When it comes to Israel, fiction very easily moves into fact and the paranoia about Israel makes otherwise sane people believe the most outrageous urban myths
