Benazir Bhutto saw her courting of the US as necessary to her ascent to power? The Americans have long cultivated Pakistan’s military as the best vehicle for subordinating Pakistan to its ends: first, Pakistan’s military became a US partner in the Cold War, and since 9-11 it has been drafted as a leading ally in the ‘global war against terror.’ The 1990s – the interim between the two wars – was a window of opportunity for Pakistan’s politicians.

Bhutto will be using at least two bullet-proof vehicles with 'radio jammer' technology similar to the one being used to protect President Pervez Musharraf [Images]. At least two bullet-proof or resistant vehicles will be used by Bhutto from Karachi's Jinnah terminal to her residence at Bilawal House, Pakistan People's Party sources said, adding they apparently have the ability to defuse explosives after detecting them.

At the hospital where Bhutto was taken, a large number of police officers began to cordon off the area as angry party workers smashed windows. Amid the crowd, dozens of people beat their chests, and chanted slogans against President Pervez Musharraf. Many protesters shouted "Musharraf Dog!"

Bhutto: During the days of fighting the Soviet occupation in Afghanistan [1980s], a military dictator in Pakistan [Zia] used religious parties to recruit fighters. He used money to set up religious schools whose real purpose was to indoctrinate young men into becoming robots. Since he was associated with the Muslim Brotherhood, he used those links to bring together members of the Muslim Brotherhood from different parts of the world. They were brainwashed into believing that after defeating the Soviet Union, they could take on the other superpower, namely America. They were never told that the success against the Soviets was because it was a proxy war with international backing. These indoctrinated elements were patronized in the military, security, civilian and political structure of Pakistan.
