Power is addictive, she new what she was doing, she offered nothing but maintenance of the status-quo. I don't think destabilization was in Mushariffes interest but I do think it was in the interest of you know who. A divided chaotic Pakistan profits who?

Quoting darkbeaver Al-Kaduh seems to be a powerful well financed organization that is able to strike any where on the globe at any time.

Don't they? Seem to be, that is. Or maybe they're just a bunch of crazies, sitting in their mom's cave's basements, taking credit for everything.
Me, too :canada:

Musharraf himself has also been a target.

Anyone with strings attached to the US are targets.

Meanwhile, President Bush has condemned this attempt to undermine Pakistan's democracy...

..."The United States strongly condemns this cowardly act by murderous extremists who are trying to undermine Pakistan's democracy," said Bush, who looked tense and took no questions....

That is scary and has been scary for a while. What is pathetic is that some on this thread are already trying to put Bush behind this murder. Maybe start another stupid frigging conspiracy.grow up a-holes.


I'm sure Logic is getting it all tied together as we speak....I await his verdict with baited breath...

If anything good can come from this it could be moderates finding enough anger to start their own version of jihad.

Moderation works for some things not for others, the murderers of 9/11 don't believe in moderation, they believe in full spectrum domination, because they know nothing else will save them this time. haha

The video of her coffin being carried out of hospital is a powerful image.

She sure had heart and determination. I hope young women in that area of world find their own determination from this event to confront the cave-dwellers.
