Benazir Bhutto
My very spirit cringes at times like these when I realize how dead and isolationist are the Democrats and so-called “progressives” in this country.
There was a genuine kind of martyrdom met in Rawalpindi yesterday —but how is it anything more than some piece in the grand conspiracy of the Neocon Cabal That Rules All? Will this flawed, but essentially fearless, woman’s sacrifice be recognized and honored by women in the West? Is democracy so banal and mundane to us that its bravest proponents in the Muslim world can be brought down in blood and it is merely to shrug?
Democracy cannot win if its enemies are not first destroyed.
Musharraf needs to kill more bad guys. He needs to pile them to the sky.
