Assisination of Benazir
Posted by hatim
I never adorerd Benazir, neither did I ever like her political party. But her assasination has made me quite upset today. I am sure there are many people in the world who are upset by it and probably a few of them were her rivals as well. It is just not right for a person to be killed like that. First off she was a mother of three, then she was a leader of a party which represents a smaller province. Her father was also hanged in the same city not far from where her assasination took place. But It makes me think why am I not upset even to half of what I am now when I hear about all those people dying in bomb blasts. I think the reasons are simple, I knew Benazir more than just an anonymous person. I had seen her pictures and knew about her history (where she got educated etc). I knew about her (dysfunctional?) family. Then I saw a video of how she died. It is still unknown how she died exactly, but the very fact that she is waving and smiling to a cheering crowd of supporters and the next moment is utter chaos body parts flying every where.No one deserves to die like this, but the truth is people die like this on daily basis. I wonder when would this killing stop and we as a species would decide to be more like fedration in StarTrek.
