Bhutto refresher

Quote from usman88:

there one thing in asia which is more important than money....that is POWER & AUTHORITY
Nothing feels better than 'owning' a country

in third world countries rules & laws are only for the poor. Those with money, power and 'connections' cant even be touched by law.

This is exactly correct.

In Eastern Europe and Asia...
The "political elite" are above the law...
And it is their "right" to control and rape the country.

Human life is cheap = zero value.

Benazir Bhutto and, say, Yulia Tymoshenko the new PM of Ukraine...
Are very, very similar...
Both mega-rich oligarphs...
USING "populism" in order to secure their wealth...
And to secure the position of their "clan".

It's a life long game...
And is the norm over there...
But completely not understandable to someone born and living in North America.

Quote from Hydroblunt:

Besides that, is it even a surprise she got killed? It's pretty obvious she caters to Western interests, hence the mourning for her by the US media.

Nobody should be surprised that Bhutto was killed. What happens next? Not really a "democracy" over there!
