Pakistani politician Benazir Bhutto is dead. She was shot by her assassin, who then blew himself up.

Bhutto’s archenemy, Pakistani dictator Pervez Musharraf, who has the most to gain from her death, tried to make it look as though he hadn’t wished for such a thing:

Musharraf blamed Islamic extremists for Bhutto’s death and said he would redouble his efforts to fight them.

“This is the work of those terrorists with whom we are engaged in war,” he said in a nationally televised speech. “I have been saying that the nation faces the greatest threats from these terrorists. … We will not rest until we eliminate these terrorists and root them out.”

Right, right, right. “Terrorists.” Gotcha. Anything bad happens, it’s dem damn dirty terr’rists.

Isn’t it weird how the terrorists’ are so kean to assassinate a politician with no actual power who may or may not have had a shot at the presidency? Especially when the presidency is currently occupied by a secular militant Bush-crony who hated Bhutto?

Hmmm….

Meanwhile, our esteemed president was quick to blame teh terr’rists too:

In the U.S., a tense looking President Bush strongly condemned the attack “by murderous extremists who are trying to undermine Pakistan’s democracy.”

Undermine Pakistanti democracy? You mean, like by supporting a dictator instead of demonstrators agitating for liberty? I guess that makes Bush a “murderous extremist.” Even more interesting is how he already knows that it was some lone gunman (“extremist” is a great catch-all) when there hasn’t been an investigation yet.

In fact, all of the neocon/fascist front have already condemned the attack, from Sarkozy to Karzai to Gordon Brown to the Pope. They were so quick with statements you have to wonder if they knew it was coming. And every single one of them has accepted Musharraf’s version of events without question.

Interesting….

Of course, Americans are in the thrall of a malicious and corrupt media establishment. There will be no questioning the official version of events.

The Pakistanis at least are not so stupid:

Many chanted slogans against Musharraf, accusing him of complicity in her killing.

“We repeatedly informed the government to provide her proper security and appropriate equipment … but they paid no heed to our requests,” Malik said.

As news of her death spread, angry supporters took to the streets.

In Pakistan it’s obvious. The president’s most esteemed foe is dead with a bullet in her neck. Do the fucking math.

Musharraf is a military man. The military is the most powerful institution in Pakistan and their intelligence service, the ISI, is a known collaborator with the CIA (some say it’s just a CIA puppet). The motive, means and opportunity are all right there. But we Americans — you know home of the brave, land of the free — will swallow the Musharraf propaganda like manna because our Dear Leader and his corrupt, oligarchical establishment have their fingers in this wicked little pie.

Pakistan is necessary for the perpetuation of other frauds, including the al Qaeda myth. That’s why control of Pakistan cannot be allowed to return to the hands of a democrat. The secret could be revealed, and that is most certainly worth killing for.

This is not the first attempt on Bhutto’s life:

Bhutto had returned to Pakistan from an eight-year exile on Oct. 18. On the same day, she narrowly escaped injury when her homecoming parade in Karachi was targeted in a suicide attack that killed more than 140 people.

That was Musharraf’s first “welcome back” message. Now, he has said “goodbye.”

Now here comes the lie:

Islamic militants linked to al-Qaida and the Taliban hated Bhutto for her close ties to the Americans and support for the war on terrorism. A local Taliban leader reportedly threatened to greet Bhutto’s return to the country with suicide bombings.

That’s a straight-up lie. First of all the Taliban has no claim on Pakistan; they are (ostensibly) Afghanis who are more concerned with fighting the Bush-puppet Hamad Karzai. Second, if al Qaeda truly hated Bush and the Americans they would target Musharraf, since he is Bush’s closest and most powerful ally in Pakistan. Bhutto’s death does nothing but strengthen his hand. The truth is that the CIA and the ISI worked together to train and create al Qaeda for bin Laden as a convenient scapegoat for anything and everything.

Now al Qaeda is getting the blame again. How convenient for a dictator like Musharraf (or Bush) to have a shadowy, ultra-evil organization to blame for everything. How convenient that al Qaeda apparently hates the same people that Bush and Musharraf do. How convenient that al Qaeda never seems to manage to kill right-wing hardliners but has amazing success with leftist pro-liberty politicians. How extremely fucking convenient.

The CIA/ISI/al-Qaeda axis is just a modern day Gestapo. They are an all-purpose assassination squad under control of the evil proto-fascist oligarchs who rule this planet.

