Benazir Bhutto stands up to Gen. Pervez Musharraf, then seems to accommodate him, never revealing her intent.

This visualization below allows you to see the impact that each user has on the current conversation. The top row contains the group of users who have had the most impact, the 2nd row the group of users who have had the 2nd most impact (et cetera). Users with similar impact are grouped together, and the average score of the group is shown to the left of the group. The author of the article is also shown on the left, in their corresponding group. Each user's score is based on the number of comments the user has made plus the number of votes their comments have received. The scores are calculated relative one another, so while their absolute value is not particularly important, their relative difference does indicate a larger difference in impact on the conversation.

Dear Richard, Hello hope all is well with you! I was just wondering if Mrs. Bhutto intends to stop the violence in Pakistan and corruption or is she have more selfish motives? I am an American married to a Pakistani American citizen and Lately i've been having conversations with different People here in the states in doctors offices to grocery stores, who happen to be Pakistani citizens and from what information i gathered they said their families in Pakistan suggested that they remain in the states. I am very uneasy about the situation in Pakistan concerning my inlaws, i've have not visited them yet and have been married for 12 years out of fear of violence against citizens abroad! My family in Pakistan are very eager to see our child who is now ten. Do you see any hope that Pakistan will become less violent against people in the future! Even though my husband says it's ok for us to travel to Pakistan i still don't know what to expect! Thank You! Melissa

Hello Richard, Please explain why some people in Pakistan are bombing the very things they are in the name of? I would hope that the reason Mrs. Bhutto is trying to take over is doing it out of love for Pakistan and to help the Pakistani people and not for her own motives! Whoever can stop the violence and corruption in Pakistan and have a heart for people in general and not have selfish motives to be in power i would support them! thank you!

To Whom It May Concern,

When will the violence end! Please, if Mrs. Bhutto has an ounce of humanitarian efforts on her side maybe everyone should no about it so the Pakistani People won't think Mrs. Bhutto does not have selfish motives and only cares about the people of Pakistan, something to think about!

Thank You!

sincerely,
Melissa Nabi
