She's with Allah now.

It really seemed to be a matter of time.
She even said something to this affect.

Is it effect or affect? Effect is the noun
gunner so I guess... I dont know
Affect is the verb gunner... I dont know.

Affect...yes...

She even said something indicating
she would probably die.

Yeah, she's the female Pakastani Tupac.

Either that or she's just another corrupt third world ass hat who got what she had coming.


Until someone can produce her lyrics on par with......

"as long as I stay black, I gotta stay strapped & I never get to lay back.
'Cause I always got to worry 'bout the pay backs.
Some buck that I roughed up way back... comin' back after all these years.
Rat-a-tat-tat-tat-tat. That's just the way it is."

I'll go with the latter.

Very sad news. These fair democratic elections they're planning are obviously a long way off.

she had been suspected of corruption, i believe that was what caused her to be the 'former' prime minister to begin with.
the bombing didn't kill her, i just read that she was shot twice, in the neck and chest, and then the shooter detonated a bomb, killing himself and 20 others.
of course you have to take a look at musharaf, who will try to hold onto power at any cost--he is saying islamic extremists, but what else would he say??

an already volatile region will be that much more so after this. more are already dead due to violence after the assassination...

it's a shame tho that political differences can cost you your life. she should never have gone back, she had to have known this was a very real threat to her life to return to pakistan.
