Re: BREAKING NEWS: BENAZIR BHUTTO DEAD
Inna Lillahhe Waina Ilahi Rajioun
This is one of the most painful and tragic days in the history of Pakistan, just like when her father Zulfikar Ali Bhutto was also murdered 28 years ago.
Benazir Bhutto was the most charismatic, intelligent, politically astute, and genuinely popular leader in the Pakistani political arena. No other political leader can even come close to matching her brilliance of mind and determined spirit, and she has left a gaping hole that no others can fill.
Her traumatic death is a loss for Pakistan as a whole, whether we agreed with some of her politics or not, because it has robbed our nation of a true leader, who provided inspiration to tens of millions. It’s something we should all mourn with our hearts, and remember her fondly and with respect. Remember her good points and achievements.
This is the most difficult time for her three children and family, whom we should all think about and pray for as well. Of course there will be a reaction from her supporters, which is natural, but this is the time we as Pakistani’s must start to come together and finally unite. Otherwise the conspirators and terrorists will win.
It’s time our leaders showed real leadership, and bring people together. It’s Pakistan that comes first not politics or power.
