Reconciliation: Islam, Democracy, and the West by Benazir Bhutto
Reconciliation: Islam, Democracy, and the West

naryab, February 4, 2008

I have read this book thoroughly and found it of no significant value as far as research or scrutinisation of any state affair is concerned. I wonder how would one of the most busy scheduled lady spare such time for penning down her valuable comments?Just think once that Who was directly affected and threatened by her presence in Pakistan, and why would she be risk to Talibans in particular?
Surely she knew who would assassinate her,while having openly declared in US and Dubai that if in power she would hand over Dr Qadir, Pak's only hero to US, roll back nuclear assets, contain Islam's further propogation, behead all extremists (yet to define who they are) hence her foremost enemy was the Pak government itself. She had put the integrity of Pak at risk.
I am certain that this book is a belated effort of Unknown hands to thwart the blame of her untimely death.
I wonder why do we grace her with the word martyr (shaheed) which clearly explains that the death should have an honourable cause....If the cause was amassing and plundering state's wealth and corrupting the whole system, then USA should be congratulated for their new terms in thesaurus.
