Former Pakistan Prime Minister and opposition leader Benazir Bhutto was assassinated today. Shortly after speaking at a political rally in Ralwalpindi, she was shot in the chest and neck and the gunman then blew himself up, taking 20 more lives ... this poem is the result.

There are no words - only sadness. When will Man learn to speak without the use of weapons or bombs to get their point across? A language that I will never understand ...
The language of destruction and murder is one I cannot comprehend. She was a great woman, perhaps, she can accomplish much in death that was not possible during her life. This is a wonderful tribute to an incredible woman.
This is tragic she was standing up against opression much like many of the people in the Amercian Past like Martin Luther King Jr and President JFK, this is a said write and a sad fact

Ugly wants hatred spred. Peace will always pay a high price as well as freedom. Angels sing tonight. They rejoice that this beautiful woman is HOME. Pricelessness has born another saint for the free world. Her death will be a catalyst for Freedom.She did not die in vain. Watch!

It makes no sense whatsoever. What are these people trying to teach?? Violence/hatred is NOT the answer!! God be with her family and those who knew her best; she will be missed by the world. Tragic!
