In Memory of Benazir Bhutto


A dark day for agents of change around the world. May former Prime Minister Bhutto's legacy be long remembered, and may peace and not violence follow in the wake of her tragic death. Her many supporters killed not only today, but also since her return to her country, should also be remembered. There is no political conversation when murder silences the voices of protest. Terrorists, regimes and politicians willing to kill their opposition, and their own citizens and countrymen? Shocking, but not surprising. The scariest thread of this news story is how unsurprising Bhutto's assassination seems to be. Thank you for your courage, Prime Minister Bhutto. May this loss to the world community not be in vain.

May her memory be for a blessing.

We are all wounded with her passing.
