What after Death of Benazir Bhutto?
The headlines of one of the popular newspaper of Punjab and Kashmir reads " Nazir ban gayin Benazir" (Nazir is now without any Nazir). Though more than 90% of the Indians have hated her for being a Pakistani and also for being a prime minister (well most of them admired her fair n lovely look though), but now we have a bigger devil to blame "Mian Musharraf".
This post is inspired by one conversation between several people in the TV room during dinner time. I am wondering that what are the gains for different people after her sad assassination? Have tried to come up with a list but mind it, it's not exhaustive.
Parvez saab - He will get a chance to showcase the terrorism in Pakistan and he will take no time to announce that it's a terror act and Pakistan is committed to weed the terror out of their country. This sad incident will increase their commitment towards the cause. However this incident also proves that Pakistan will not be able to fight on its own and they will need the cooperation of Mr. Bush and for that matter the dollar power. Just watch how Musharraf use this opportunity to increase the inflow of western aid coming.
Mr. 'The' Bush - The poor lady was forced to come back to Pakistan as she was promised an private audience with Musharraf saab on the negotiation table. Well, Bush ji will also repeat the same thing and probably will pledge more help to Pakistan. He needs Musharraf for his bigger plans like to dump their rusted fighter planes and infested wheat into Pakistan and he needs an Islamic partner to show that he is only against terror and not against Islam.
Nawaz Shariff - Though he might be fearful for his life, but this gives him a lucrative opportunity to unite both the parties and become the leader of the united opposition. And I think this is lucrative enough to take on some more assassination attempts in future.
Manmohan Singh - He will reiterate that how disturbing the situation has become and its in the interest of US to leave Pakistan. Well, indirectly this incident will give him another opportunity to sell the 1-2-3 deal to the fellow MPs. India needs more nuclear reactors and this will be possible only when they go ahead with the deal.
Well, these were the majority stakeholders and there are some minority ones too whose cries doesn't even matter.
People of Pakistan - Another reason to display their shock and disbelief over the current regime.
Hoodlums - will get their chance to loot as many shops as they can and ....
Bloggers all over the world will get their one 'extra' post.. May Benazir's soul rest in peace and may her dream for a democratic Pakistan come true... (the sooner the better)
