Instability In Pakistan- Merged Thread

[armyvern]

Here's another site hosting the video ... this one provides further commentary (the vid also seems to be clearer) and also shows footage of the vehicle that was taken the evening of the bombing -- inside and out.

Oh ... part of that footage taken of the vehicles's interior includes a very clear shot of the sunroof handle -- totally devoid of the blood which the Interior Ministry later claimed was upon it and which proved their theory that she dies as a result of impact on it.

In this clearer footage ... one can also see that she has already completely fallen within the vehicle ... before the bomb detonates.

It's the same video (with vehicle footage after the event), but it seems to have been enhanced to me to make it clearer.

Police 'prevented Bhutto autopsy'
ISLAMABAD, Pakistan (CNN) -- Rawalpindi's police chief stopped doctors at the hospital where Benazir Bhutto died from conducting an autopsy, [emphasis added] according to a lawyer on the hospital's board.

It was a violation of Pakistani criminal law and prevented a medical conclusion about what killed the former prime minister, said Athar Minallah, a lawyer who serves on the board that manages Rawalpindi General Hospital.

The revelation came on Monday after dramatic new videotape of Bhutto's assassination emerged, showing her slumping just after gunshots rang out.

The tape provided the clearest view yet of the attack and appeared to show that Bhutto was shot. That would contradict the Pakistan government's account.

For those lacking the cultural knowledge of Australian terms, like myself, what is a 'sticky beek'?

ya, slang is a way of life, took me a year to master it...

Hey ahd a look at those videos, and ya, one can see her hair rise, etc.

The Pakistani government has created a real conspiracy. Shame on them. To think they have the nukes, well thats scary.

Too bad they did not come clean and be honest (lies and corruption are rife there as it is, so no suprise anyways).

Cheers,

Wes

Why ?

Answer simple

Because his name is Bhutto!

The Bhuto's are the Kennedy's of Pakistan.

Beside his Dad - Bhutto's Machiavellian husband -is or will be now
power behind "the throne "

The question should be "how long before Pakistan military steps in"!!

Exactly, that gets my vote. Mushraff is rapidly becoming toast but not to worry there are lots of Generals eager to step into his place.
I found this article by Gwynne Dyer very useful in looking at where things could go.

Pakistan elections postponed, sources say

ISLAMABAD (CNN) -- The Election Commission of Pakistan will delay parliamentary elections for at least a month, sources in the commission told CNN Tuesday.

The delay comes amid unrest following the assassination of former Prime Minister Benazir Bhutto.

The government plans to make a formal announcement Wednesday, the sources in the commission said Tuesday. The elections, originally scheduled for January 8, will take place some time in February, they said.

Bhutto's party and another major opposition party had urged the government not to delay the elections.

But various provincial government representatives had suggested that the government hold elections after the Muslim holy month of Muharram, Commission Secretary General Kanwar Dilshad said at a press conference Tuesday. The holiday, which follows a lunar calendar, will begin around January 9 and end about February 6.

Before news broke of the delay, Bhutto's husband, Asif Ali Zardari, told CNN's Wolf Blitzer that he is confident the Pakistan People's Party -- which he has taken control of since Bhutto's death -- will be victorious in the parliamentary vote. His party urged that the government go ahead with elections on January 8.

Pakistan asks Scotland Yard to help probe Bhutto's death

Pakistan has asked Britain's Scotland Yard to help investigate the killing of Benazir Bhutto, President Pervez Musharraf said Wednesday, hours after officials announced a six-week election delay because of turmoil caused by her death.

The parliamentary election originally planned for next Tuesday will be postponed to Feb. 18.

Opposition parties condemned the delay, but said they would still participate in the vote.

"We have decided to take part in the election," said Asif Ali Zardari, Bhutto's husband and now the leader of Bhutto's Pakistan Peoples Party. "People should be peaceful and express their anger through their ballots."

In a televised public address, Musharraf said British Prime Minister Gordon Brown accepted his request to send a team of investigators to Pakistan immediately to assist local officers.

I saw that. I was talking about a post made a few days back where someone suggested the FBI or New Scotland Yard do the investigation. It might not have even been this thread, but I know it was mentioned well before this annoucment by the Pakistani Government.
