As apolitical as it gets...

Former Pakistani Prime Minister and current opposition leader Benazir Bhutto
was assassinated on Thursday in Rawalpindi. It is disheartening to see such apolitical actions in a situation that is in desperate need of politics. Somewhere today, Bernard Crick weeps... As do all of us who hold out hope for conciliation, compromise and relatively peaceful transitions of power. I hope that this isn't the spark that sets off an already combustible situation.
