Benazir Bhutto's Grave!!

[AbdiWahab252]

AW,

how long has it been since you last worshipped at aideed's grave?

SomaliStar,

I have not been to the Mahdi's grave. If I ever do come into some serious money, I would create a splendid mausoleum for the Mahdi & a Mosque and help fund an institution, The Aideed Center to do research and compile the works and history of the Hawiye Messiah. I would also build a huge 60 Foot bronze statue of the Mahdi in Galkacyo with his arm pointing to Jabertenia Something like this:

Mr 10-20% even named the Jinnah International Airport in Islamabad after his wife and proposed to have her face on the 10 rupee note. What a sorry SOB

I never understood Pakistan's fixation on the Bhutto family, they were and still are one of the most brutally corrupt political families in the world.

Sometimes I don't know if the ISI put the family in power to hide their own agenda, I just don't know how a liberal family became the forefront of Pakistani politics.

The Bhuttos are notoriously corrupt. Correct

But the Bhutto have personal hatred towards the Pakistani Military. The ISI comes under the command of the Army chief. Hence, Bhutto/Zardari alliance with the ISI is a big No-No.

The ISI usually uses the Pakistan Muslim League and the religious parties to hurt the Pakistan People's Party at the polls. Bhutto's formed the PPP.

I see nothing wrong with Benazir's grave. She was a national leader and heroic woman whose life was cut short by the terrorist.

May Allah grant her mercy

There was nothing heroic about Benazir. Just like her father, she thought she was more important than the country. This ultimately led to her downfall. Musharraf was pleading on National TV begging her not to hold public rallies saying there was a clear and credible danger to her life, she refused and attacked him for refusing her to see her "fans." Sadly, Musharraf was right

Her father was a true diplomat and her ascendancy to the PM spot was a major accomplishment due to the fact the military had a tight grip on the country after her father's execution. One tough lady RIP

Correct.

When her father met JFK at the White House as the Pakistan Foreign Minister, JFK was surprised at Zulfaqar Ali Bhutto's ambitions and charisma and said, " if you were an American, you would be in my cabinet."

The young Bhutto smiled and said:

" No, sir. If I was an American, You would be in my cabinet."

This journalist once made a very startling remark about the feudal system in Pakistan. He said, if the feudal lords put their dog on the ballot, the dog will win easily. It is that much entrenched in the South Asian society. Hence, Musharraf was right in saying there was never a democracy in Pakistan. It had a feudal democracy
