The Making of a Murder in Pakistan
With Benazir Bhutto's murder leaving Pakistan’s future hanging in the balance, the West must recognize that Pervez Musharraf is not the only leader who can resolve Pakistan’s myriad problems and manage the war on terror.

The assassination of Benazir Bhutto, the first Muslim woman to lead a Muslim country, is a serious blow to Pakistan’s prospects for democracy and, indeed, its viability as a state. As chaos and confusion set in, we should not lose sight of President Pervez Musharraf’s partial responsibility for this turn of events. At the very least, he cannot be absolved from his government’s failure to provide Bhutto with adequate security.
