What a shame, she was a gutsy woman and deserved better. I wouldn't be looking at the CIA or Bush but the President of Pakistan? I believe entirely within the realm of possibility.
My comment was about the poster's CIA and Bush speculation, I wasn't commenting beyond that.
How do you know it was religious extremists who did it. Maybe it was the President of that country in coordination with our CIA? Bush may even have been involved?
NBC is reporting that the majority of the people in Pakistan believe that their President was responsible for the assassination. Even if he is not, if enough people believe it to be true then chaos will occur.
Yeah, or maybe it was them aliens from Independence Day with their crazy tentacles and mind-control powers who did it.
Islam killed her, plain and simple. No need to look for the black helicopters here.
In light of the growing chaos in Pakistan, a nuclear armed country that has known to harbor the Taliban and some of the most radical extremist in the Middle East, it makes one wonder what the worlds response to this will be. I mean, look how long it too to convince Musharaff to take off his little dictators uniform. Seems the Middle East just got a good bit more worrisome.
I suppose that my first inclination is not to think that they have nuclear weapons, (which is why I'm a teacher and not a politician), but to think how devestating this must be for the people of Pakistan, whether there was corruption under her rule in the past or not, to have their hopes for change dashed must be almost unbearable - with the state of emergency last month and Musharraf now wanting to cancel elections in Jan. So so sad.
Aside from that, what makes you think gas prices will go up? It isn't a petroleum exporter.
Speculators fear that the instability in Pakistan will spread to neighboring nations which do export petroleum. Basically, its just an excuse to further steal from the American consumer.
