Benazir Bhutto assassinated.

Benazir Bhutto assassinated: "While Bhutto appeared to have died from bullet wounds, it was not immediately clear if she was shot or if her wounds were caused by bomb shrapnel.

President Pervez Musharraf held an emergency meeting in the hours after the death, according to state media.

Mahmud Ali Durrani, Pakistan ambassador to the United States, said Musharraf will be 'announcing something' soon, likely to include a declaration of national mourning for Bhutto. He said that when he briefly spoke with Musharraf, the president 'condemned these attacks.'"

Not entirely unexpected, but horrible nonetheless.

Has anyone claimed responsibility yet? I know that Al Qaeda is the likely perpetrator, but I wouldn't be the least bit surprised if Musharraf had something to do with it.
