She was taken to hospital in unconscious condition and died while doctors tried to provide medical support.

    Agree that she was a very good leader, but wat the hell are her party workers showing by burning cars? petrol pumps even hospitals and ambulances? If a party worker cant take care of your own assets and is doing everything to destroy them then who would want such a party to rule the country? i wudnt!

    Americans and Jews are the planners in all the terrorist attacks in Pakistan and all over the world (Including WTC, OBL is only a cover story)). These people attempted to kill Musharraf several times and finally killed Ms Bhutto only to create unrest in Pakistan. These clowns are increasing problems for themselves.

    American script of the drama is being followed in Pakistan. I feel the script is somewhat over ambitious and more inclined towards stupidity. The script should be however renamed as Vietnam II or Somalia II.

    With sorrow and grief we the Unitarians in Pakistan condemn the assassination of the former Prime minister Ms. Bhutto in a suicidal attack in Rawalpindi. As per by Doug Muder in the story of Midwinter we the Unitarians in Pakistan has been waiting for a turn since long. The turn of Love; The Love that always seeks to do Good to help and heal; never to hurt or destroy; The Turn of PEACE; The turn of Democracy; The turn of Security of the common people; the turn of …………

    The return of Ms. Bhutto was a hope of the turn to the Unitarians in Pakistan. The turn of equality in our great many challenges from our very existence in Pakistan; the turn of positive changes for our gain and growth but her brutal assassination has rather turned all our expectations to hopelessness.

    With our prayers for her eternal rest in Peace; the condolence to her husband; children; family tribe; friends; associates and all Pakistan who are greatly shocked with this untimely loss. We salute the brave daughter of Pakistan. We announce three days mourn in this grief.

    May be the Turn would come again with its strength to break the bounds of Darkness and hopelessness and bring new shine and warmth upon us. May be ………… May be ………… May be ………… May be ………… May be ………… May be ………… May be …………

    With Sorrow and grief, I am,

    Inderias Dominic Bhatti,
    National Director,
    Unitarians in Pakistan.

    As a human being, I feel really sad for her family. May God give them the strength to deal with this tragedy.

    As a political figure in public domain and whose actions affected life of the general public, her hypocrisy was sickening, her loyalty to Pakistan was none, it was greed for being back in power and to commit corruption again, as evidenced by her reluctance to allow any other party member to lead her party while in exile. Her eloquence was decieving as she changed stances on issues of national interest, made deals and failed to substantiate her arguments and misquoted factual information.

    I’m still confused whether her party is socialist or capitalist oriented? Or is it religiously aligned as the PPP did join forces with the religious parties in the ARD and APDM.

    She simply reiterated her oppositions successful strategy and moderate philosophy to the US to win their support and then tried to claim credit for it, as if it all started during her two previous failed governments. I suspect the west only wanted to support her as they knew she would trade away this country for cheap material gain.

    The culture of the PPP supporters and party activists stems from their leader, where within two days looted and caused damage to private property accross the country, under the garb of anger and sadness. Should such violent and criminal people be allowed to express their choice through voting? Its no surprise what kind of leadership they’ll elect for us.

    It’s quite tragic what happened to benazir bhutto…nobody deserves to die like this….i have completely lost hope for our country because the people who come forward to do something good for the nation are either targeted to death or
    are made to turn down from their offices…n the way these uneducated people go around destroying everything to show their anger and frustration is the pure evidence of why we are considered a Third wolrd country!
