What a delight!!!
12:40 onwards...still divided as to what light to see benazir in
Was she earnest in bringing about a change or being so complacent on mr.10% makes her equally guilty (and not a well intentioned person merely obstructed by the system and men around her)

Hmm...6 minutes in, and all I can hear is what gigantic role Mr. Tariq Ali played in the historic return of Benazir to Pakistan 🙂

Worst of all sycophant now I know how he lived well in UK, it was all Bhotto's loot from the impoverished masses of Pakistan. Never said anything about Bhutto's secret police nor any mention of Bhuttos murder of Nawab Kasuri. Full of praises of Saddam Hussain but not one word about 1.5 million who died in Iran/Iraq fighting his war. I am sure he never saw film clips of Iraqi kicking and spitting on Saddam's fallen statue. I find it difficult to understand why brainless twits in UK find anything interesting in what this twit has to offer. But lets not forget he is more Jehadi than a leftist.
