Yes she was pushing for a democratic Pakisthan, and probably assasinated by Al Qaida or Musharraf (yes US ally - that musharraf) ...
Anyone wants to guess where we go from here.
Anyone want to guess how many months it will be before out best friend turns into our worst enemy like Bin Laden, The Taliban etc etc ...
Anyone want to guess how many pieces Pakisthan is going to break into. I am calling for 4 as of right now.
One part for India, one for china, one for US and the other for Afghanisthan. OK I am exaggerating. But Looks like our best friend and our worst enemy could have colluded on this job.
Cool.

I just read this too, god damn f%$k.
This was one of the stories i followed for my application to the RAF for the current affairs work we had to do. The day she arrived back in the country after staying away for her saftey there was an assassination attempt in which they tried to car bomb the bus she was traveling on, for her saftey they used a true to life human shield, an inner crowd behind the security personal made up of trusted people who would act as a buffer if someone tried to attack, which they did and many were killed. Its a shame that so many people believed in her and gave their lives to protect the cause she was working for yet in the end they still got her. The problem in the world is there is more money to be made from chaos than there is peace. Chaos wins because everything is driven by money.
This is a tragety and a disaster. I do not believe for a moment that this was not govenment sponsored. Bush can do nothing because of his lame duck status and illegal and unjust war in Iraq. We will now see government crack down and a military dictatorship. Another bush foreign policy failure. We can only hope that the democrats take office in 08 and the us policy shifts from Iraq to doing what is right for a change
Bush foreign policy failure ... dont make me laugh, Bush cannot even spell foreign or policy or failure ...
Its a Cheney Foreign policy failure ... :cheers: ...
BTW, wasn't Iraq full of oil, and weren't we supposed to get it ... so why the F*(k is it now $4 a gallon. Oh, I get it, "we" meant friends of Dickhead Cheney ... OK I get it.
BTW, mexicans are comming here, meanwhile mexico has tons of oil, why cant each of them bring over 4-5 gallons each. Oil crisis over.
Cool.
Srinath.
I read somewhere that we now have more oil reserves than we ever thought and there is no oil shortage and impending doom - someone isn't telling the truth. Now i do believe that there is plenty oil after a few more large oil fields are discovered, plus all the untapped oil at the pole.
I also believed that the oil belonged to the Iraqi people, until they fired upon us. Then all bets are off. We are now free to take all the damn oil we want. It was their oil, they want to kill each other, we'll give them guns in excange for anything of equal value ... you want to kill us, then we go to a all out war, and winner takes all the oil in the territory that we have just won from you.
And I want 1 tanker full of premium unleaded per mexican at the time of crossing ... OK fine 5 gallons.
Cool.
Srinath.
lol frankie, if the democrats get in then we ll do absolutely nothing :thumb: :laugh:
not to sound like an insensitive prick but how does the death of the former prime minister of pakistan affect me here in the States? :dunno_white:
OK let me put this another way ...
US hunting for Bin Laden. US is taking (Pakisthan president and general who took power in a coup in 1997) Pervez Musharraff's help. US is pushing Musharraff to hold elections and turn it back into a democracy.
Musharraff is letting Bin Laden roam free in the mountains of Pakisthan. AKA, Pakisthan is playing both sides.
Elections were scheduled for Jan 2008 due to US pressure. He cannot even contest really, Benazir has the most likely chance of winning but both the front runners will not be playing both sides. That makes Musharraff the biggest benefactor of the assassination and Al Qaida as the most likely assassins under Musharraff's direction. To put it another way, we'll never catch Al Qaida or Bin laden and we are going to spend several years wasting our military there. We will also not get any oil from there or get russian oil through afganisthan via pipe line.
Cool.
Srinath.
Now they are saying she died by hitting her head. We will never know the truth.
Yes, her and the 20 others. Sorta like all the people on 9/11 died when their heart stopped.
Hey, think about who has to gain the most ... The answer resoundingly is ... Al Qaida.
Cool.
Srinath.
But she is muslin. I think the most likely suspect is the government
Wow ... muslims kill each other all the time.
The govt of course is behind it, they are also behind Al Qaida and behind US. See how well its all working.
Cool.
Srinath.

I think this plan should go into action immediately :thumb: :laugh:
Thanks Scott, as much as I'd love to take credit for that idea, I should say, its not mine. Its Jay Leno's.
Cool.
Srinath.
Nothing to add...but yeah, this is a tragedy. I guess my parents didn't grow in a much happier world though, what with the assassinations of the 60s and 70s.
Frankie, the Dems are not going to get us out of Iraq or anywhere overseas. Only Ron Paul will, and he's a libra-Republican. Yeah.

With all of this happening over there now. What is the U.S.'s next move?
GET THE HELL OUT!
Run away! Lick our wounds and enjoy life on our own Friggin continent!

Al-Qaeda denied responsibility. Usually they don't tend to do this when assassinating a world leader.

I heard that too over the weekend. Fine upstanding organisation that is, no doubt about that ... I dont know why we shouldn't trust them 100% ... :laugh: ...
But ... Yes on the denying responsibility part, makes you think if there wasn't a rouge cell, or a spin off group somewhere that was contracted to do this.
Cool.
Srinath.
It's not a matter of trust...it's a matter of what they stand to gain by admitting it. I can't think of a single Al-Qaeda attack they didn't claim responsibility for. In a sick way, it helps their recruitment.
not to add fuel, but I find it hilarious that some non-US politician gets killed and we spend a ton of time talking about it. and while talking about it we Buddha Loves You about Bush and "his" foreign policy (which we learned from the media who is always right) and in the process invovle the mexican invasion and the so called "oil crisis" which may or maynot exist. In the midst of this we discuss who may or may not have killed the politician and the fact that we will never know the truth.
How in the world are we suppoed to elect a President if we may or may not get the whole or some of the truth from the media about their platform? Oh, and how in the hell can we trust any individual politician to make a decision on the war in iraq when they probably don't know what is going on over their either? Last, but never least, how in God's name can we begin to address the problems with mexico, afganistan, iraq, bin laden, and whatever else when we can't even seem to properly educate our own teenagers that sex=babies that they aren't ready for (mini-spears).
Hmm. Sounds to me like we are culturally riding in the dark without headlights on.
Happy New Year!
Man, they killed a muslim woman ??? one that had populist support or atleast was one of the people's favorties ...
Why would they admit it, lets say they did it to prevent democracy in pakisthan or to extend Musharraff's rule who was their backer. Then taking credit for it will have totally made people revolt and throw Musharraff out.
They dont have a reason to do it, which is why they did it at Musharraff's direction or they were paid off by Musharraff. I'd not take credit unless it was a killing due to principle.
Cool.
Srinath.
