Assassination Of A Leader

I've been watching the news most of the day to get as much information about the death of Benazir Bhutto as I can.

Those of us who have studied the Near East and the subcontinent for any length of time know just how important Benazir Bhutto was. It is a truly sad day.

Ms. Kitty has written more fully on being scared for leaders. I recommend her post to you.

Assassination is not a new trick in hoodlum's bags. The real shame is that one will never be able to stop extremists bent on making a point.

Perhaps so, but it can be fun capturing them on video and uploading it to YouTube, or should I say U*UTube?
