Tariq Ali's analysis of Benazir Bhutto, her clan, and Pakistan's the cut-throat political arena is indispensable for anyone hoping to make any sense out of what occurred yesterday and what the future may hold for the Pakistani people. Ali's essay was published in the London Review of Books back in November and it unburdens you of the need to wade through much of the nonsense you're likely to encounter on this subject elsewhere in the western mainstream media. So as not to delay you any further I'll let Tariq Ali take over from here with,
Daughter of the West.

Bush killed Bhutto because she wasn't towing the line that the Illuminati demanded. :-)
Hey, just dropped by to wish you a Happy New Year. I hope that 2008 brings you health, wealth and happiness.
I noticed your musical interests virtually mirror my own. You didn't copy my profile did you?
Vince Guaraldi, Stan Getz, Paul Desmond, and Steely Dan. Those are my core jazz dudes. I'm also a big fan of Oscar Peterson and Miles Davis.

Rue, I think there's hope for you yet! Happy New Year to you and yours.
PS: I hope you really reflected on the implications of Tariq Ali's essay. The US has no real leverage in Pakistan. Bhutto was on a fools errand which could only have ended the way it did for her. Bad times ahead.
Hey 10:19:
You forgot to also mention the ole lynching tree. I can see your open-mindedness like the rest of the neo-cons to which you so proudly affiliate yourself. I would gladly share a cell with Coldtype.
Sung to the music from the Underdog show:
"Oh where oh where has my Coldtype gone, oh where oh where can he be?"
Not out trumping in New Hamsphire for Mitt I hope.
We have to get the word out on Dennis Kucinich.
