Horrid, on a human level.

On a geopolitical level, arguably one the very few assassinations that could lead to a nuclear war.



Yup. sh**t, if the pakis get behind the terrorists and nuke us, I think atomic genocide may become our only solution to the little spat we are in. Please tell me I am wrong. God Please! Holy sh**t! Can't believe I am saying this! Someone call me down.

RIP. Definite Freedom Fighter and Pakistan's last real hope.

A tragic day for the people of Pakistan- and the world.

FF indeed. Perhaps we put too much hope into her. We shall see.

I just saw this thread.

I just can't believe the cowardice of the people behind this killing. 

I really had a lot of hope for Pakistan with Bhutto as such a freedom fighter.  I can't deny that I expected this to happen, but it is shocking nonetheless, and it leaves one with a certain feeling of despair.

As tragic as this is, I hope this moves the majority of Pakistanis that believe in democracy and freedom to be even more determined to attain those things and that those responsible for this extremist behavior are sought out and tried in a court of law.  I think Bhutto would be extremely proud if this can happen.

I would like to believe that.

A horrible loss. Nuclear combat is unlikely but horribly more likely than this time yesterday. Personally should the worst happen and if Al-Qaeda get their finger on the button, we cannot leave them time to breathe. We have to preempt.

So, the chances jumped from 5% to 25%?
How would we do that?
