Fresh food for thought

Dear Imtiaz,

Thank you for your email.

I have a unique ability to sense things much before others can do it.
I am convinced that the whole episode is the doing of some Jehadi
organization. Anyway, it is a big loss and now we are here to deal
with the fallout.

Some even thought that Zardari never refused the Autopsy but the
Government?s version was alter on  confirmed by Zardari himself. You
must all understand that I am dealing with the medical profession for
last over twenty years. It is just not possible for any body to tamper
with the Postmortem report whether it is operative or non operative.
You should all understand that the dead body peak and peak very
accurately. If exhumation of Benazir? body I done tomorrow, I can
guarantee you that the facts will turnout to be exactly what the
Government has said. Details cannot be changed even if the exhumation
is done after one month. Anybody who thinks otherwise seems not to
have much knowledge on such matters or we are all being swayed by the
sympathy factor.

A friend of mine came up with another theory and I started scratching
my head when I thought about it. He believes that Mr. Zardari himself
is the mastermind behind it. He cites the killing of Murtaza Bhutto
when the deceased and Zardari were daggers drawn with each other. Now
as a result of Zardari?s seven years constant stay in the prison, we
are told that the husband and wife were not having good relationship
possibly he was suspecting her on many issues. My friend also cites
that Mr. Zardari was quite popular in the prison and he made friends
with a number of hardened criminals. I was stunned to hear it from Mr.
Zardari?s own mouth during December 30th press conference that all
those deputed for Benazir protection were in fact his friends from the
prison days. Knowing how sentimental we all are anybody will do such
an act for Mr. Zardari.

Who has benefited the most? My friend feels that this was a well
planned and well executed murder. He does not believe that there was
any will left by Mrs. Bhutto however if there was then it further
proves that Mr. Zardari was putting all the evidences together for
takeover of the party (which he now has) and his eventual rise to the
office of the president.

The problem is that we are now stuck with the sympathy factor and I
hope that this fades away quicker than usual. But just imagine if the
PPP gets a two third majority and decides to elect Mr. Zardari as the
President of this country, what will happen then? He used to be Mr.
Ten Percent during the first term and Mr. Cent Percent during the
second. What he turnout to be now is any body?s guess.

I hope you don?t believe that wisdom thrives only with the Bhutto
family. I feel that Ameen Fahim, Sham Mehmood Qureshi etc. are people
with great wisdom.
