3rd martyrdom anniversary of "Daughter of the East"




Today on 27 December 2007, Benazir Bhutto was killed while leaving a campaign rally for the PPP at Liaquat National Bagh, RawalPindi, where she had given a spirited address to party supporters in the run-up to the January 2008 parliamentary elections. After entering her bulletproof vehicle, BB stood up through its sunroof to wave to the crowds. At this point, a gunman fired shots at her and subsequently explosives were detonated near the vehicle killing approximately 20 people. Mohtarma was critically wounded and was rushed to Rawalpindi General Hospital. She was taken into surgery and pronounced dead. It was the most tragic and dreadful evening in the history of Pakistan, in the death of Benazir Bhutto, the world has lost an extremely talented woman of valor.

A large number of admirers and supporters of former prime minister and former chairperson Pakistan People'sParty (PPP) Benazir Bhutto continued to pour-in to pay homage to the late leader who became the first woman leader of a Muslim nation in modern history.

So She was more qualified and even more corrupted than her father and husband and bro combined! and played politics on her familys grave whom the nation HAD to mourn for 30 years for nothing! why do ppl still continue mourning her now forgetting she was amortal and to make way for zardari juniors to do it all over again is just beyond belief?!

The death of Benazir Bhutto had a profound affect on even those of us across the world who longed to see the positive change that she sought to bring to the country of Pakistan. I shall, forever, feel great sadness for Pakistan's loss of this beautifully brave woman. On the anniversary of Bhutto's death this year, I sat and talked with my young son about the historical importance of her life and the world's great loss.
