pardon my lack of knowledge in the pakistani political landscape (i'm only 18) but i gathered as much, from the time i got interested in current affairs circa 2000, that ms benazir bhutto was one strong lady - albeit any ministerial and administrative blunders she committed. what i remember most about her is not ms bhutto the politician but ms bhutto the lady. she was a figure of female empowerment, to me, who crossed all borders and conventions, was strong and feared nothing that gets in her way (even if it meant threats to her own life which she unfortunately was unable to get past this time round). I see her as a woman of courage and may her soul rest in peace.
