Suicide Attack in Pakistan kills Benazir Bhutto

[99.vikram]

Just saw this on the news. Apparently there were some shots fired before a suicide bomber injured Benazir Bhutto as she was leaving a rally. 40 minutes later she died at the Rawalpindi General Hospital.

An attack on a political rally killed the Pakistani opposition leader Benazir Bhutto near the capital, Islamabad, Thursday. Witnesses said Ms. Bhutto was fired upon before the blast, and an official from her party said Ms. Bhutto was further injured by the explosion, which was apparently caused by a suicide attacker.

At least a dozen more people were killed. “At 6:16 p.m. she expired,” said Wasif Ali Khan, a member of Ms. Bhutto’s party who was at Rawalpindi General Hospital where she was taken after the attack, according to The Associated Press.

Here's the full article.

Former PM Nawaz Sharief, Benazir Bhutto and the present president Pervez Musharraf were the three leading candidates in the first real elections to be held after president Musharraf ousted Sharief in a coup back in 1999. So now there may not even be an election if Musharraf declares an emergency again (and I can't blame him if he does).

You'd think the army would have taken her security seriously after the last suicide bombing just weeks ago. If they can kill Bhutto, what makes Musharraf or Nawaz Sharief any safer?

Easy, Musharraf is the present head of Pakistan plus he has total respect from the armed services. That means he untouchable.

:smoking:

 

[Phobie]

Just heard about this, wow. I mean I could see it happening but didn't EXPECT it as such, even after that attempt a while ago.

He's hated by a good percentage of Pakistanis. And the extremist fundies hate him. There have been so many attempts on his life already - as BBC said, he's been lucky to survive some of them. The army can't do much when any person in a crowd could be a suicide bomber. Now that he's campaigning for the elections, he will be exposed to even more risk.

Islam, religion of peace!

Suicide bomber in the Middle-East? Nothing new...

 

[The Monkey]

This isn't gonna end well.

Was she killed by the bullets of the blast, BTW?

 

[Lucid]

Why people get in an uproar whenever somebody on these forums trash talks the Middle East is beyond me.

They're savages.

 

[Pesmerga]

Who got in an uproar?

 

[Lucid]

Who got in an uproar?

I mean in general, people on these forums are so sensitive when it comes to the Middle East/Middle Easterns.

There's no reason to defend them in conversations, I mean some of them are good people but 90% of them are brainless savages hellbent on killing the 'infidels'.

But in a way you could probably say the same about the human race as a whole.

Because here is the Internet.

Completely wrong section. Hey guys it's the Bourne Identity!

She knew it was coming.

 

[Pulse]

Politics in the middle east never cease to amuse me. Let's blow up our opposition, that'll benefit our cause and country.

Pakistan is not in the middle east, you ignorant retards. :hmph:

 

[lePobz]

Political assassination imho.

 

[Pesmerga]

It's close enough. Semantics lol.

 

[Lucid]

Okay, it's still a Muslim country where people strap bombs to themselves.

 

[99.vikram]

Political assassination imho.

Musharraf has enough to worry about without having to deal with an embarrassing and messy incident like this. Nawaz has been out of Pakistan for the last few years. Who else would gain anything from her death?

It's your regular terrorist act. To ruin the elections, most probably.

 

[soulslicer]

Oh my god. This is terrible, I don't even know what to say, it means there would be only one contender for the elections.

I bet it's an extremist bastard who hates women coming to power

 

[lePobz]

Musharraf has nothing to lose, it's already slipping away from him fast. This move gives him everything - And he has the perfect excuse - Blame it on terrorists. Just like America.

I blame him.

 

[soulslicer]

" Don't worry about the world coming to an end today. It's already tomorrow in the middle east and Pakistan."

fixed lepobz, that's how your signature should be

EDIT: (I don't wanna post another post) Lol at xlucidix, that is exactly what Muslims are like now, fighting all the time, but with new tools like c4 and nukes haha. sigged

 

[elrasho]

I say Judgment Day is long away so fu$k is, they will all get their comupance

 

[Lucid]

There's been fighting going on over there for over 4000 years already.
The only thing different now is that they've got C4 and nukes.

So, the end of days is probably pretty ****ing nigh for them.

 

[elrasho]

Pakistan is a muslim country (apaprently) but what I dont get is why they behave like this. Don't they read the Quran?? This life is just a past time, a sport if you will, so why the hell are they soooo hell bent on power/money/respect??

90% of the people in the middle east want to kill people?

You're an idiot. Seriously.

 

[Solaris]

And Pakistan isn't even in the middle east.

 

[Lucid]

It was a random percentage that I felt was fairly accurate.
Take a look at the news, look at articles online and talk to soldiers who were there.

The Middle East isn't a part of the world that's worth saving since they can't even unf*ck themselves.
All we ever see in the headlines are "Suicide bombing kills _____ _____", I have yet to read anything positive that's happened over there.

If you can find something positive to say about the Middle East, please tell me.

Does it even matter if Pakistan's not in the Middle East or not? These ****ing cocksucking terrorist Muslims brought the war over there.
Therefore it's a candidate for hate.

I honestly don't give a shit what you think about me.
It's a public forum.

I read about murder in this country on a daily basis. Far more murders happen here than any killing in the middle east (exluding the ****ed up mess we created in Iraq). Clearly that means that 99.9% of Americans are savages that just want to kill.

Seriously, think before you post something that idiotic next time.

 

[Lucid]

There's been murders going on in the Middle East for over four ****ing thousand years.

Far more killings than in this country.

We are talking present day. In the present day there are more people killed here on a daily basis than in the middle east due to murder. According to your idiotic logic 99.999% of americans are savages.

Do you really want to keep defending this idiotc point you made? Take my advice and drop it.

You said middle easterns; I've met hundreds of people of such ethnicity who are not murderers, therefore, you're a racist asshole.

 

[AKIRA]

ok it's mind numbingly obvious that xlucidx is just another stupid red neck. It'd be best just to ignore is retarded ramblings and generalizations about the middle east. lol

 

[Lucid]

Yes. Ignore the stupid brainwashed red neck.

I don't really want to continue the argument any longer, since you guys love sand negros so damn much I'll drop it here. :|

 

[Hullu]

it truly is strange how differently they can interpret one and same book. And their whole mindset is so different from ours, they only care about their 'own' people. Maybe it's the environment they've grown up in, makes it impossible to think independently it would seem..

 

[Acepilotf14]

Racism is something that won't ever be abolished as long as we're different. I don't really see any reason to give a crap about it.
Just because you think you're not racist doesn't mean you aren't. We've all had racist thoughts. I really don't see any reason why he can't voice his opinion on the matter.

Also, Akira is a hypocrite.

 

[PvtRyan]

I'm not racist but I really hate brown people.

 

[No Limit]

Yes. Ignore the stupid brainwashed red neck.

Beautiful.

 

[AKIRA]

well i have no idea why my post was deleted? i actually forgot what i wrote

and yes, i remember when i made generalizations about americans earlier in the month, but this guy just seems to back my post up. I'd love to see american cities get bombed and being occupied by another countries military for some reason killing hundreds of people a day.

Killing thousands more of innocent people will certainly solve the problem. Great ****ing idea. *Insert sarcasm tag here*
