Oh ... shit.

I mean, she was probably one of the most dubious politicians Pakistan ever had, but now she's going to be a martyr.

I thought she was one of the best they'd had.

And, of course, corrupt as hell, but that's par for the course. Corrupt-and-reasonably-sane is better than Americas-greatest-ally, at the moment.

When speaking in relative terms, yes, she was one of the best they had. However, to call her "ambitious" is like calling molasses slow. Well, now she'll be a saint, so maybe her ambitions are finally met.

A lot of people are saying this is going to cause a civil war. Yay for Eastern Stability.

The one provided by the government of Pakistan, because they explicitly forbade her to hire her own security from outside the country?

Musharraf had everything to gain from her death. A truly rotten thing about this is that we're probably still going to have to support him, because the alternatives are even worse. :(
