Which year were you in Hassan abdal?

I liked that college and one of my nephew graduated from there just 4-5 years ago. I used to visit hassan abdal Grudwara.

Not really. He was certainly a senior but an undistinguished student.
Honestly, Petaro cadet college was not like the hassanabad one.

There were lots of softies there.

Re: # 53 i think his baloch bloodline refined in sindh and his cadet college background make him a really tough nut to crack.i am told that he was a real trouble maker in petaro

Re: # 9

add to this theory the statement by Sheikh Rasheed "Benazir will never become the Prime Minister", and she gets shot in Pindi.

Let me try and take a shot at it.
Mushy baba is toast so Zardari shows his balls but when it comes to the real army he is a gedar.

"In the video released by CNN and ARY at 2 AM this night, you clearly see BB's hair and Duppatta fluttering before she falls down."

I saw that I am surprised why don't we see some stop frames there? I have downloaded the vid and I will try and freeze frames to see it myself.

HP&PM
In the pictures posted by me on gallary, please note the Police Jeep on the extreme left and two men standing at a distance, next to it. The DSP is Shah, lying in a critical condition in CMH. The old man in red is dead. In the second and third picture, there are two men pouncing on the dandy assasin. One of them is the one in white shalwar kameez standing next to the police in the first picture.

In the video released by CNN and ARY at 2 AM this night, you clearly see BB's hair and Duppatta fluttering before she falls down.

As for Agha Amin's theory, USA had as many reasons to despise Bhutto as it had for beholding her. She did things that totally estranged USA, like Pakistan's missiles, nuclear testing sites and row with USA over UNECOL.I had the honor of reading one of her hand written security papers and WOW.

Purely on merit, she was a woman with balls of Tungsten Carbide.
