A day after the Karachi bomb blasts (If you do not know about it, you are either too immersed in work or have been living under a rock till now), Ms. Bhutto comes out with statements claiming that she knew she would have to face assassination attempts and that she had shortlisted three individuals whom she suspected would try to kill her.
If she knew all this,I assume she might have taken some precautions on her own considering that she does not trust the security forces of her country. She seems smart enough to know of the tried and tested methods of the terrorists in trying to assassinate someone. That method is one in which one bugger with dreams of cavorting with 72 virgins in heaven puts on sundry explosives on his body and goes kaboom in a place where said target would be present. It works best when the kaboom happens in a huge procession where it would be virtually impossible for the security to track each individual present.
When you know that you are going to be targetted, when you know that you will be mostly targetted by a suicide bomber, when you know that suicide bombers work best in a huge crowd, why do you allow such crowds to gather in the first place. Why didnt Ms. Bhutto ask her supporters to celebrate at their houses instead to coming out and become sitting ducks in a possible attack?
It could be that Madam had no clue about it and is just improvising to get mileage. Which shows her bloody insensitivity in making a political issue out of such a tragic happening.
It could also be that she knew about it. She may have thought that the General will not risk a public attack to happen at this time. This is sheer recklessness. And to take advantage of your recklessness requires a thick skin of a politician which Bhutto certainly has.
It also could be that she knew about it. She may have known that it will happen and she let it happen in order to gain mileage. After all she was provided a bulletproof car and had security all around her. Hence her being hurt was very unlikely. This is farfetched and comes underthe category of conspiracy theory. But we are talking about a politician. They are like this only.I am feeling:  annoyed |
