Sensless Violence

Pakistan's Opposition Leader Benazir Bhutto has been assassinated after she spoke at a political rally in Rawalpindi.
She was shot and subsequently a bomb exploded wounding many of those attending the rally.

What a tragedy.

BBC report and another BBC report.

Not to mention the 180 degree shift in Pakistani politics now, especially seeing as the Parliamentary elections are/were to be held on the 8th of January.

18:37 - Edited to Add: a quick time line of Benazir Bhutto's life.
