Benazir Bhutto assassinated
This makes me sad.
Such elegance and grace in a politician, a heart that led her to do
what was right, not popular, even if that meant she would follow in the
steps of her father and brother before her. I still remember when she
was first elected ... the furor over whether a female should rule
Pakistan ... and in the end they got the best ruler in their tumultuous
history. In they end, they destroyed that which could save them. Not the
first time and certainly not the last but one that I feel deeply.
