OMG, why is it when someone comes along that could do some good some fucking nutters kill them.

She was a great woman and very brave and could have made a huge difference.

Well they are all fucked now, and the innocents will suffer for it as always.

Very sad news

Oh God. Not for real?...Oh it is real. Oh no.

My god.

Awful.

I have just heard this on the 3pm bulletin. God help Pakistan - God help the world.

SpareWheel · 27/12/2007 15:08

God almighty - what a waste.

But in a country where lawyers riot and supreme court judges are held under house arrest, anything is possible. I think we need a Marshall Plan for Pakistan to ensure it has a representative and inclusive elected government.

If the country descends into anarchy, what of the nuclear weapons held there?

FlllightAttendant · 27/12/2007 15:12

I was thinking that, but surely they won't want to bomb themselves...

Terrifying.

several posters on the BBC website have offered the opinion that Musharraf is behind this. I personally do not hold this view - I think it is more likely to be Taleban.

FlllightAttendant · 27/12/2007 15:22

Oh I see...Hmm not good.

RosaLuxMundi · 27/12/2007 15:32

Tragic news. What will happen to Pakistan now? It is terrifying.

TheDuchessOfNorksBride · 27/12/2007 15:43

Sad news but not unexpected.

MascaraOHara · 27/12/2007 15:47

Oh my god, I only just heard about this. I know it's awful but you almost feel like she was on borrowed time don't you(?).. I wonder what will happen now.

Elasticwoman · 27/12/2007 15:49

Benazir Bhutto was a very brave woman - she carried on after several clear threats to her life and now she has paid the ultimate price. Let's hope she has a successor. I remember demonstations in hyde park when her father was condemned to death. He was still executed, and she later took over where he left off.

meglet · 27/12/2007 17:04

I assume that this doesn't bode well for Imran Khan either. I have no idea what he stands for politcally but he's not afraid of standing up for what he believes in. Wasn't he under house arrest a few weeks ago?

Sad Sad Sad

WideWebWitch · 27/12/2007 17:11

paulaplumpbottom · 27/12/2007 17:11

What an awfu3 wate. she was such a brave woman and I feel for the people of Pakistan who have lost someone who represented so much hope for their country.

lou33 · 27/12/2007 17:13

how awful

CremolaFirCone · 27/12/2007 18:15

Nightynight · 27/12/2007 19:02

Really sad news.
