President Pervez Musharraf May Stepdown
2008-02-24 07:46:00
The Hindu News Having apparently run out of options, Pakistan's beleaguered President Pervez Musharraf "is considering stepping down in days" to avoid a showdown with the newly elected Parliament in that country. "He (Musharraf) has already started discussing the exit strategy for himself. I think it is now just a matter of days and not months because he would like to make a graceful exit on a high," 'The Sunday Telegraph' quoted one of the President's close confidantes as saying. According to senior aides, Musharraf would prefer to resign rather than waiting to be impeached and forced out of office by the victorious opposition parties who triumphed in last week's general election in that country and announced they would form a coalition government. "He may have made many mistakes, but he genuinely tried to build the country and he doesn't want to destroy it just for the sake of his personal office," an unnamed official close to the President told the British newspaper.

Maybe I have liberated us to actually let women be human beings in public. … There was just a really wonderful moment there when, you know, people I think got a sense of why I do what I do. ? Democratic presidential candidate Hillary Clinton in a Jan. 9 interview with CNN. It’s my party, and I’ll cry if I want to Cry if I want to, cry if I want to You would cry too if it happened to you ? lyrics to “It’s My Party” sung by Leslie Gore, 1963. My own favorite theory is that this week, Hillary was a stand-in for every woman who?s overdosed on multitasking. They grabbed at the opportunity to have kids/go back to school/start a business/become a lawyer. But there are days when they can?t meet everybody?s needs and the men in their lives ? loved ones and otherwise ? make them feel like failures or towers of self-involvement. And the deal is that they can either suck it up or look like a baby. ? Gail Collins, op-ed columnist for The New York Times; Jan. ...
Bolton Faults U.S. in Bhutto Assassination
2008-01-07 02:08:00
Following Benazir Bhutto?s 27 December 2007 assassination in Pakistan, much ink was devoted to the blame game. But this little gem from the always-blunt and sometimes controversial John R. Bolton, former U.S. Ambassador to the United Nations, didn’t receive much press coverage. Bolton believes that the U.S. helped set in motion a chain of events leading to former prime minister Bhutto’s murder.

If a Republican made the gaffes Hillary did on Pakistan they'd never hear the end of it. Miz "35 years' experience" hasn't a clue what's happening there. Hill sounds confident talking with ABC's "This Week" George Stephanopoulos. But she effs up big time. Hot Air video Benazir Bhutto's father was not "assassinated." He was executed on trumped-up charges. Bhutto's Pakistan People's Party doesn't "choose a successor." Only a Bhutto can lead the party founded by her father. That would be her son. Corrupt terrorist toady Musharraf isn't running in the "free and fair elections" as Her Imperial Heinous insists. He was elected in October. PoliticoWho gets the blame? Hillary's ignorance is almost as absurdly fatuous as Pervert Musharraf's insistence that Benazir died after hitting her head on the sunroof. Watch the assassination in slo-mo on Live Leak. Hillary's contention that she risked her life in "dangerous" places while first lady Newsday is absurdly fatuous given the dang...
Video Conclusively Shows Bhutto Was Shot
2007-12-31 23:22:00
It looks like we have a classic cover up on our hands with the Pakistani government. This video was shot from a different angle and it absolutely shows Benazir Bhutto being shot seconds before the suicide bomber detonated himself. The most likely reason for the cover-up is that Musharraf is embarrassed at what little control he ...
On Benazir Bhuto?s Assassination
2007-12-29 13:25:00
The news of Benazir Bhutto’s murder first came to me through a text message from my philosophy student friend Dada on the same evening of the Pakistani opposition leader’s assassination in Rawalpindi. I jestingly replied to him the next day that he shouldn’t worry about it. After all, wasn’t this the same Bhutto who said ?I ...
Pimp My Hide
2007-12-28 15:37:00
Am I the only one who sees through the vulture presidential candidates feeding off the dead body of Benazir Bhutto? Thumping their chests proclaiming their foreign policy expertise. John Edwards: "I just talked with Musharraf..." Benazir had more conviction, principles, and guts than these goons combined. She was willing to put her life on the line for the country she loved. Ironically HarperCollins just got the manuscript for Bhutto's book and is rushing to get it into print. NYPIronically Parade magazine's January 6 cover is an interview with Benazir. ParadeThe corrupt terrorist-coddling thug Pakistan prez Musharraf is blaming al Qaeda. But CNN's Wolf Blitzer produced a smoking gun email from Benazir fingering Musharraf if she were involuntarily pushed off the planet. Huff Post videoThe Bush Administration has to be privately furious with Musharraf because it is obvious he orchestrated her assassination days before the January 8th elections there. Musharraf couldn't afford to ...

