CNN is reporting today that former Pakistani Prime Minister Benazir Bhutto was about to warn American lawmakers of a plot to rig the parliamentary elections in Pakistan.
The assassination occurred just a few hours before Ms. Bhutto was to have met with Rep. Patrick Kennedy and Sen. Arlen Specter.
That would certainly give the government plenty of motive to get Ms. Bhutto out of the picture.
In the Washington Post, another former Pakistani prime minister, Muhammad Nawaz Sharif, writes about "the future Pakistan deserves."
And he says that future should not include Pervez Musharraf.
"The country is paying a very heavy price for the many unpardonable actions of one man," Sharif writes. "The world must realize that Musharraf's policies have neither limited nor curbed terrorism. In fact, terrorism is stronger than ever, with far more sinister aspects."
