Benazir Bhutto

News of Bhutto's assassination reached us today in cold and rainy Providence, Rhode Island. Along with any number of analysts, we can't say we were surprised, yet shock and dismay still register highly. For now, we turn to the quick-moving Tariq Ali, who brings us this report in the Guardian.

As Tariq remarks, Bhutto's behavior both in and out of power are cause for sustained criticism, but this remains a deeply troublesome turn of events.