Benazir Bhutto Biography
2007-12-27 22:04:00
Benazir Bhutto (IPA: [be?n?zi?r b????o?]; 21 June 1953 - 27 December 2007) was a Pakistan politician. Bhutto was the first woman elected to lead a Muslim state, having been twice elected Prime Minister of Pakistan. She was sworn in for the first time in 1988 but removed from office 20 months later under orders of then-president Ghulam Ishaq Khan on grounds of alleged corruption. In 1993 Bhutto was re-elected but was again removed in 1996 on similar charges, this time by President Farooq Leghari.Bhutto went into self-imposed exile in Dubai in 1998, where she remained until she returned to Pakistan on October 18, 2007, after reaching an understanding with General Musharraf by which she was granted amnesty and all corruption charges were withdrawn.[1]She was the eldest child of former premier Zulfikar Ali Bhutto, a Pakistani of Sindhi descent, and Begum Nusrat Bhutto, a Pakistani of Iranian-Kurdish descent. Her paternal grandfather was Sir Shah Nawaz Bhutto who came to Larkana Sindh be...
Vultures (presidential and otherwise) descend on Pakistan?s chaos
2007-12-27 21:07:00
By now you know that Benazir Bhutto is dead and Pakistan is in turmoil. I can’t say anything that Euphrosyne didn’t already say beautifully, so I won’t belabor what is already known. I also recommend Stirling Newberry’s comments on what this means for America and our declining empire. Never one to pass up an opportunity to make himself look good using others’ deaths as the backdrop, Rudy Giuliani was quick to post a statement that the Terrorists ™ must be stopped from continuing their War On Us (caps are his, not mine). And he wasn’t the last. CNN has a complete list of Presidential candidates’ reactions to Bhutto’s assassination, and I’m given to understand that the chattering class is already whipping itself into orgasmic fervor speculating on which of them this will benefit the most. I agree with A.J. Rossmiller that claiming this will somehow benefit Hillary and Giuliani because they’re the most hawkish is ludi...
The Bhutto Assassination
2007-12-27 17:26:00
Understandably, many are quick to believe that Pakistani President Pervez Musharraf was directly responsible for today’s murder of Benazir Bhutto. It is highly unlikely that Musharraf was responsible, because while he obviously had concerns about her beating him in next month’s elections, her murder is about the worst thing that could happen to him politically. Bhutto was ...

My former U.S. foreign relations prof in grad school was the former CIA station chief in Pakistan. Savior Benazir Bhutto was assassinated today after a speech in Rawalpindi. Shot before the suicide dude blew himself up. Sky News Here's the last photo of her taken right before she was killed. The person with the most to gain by offing her? Corrupt Osama shill President Pervez Musharraf. The Hansel and Gretel bread crumbs lead to the creep's doorstep. The Bush Administration won't finger the two-faced thug publicly. Just saw former secretary of state Madeline Albright on MSNBC doing the diplomatic dance. Now retired General Wesley Clark blaming terrorists inside Pakistan and bizarrely branding the killing a "subtle" act. Subtle? General, Musharraf was in bed with Osama AND Bush. Bush wanted to get rid of Musharraf big time. The untrustworthy slimeball wasn't playing ball. They conspired to spirit Miz Benazir out of exile to challenge the two-timing thug. The threatened Musharraf w...

Democracy and US Foreign Policy ? What about Pervez Musharraf?
2007-11-28 09:18:00
By Christopher McGuiness Spreading democracy has been a key feature of American foreign policy for centuries, and central to the neoconservative and neoliberal presidential administrative agendas of the past three decades. It is precisely for this reason that President Bush’s recent defence of Pakistani President Pervez Musharraf is so contradictory. Pakistan has effectively been under martial law ...

Imagine yourself as Pervez Musharraf, the 64 year-old military ruler of Pakistan.
