Thread:Comments:UN report says death of Benazir Bhutto preventable; fault of government/Sadly/reply (2)

What an unconscionably absurd thing to say. She was wildly popular at the time of her assasination, which if you studied the report, would have been prevented by following the simplest of security procedures. Can you imagine if Barack Obama or (George W. Bush for that matter) had no security detail, no secret service or intelligence network to protect them? Do you think the U.S. government would allow such a egregious breech of their basic security, or that they would emerge from such situations unscathed? I suspect not. However, That was precisely what the Pakistani Government did (deliberately apparently), even though they had the full capability to protect Ms. Bhutto. In essence her death was a wholly preventable tragedy engineered by the deliberate neglect of the Musharraf Regime. If they had followed standard procedures, there is no doubt that Ms. Bhutto would be President of Pakistan today.
