TODAY'S DEMOCRACY NOW!:
* Former Pakistani Prime Minister Benazir Bhutto Assassinated *
Former Pakistani Prime Minister Benazir Bhutto has been assassinated just
two months after returning to Pakistan from exile. She died after an
apparent suicide attack in the city of Rawalpindi. Bhutto had just addressed
an election rally when gunfire and an explosion occurred. We go to Pakistan
and simulcast part of the breaking news coverage on Dawn News and speak with
Sadaf Aziz, professor of law and policy at Lahore University of Management
Sciences, and Zia Mian, a physicist with the Program on Science and Global
Security at the Woodrow Wilson School of Public and International Affairs at
Princeton University.
