Re: New Video Appears To Show Bhutto Being Shot
I have seen Pakistan government video released by Ch 4 after cleaning the video of spurious video noises and making thing cleaner. From video and Ch 4 conclusion, it seems that BB was hit by bullet because her shawl and hair flew in air before she completely ducked (or fell) into the car.
Though it does not matter that cause of her death was bullet shot or hitting sunroof handle, I think that video is shown to give impression that she was shot. It is obvious from video that shawl and hair flew still there is no reason to believe that bullet did hit her (though it does not matter). The reason for shawl and hair to fly could be many. One is that bullet did brush her, second is that when she ducked swiftly it is natural that shawl and hair would fly.
Most ridiculous thing in the video was that statement, government by saying that she did not got hit by bullet government is hiding that if they killed her or not. What a farce. The video was released by government. Actually government first statement was that BB got killed by bullets. It was later that when hospital gave different version government came up with new story. Actually, government spokesman (Cheema) did not even said that he saw BB body. He just said that, this is what hospital has claimed (something that was contrary to what government earlier claimed).
I could not see any reason for government to lie and it would be lie to say that she got killed of bullet if she did not, or say that she did not got killed by bullet when she did. Government has nothing to gain from how she got killed, be that because mad dog bit her, assassin killed her or she fell from roof.
Actually even PPP could not gain anything from how she got killed, be that bomb, bullet or whatever. But PPP created controversy because they just want to defame government and Musharraf government is stupid because it is playing in their hand.
I think that since controversy is created by PPP for whatever reason using lies, government should come up with political statement too, be that lie or truth (could be true too) that:
From new investigation, though government is still investigating, it is learned that Zardari hired men to kill BB because relation of BB and Zardari was bad, such that BB did not trusted Zardari in anything and did not even gave any ticket to Zardari in this election. She actually discarded Zardari from politics and that is why Zardari did not accompany her when she returned to Pakistan. Zardari hired men tried to kill her in Karachi but did not succeeded, and that is why she went to Dubai earlier to warn Zardari to keep his hand off her.
Later Zardari in collision with some PPP political leaders and NS, her biggest political rival of BB, made a conspiracy to kill her and succeeded in Liaquat bagh. Few days ago, NS went to Larkana to meet Zardari. Government can claim that governmetn has come up with clues and are investigating on the matter.
Government can point out to people that proof of some PPP party leaders colluded with Zardari in her killing is that, it was first time she was left alone to come out of car sun roof to wave to supporters, but none others came out because they knew what was to happen. In past BB has never been left alone to come out of sunroof the way she did in Pindi. Another proof is that, after her death Zardari brought out a will that BB made Zardari chairman of PPP, when BB did not even gave him ticket to contest in election on PPP ticket. Zardari brought will and than passed chairmanship to Bilawal to show that he was trusted by BB and that he is not interested in chairmanship of PPP, even though it is obvious that he would run PPP as guardian of his son.
Let see, how NS, Zardari, and political leaders of PPP, deal with such statements and come up trying to convince public that they are not involved. I think that since NS and PPP are using all sort of dirty games with lies and whatever blames, for their political gains, government should do the same. To make things more real, government can put name of NS and Zardari on ECL, saying that they are not allowed to go abroad because they are under investigation on BB murder charge** (note, both of them are not contesting election and are not candidates).**