It’s time for people to wake up and see through the lies. How many more people have to die before we finally learn we’re being played for fools?

UPDATE 12/28: The police charged with providing security for Bhutto left their posts shortly before the assassination.

Perhaps more shockingly, an attendee at the rally where Bhutto was killed says police charged with protecting her “abandoned their posts,” leaving just a handful of Bhutto’s own bodyguards protecting her.

As commenter pk_analyst points out below Bhutto was shot with an AK-47 rifle. Now the spinning, changing storylines and Big Lies come into play. In order to do a proper cover-up the authorities will have to eliminate the gun (many are saying she hit her head on some sort of lever instead of taking a bullet) and throw all the blame on mysertious al Qaeda members who may or may not even exist.

While some intelligence officials, especially within the US, were quick to finger al Qaeda militants as responsible for Bhutto’s death, it remains unclear precisely who was responsible and some speculation has centered on Pakistan’s intelligence service, the ISI, its military or even forces loyal to the current president Pervez Musharraf. Rawalpindi, where Bhutto was killed, is the garrison city that houses the Pakistani military’s headquarters.

Just to be clear, “intelligence officials” almost certainly means “CIA officials.” The CIA is busily spinning the press. This is misinformation, folks. You are being lied to indirectly by your government and somewhat unwittingly by the media. Just so you know.

    Dude, I agree to the main theme of your blog. A few more things that support your claim:1) Eye-witnesses claim that Bhutto was shot with an AK-47. How the hell did the ‘terrorist’ manage to take the gun there with such tight security as is claimed by the Musharraf government? I mean, we’re talking about a 3-foot long rifle here, not a pistol that someone could hide in his pocket.2) For the sake of argument, let’s assume that Al-Qaeda men bribed their way in to the security and shot Bhutto, but did they also bribe the fire department to send fire trucks and literally wash-out the crime scene??? Just imagine, within a few hours of the assassination, the crime scene is washed-out with fire trucks and all the evidence is destroyed. And just today, the Interior Ministry spokesman said that they’ve called in forensic experts… what for??? There is nothing left to examine! This is such a joke.3) The Interior Ministry spokesman released the transcripts of an alleged conversation that took place between the Al-Qaeda leader, Bait’ullah Mehsood and guy in charge of the execution of the assassination. According to the transcript, Bait’ullah Mehsood, who is the alleged mastermind of the plan, is told by his man that “WE were the one’s who did it” (Transcript text: ‘They were our men there’). Isn’t it strange that the mastermind did not know that the assassins were his men??? Isn’t it strange that the he didn’t even know about the fine details of such a high profile assassination??? The guy didn’t even know that his men were going to conduct the assassination, let alone the details. This is all so ridiculous!I hope people wake up!

    I agree that Musharraf definitely had the most to gain from Bhutto’s death.Its interesting that when Musharraf addressed the Pakistani nation to condemn Bhutto’s death he did not once say that those responsible will be brought to justice. He just said she was killed by the same terrorists the nation has been fighting and we will continue the fight.While many people believe the religious extremists also had great motive to remove Bhutto and had repeatedly threatened her, it is crucial to realize that many of the extremist groups have ties to Pakistan’s political establishment, including elements of the government loyal to President Pervez Musharraf, as well as close ties to the military and its intelligence agencies.And, indeed, Bhutto herself had openly talked about and criticized these links many a time.So even IF credible evidence linking the attack to religious extremists is found (which has not been till now…the contradictory details of her death is an obvious attempt to cover up the truth, and the intercepted conversation simply too convenient and fake), that does not absolve others such as the army, Musharraf, his political party, or ISI of any possible culpability.

    Wow! So terrorists have to be Al Qaeda? Even if Bhutto was murdered by Mushariff it is still an act of terroism and doesn’t have to be labeled as Al Qaeda. Mushariff is a dictator, as is Bhutto! This is how they deal with problems over there and I wouldn’t expect any over-analyzing liberal over here to understand that. Bhutto wanted complete and unfettered control of Pakistan and this is the reason for her secret military meetings. She was just as much a terroist as the one who killed her. She comes from a long line of dictating murderers, much like her father and she was imprisoned twice. Replacing one dicator with another is not getting anywhere. She is not a heroin and should not be viewed as one.
