being not completely familiar with the political reality in pak, i am afraid that after Ms. Benazir there may not be any politician worth the blood to be eligible for the post of PM in these times of Pak. India too saw its share of bad times in form of emergency, but then whether fortunately or otherwise the GoP of India recognised its mistake and things rectified. I hope the political system of Pak too gets the same realisation.

I tend to agree with Hina that we do not know the truth..the real truth…and I don’t think we will ever come to know but having seen and read about the geopolitical scenarios I think it is much more than what meets the eye. It is a conspiracy against the existence of Pakistan planned by world powers and executed by occupiers of our motherland.
As a person I pray for her and all those who lost their lives…they are gone..and sooner or later we will follow. The best we can do for our fellow muslims is to pray for them specially when they can not do so for themselves.

I agree with you that the death of Benazir, the person, can not bring about the downfall of Pakistan. However, the significance of the event of her death lies in the fact that she was the leader of a political party that was widely expected to do rather well in an upcoming general election.

It is an ill-omen for the development of democratic institutions in the country, just as the recent scuttling of an independent judiciary was.

As for corruption, the political system in this part of the world is so rotten that honest politicians, if any, are hardly allowed to rise, as the system is largely populated by corrupt people.

My prayers are for the nation. We don’t know the whole truth. We can’t tell who is right, and who is wrong. Conspiracies, deception through media, etc.
Allah help us!

I’m worried about my university. A mob attacked it!
