Benazir Bhutto 'killed in blast'

Pakistani former Prime Minister Benazir Bhutto has
been killed in a presumed suicide attack, a military spokesman has
announced on TV.
Earlier reports said Ms Bhutto had only been injured and taken to hospital.
Ms Bhutto had just addressed a pre-election rally in the town of Rawalpindi when the bomb went off.
At least 15 other people are reported killed in the
attack and several more were injured. Ms Bhutto had twice been the
country's prime minister.

She was campaigning ahead of elections due in January.
'She expired'
The explosion occurred close to an entrance gate of the park in Rawalpindi where Ms Bhutto had been speaking.

The blast caused carnage at the rally

PPP spokesman Farhatullah Babar initially said that Ms Bhutto was safe. But later he told the BBC that Ms Bhutto had died.
Another member of the PPP, Wasif Ali Khan, told the
Associated Press news agency from the Rawalpindi General Hospital: "At
6:16 pm (1316 GMT) she expired."
Ms Bhutto returned from self-imposed exile in October after years out of Pakistan where she had faced corruption charges.
Her return was the result of a power-sharing agreement
with President Musharraf in which he granted an amnesty that covered
the court cases she was facing.
Since her return relations with Mr Musharraf have broken down.
On the day of her return she led a motor cavalcade
through the city of Karachi. It was hit by a double suicide attack that
left some 130 dead.
The PPP has the largest support in the country.
Earlier on Thursday at least four people were killed
ahead of an election rally that Pakistan's former Prime Minister Nawaz
Sharif was preparing to attend close to Rawalpindi.

Country's gonna go to shit, extremist militants are going to take over their nuclear weapons facilities, India will pre-emptively attack these facilities out of fear and then we'll have WW3 on our hands.

w00t.

thats the worst case scenario..

i think the UN should intervene

UN can't do shit. All bark, no bite. Such a toothless organisation.

so what do u expect to happen... and what "should" happen

one more thing... why the hell hasnt bin ladin been cought yet? they managed to find saddam in a hole.. and still cant find osama with his happy campers?!

im writing a new book called : osama and his invisible cloak

well many believe that the fucker is dead already =] but u know americans are americans u never know what they think about.

lost in that chicks boobs scorpio!

damn

Don't think anythign 'should' happen. Rather just wait and see what happens.

As for Osama, was probably a CIA pawn....oooo, conspiracies

yeah... sounds like a plot to a new movie ;p

dont you sometimes feel like theres a lot "more" happening in the world that the news isnt aware of or telling us?

i feel like the world is too big for a bunch of news channels to completely cover

i dont believe politicians.. all they do is promise and deliver shit.

news is good for reporting natural disasters... cuz you know no man was behind that.

or is there!!

of course. News agencies don't know shit.

probably more conspiracies around the world than you can shake a stick at.

how are things going along with your studies? what got you into political science?

do u think FBI agents are reading this forum right now?

maybe we can ask them to join or something... hahahah

spread the word make us grow

Actually, you might not be far off. The US and UK use this satellite called 'Echelon' which monitors all electronic communications - text messages, internet, phone calls etc. It picks up key words such as 'bomb' 'Washington DC' 'plan' etc.

what an incredibly boring job.

id go mental if i had to read through ppl's msgs and texts.

talk about a stalkers heaven.

Mmm, well, it only filters the things out where certain words are mentioned. But yeah, careful waht you say. They don't just monitor US/UK populations, they monitor it globally.

sad ass job...

anyway, back to our topic

what else is new in the world....

nothing is in the world that could let you cheer up or smile..maybe get surprised and upset only !

The key word is corruption, its like a disease and in my opinion worse than any other dis. Dr.s and technology always solve human problems and make humans either live more or die peacefully. Well, if people have general principles and co op with general standards just like for example Iso standards and many variety of differnt fields we would have lived in a peacefull world at least societies. and never end up in wars and shit on news.

When I open the news especially my freinds and I all wait for the sports section. Why??? b/c nothing is intresting, either lies of future events or sad facts in the past.

Corruption in My opinion has a soul and a heart, many people belive its the devil him self who keeps reviving corruption or any bad things happen to this world.

If you look closely at all religions and even with people who dont belive in anything there are always corrupted people, where the corruption ate their souls day by day, and when some one try to stop this flow he becomes an enemy instead of an angel.

I've always watched the news and got fed up with whats going on in the world, b/c I always link them back to corruption.

What I see now is that no matter how people get raised from their parents through : morality, ethics, right Vs wrong..the human nature is always greedy = power = corruption.

Belive me, 90 % of the world who gets control of power loose their selves and get corrupted in the process of staying in power.

there is nothig better to watch after bad news than :

LOOOL

theres a difference between watching the news, and believing everything you hear in the news.

you watch the news to know what's going on, and not to formulate an opinion.

eg. news: theres a war in iraq. people are dying. FACT.

news: who is in charge, whos to blame, why is this happening? when will it end? OPINION.

and i dont think power corrupts... you have to be corrupt to REACH that power in the first place.

But is there really a war in Iraq?

whats that supposed to mean?

we know there are soldiers.. we know there are sporadic bombs.. we knows innocent ppl are getting killed.

those are easy to establish

but WHO/WHY .. i dont know

But do we know?

Have you ever watched 'Wag the Dog'?

no i havent... should i?

and im not saying everything is a conspiracy.. im just saying that i dont blieve politicians tell us the whole story.. i think a lot in the world is happening, and ppl THINK they know whats going around by just clicking through news channels.
but do news channels cover everything? i dont think so.

i think thats what JB was trying to say... theres a lot of corruption in the world. we need a savior. we demand lower prices for ps3 and 360 games. we have to have faster broadband connections

I agree the cheaper things are the less corruption and peaceful minds will rise

1-especially lowering video games prices
2- electricity
3-gas
4- trip to moon
5- trip to disney land
6- free insurance
7- free health & medical insurance
you add what you think that would make our world a better place

JB for PRESIDENT.... (and to be assassinated the 2nd day )
