Enough is enough. Benazir Bhutto is assasinated!

What is happening to the world order? Another death blow to democracy has been struck. Despite all the differences in the subcontinent, we all are immensely shocked at what has happened to a person who has been by and large a liberal politician and has thus paid the price for it. On these moments we realise that we feel grieved not for a member of any particular community but that we feel grieved for the loss of humanity. The Frankenstein continues to terrorise humanity and we are but noble white-collared subservients to it. Pervez Musharraf is a hated man nowadays perchance even in Pakistan. He is defending a stance akin to that of George Bush in the US of A. Both seem to be hated for their anti-democratic policies.
Born on 21st June, 1953 to one of the elitest families of Pakistan, Benazir Bhutto has met an end that somewhat strikes 'deja vu' for the Indian public that had been tormented in the past by the killings in the reputed Gandhi clan.
It is not the concern for the chotic Pakistan. It is a concern of the security all across the world. As of now, Pakistan seems to be the worst sufferer. Who knows who will will follow suit?
Nonetheless, the mournful mind still cannot reconcile with the fact that she is no more with us.
