How to make a Martyr


After Bhutto's assassination Al-qaeda was mentioned often. In the rush to prove his dedication to the prospect of peace former general Musharraf posthumously reprimanded twice elected prime minister Bhutto for not knowing how side to step suicide bombers as well he could, a skill he perfected to the point of Zen like perfection. But don't blame Musharraf. It's obviously to much to expect from the unquestioned leader of a quasi dictatorial regime to control the people within his country. But now it's election time and the General's party might lose to the power of the martyr. America is currently holding a contest of leadership that will involve massive amounts of soft and hard money being shifted from network to network to influence public opinion. But there's a good chance no one will be blown up in the eleventh hour. But would it help? It might take an amazing Benazir Bhutto like force to sort out the crap storm. What each party needs is martyr.

Being dead is the best way to end an argument for two reason:
1 you don't have to argue anymore.
2 whoever keeps the argument going looks like a rat bastard to pretty much everyone.

How to be a martyr: How to lose you life and help your party.

1 HAVE BALLS

Bhutto's government voiced its concern for women's social and health issues and discrimination against women within a culture that sees women as primarily baby make machines, secondly as dependents. Bhutto announced plans to establish women's police stations, courts, and women's development banks. She promised to repeal controversial laws such as the Hudood laws which consequently made victims of rape guilty under the laws of the Quran based crime of Zina (extramarital sex) resulting in the victims eventual incarceration (but the party did not fulfill these promises during her tenures as Prime Minister, due to immense pressure from the opposition).
When was the last time you heard about any of the democratic candidates actually promising repeal an arbitrary faith based laws? Or when was the last time any of them tried to actually overhaul the laborious often redundant bureaucracy that has had made governing in America governing equatable to masturbating with salt petter?

2 HAVE SHAKESPEARIAN FAMILY ISSUES

Benazir Bhutto's father, former Prime Minister Zulfikar Ali Bhutto, was removed from office following a military coup in 1977 led by the then military chief General Muhammad Zia-ul-Haq. Later General Zia charged Mr. Bhutto with conspiring to murder the father of dissident politician Ahmed Raza Kasuri. Zulfikar Ali Bhutto was sentenced to death by the martial law court. Zulfikar Ali Bhutto was hanged on April 4, 1979. Benazir Bhutto and her mother were held in a "police camp" until the end of May, after the execution. On July 18, 1985, 27 year old Shahnawaz Bhutto, brother of Benazir Bhutto was found dead in his French Rivera apartment. He died under mysterious circumstances, and the Bhutto family firmly believes he was poisoned. No one was brought to trial for murder, but Shahnawaz's wife Rehana was considered a suspect by the French authorities.

Now here the Republicans can pull a head in the Race to be Martyred. You have to be intriguing to be martyr and a murky family past filled with death, deception, and damning political intrigues.
They'll have a hard time forgetting you if you're Rudy Giuliani (9-ll) with three wives (9-11) one of which was your (9-11) second cousin, or if your like Mitt Romney who hired a man who impersonated a police officer, or hired illegal immigrants, or dodge the draft because you were a Mormon, or kept all five of your sons from performing military even though you supported the war. But this is a bad spot for John McCain. All he has is a drug addicted wife and history of infidelity, which is republican for “things we don't talk about at the dinner table”

The democrats have Hillary to lean on here but all her and husbands peccadilloes have been so warn down and used up by FOX “News” that people are tired of hearing about them. Obama gets no points here. He had better plan to kill his father or strangle a retarded midget prostitute or he's out of the running.



3 Put the people first

Unlike U.S. political parties Pakistan's governing bodies don't give a crap about P.R. They continuosly make the mistake of telling the public what they actually think. What propped Bhutto up over the junta hungry, coup loving parties that had traditionally dominated Pakistani politics is that what she believed in was actually quite helpful. She inherited the PPP, a semi-socialist quasi-free market entity with many idealistic and surprisingly killable leaders. Their ability to attract bullets and bombs is do in large part to the view of populace as either civic dependents or prospective victims. Case in point the systematic dismantling Pakistan's legal apparatus in 2007 by General Musharraf police force. When the lawyers peacefully protested Musharraf used a political move commonly referred to as the “counter impeachment” or the “Cheney reach around” when he arbitrarily arrested the lawyers. Prior to her assassination, Benazir Bhutto had been suggesting that maybe the best way to run a government was to not kill the people who were supposed to draft laws.

However, becoming a martyr you going to come up against FOX news, and they hate anyone who even tries to be beneficent because the only martyr's they support are Richard Nixon and JESUS!
