Why is Osama Bin Laden safe in Pakistan while Benazir Bhutto was not?

Osama Bin Laden the terrorist is safe in Pakistan.

Benazir Bhutto the democrat was not.

Osama Bin Laden is alive and free in Pakistan.

Daniel Pearl is not.

Neither Iran nor Iraq have nuclear weapons.

But Pakistan does.

Every time you ask yourself why US political leaders will not stand up to the Bush-Cheney regime, why impeachment is off the table, why the betrayal of US secret agent Valerie Plame's covert identity goes unavenged, why those who looked the other way while 9/11 went down, then lied us into war with Iraq (and attempted to lie us into war with Iran) continue to occupy positions of power and privilege, why violations of FISA, FOIA, the Geneva Accords, the Bill of Rights, etc., have gone on unchecked, why no one is under criminal investigation for obstruction of justice in the firing of the US attorneys or the theft of elections in 2000, 2002 and 2004; remember the beautiful face, passionate heart and eloquent tongue of Benazir Bhutto, remember too Yitzhak Rabin, and Jack and Bobby Kennedy, and Dr. Martin Luther King, Jr., and Omar Torrijos, and Anwar Sadat, and the answer will come to you.

They do not stand up because they are afraid.

She was not afraid.

Agree or disagree?

Update:

If OBL is dead they still choose to make it appear as though he is still alive and well and in Pakistan. Why do you think they choose to display blatent disregard and unwillingness to pursue him?

Update 2:

Is doesn't change the fact that our representatives refuse to stand up and do something about this total BS.

    I wish I knew the answer but what ever I say, people will just look at me like a nut or a conspiracy theorist.

    The world is going down the tubes and we the people are letting it happen.

    According to an interview in November of this year between David Frost and Benazir Bhutto (attached), Osama bin Laden has already been murdered (per Ms. Bhutto). The Bushes just keep him around to keep us on our toes.

    some of you responders here oughta check in the news a little bit- osama just spewed (yesterday) a 54 minute tape which threatened "blood for blood"

    I cannot prove its real or a prop tool - BUT

    Bhutto was trying for civilized change and got nailed by SOMEbody- there is a massive argument just WHO that was- Musharraf govt boys refuse any investigation from outside-

    sounds like the neocons offering to do their own investigating of themselves doesn't it?

    "Well, we looked into and found nothing"

    "Nothing over here. Nothing over there." "eh eh eh!"

    not so funny when Pakistan has real American size nukes in their arsenal - it only takes one real hot-head who's got the power to let fly - especially when said hot-head is backed into a corner - that shouldn't take long at this stage

    the point about Osama is only a sub-point - i think the real question here is;

    Why should Bhutto been in harms way?

    She WAS the opposition - who in hell would want to kill her - you'd think ol' right-wing Mushy would be a target of the rebellious opposition wouldn't one?

    so leaves back at the 'under-question" who is REALLY behind it.

    Oh please - things like this are in NO WAY "accidents"

    you can bet the people behind it know EXACTLY what they are doing.

    ***Happy New Year! =)***

    I totally agree with you, i like Edge Caliber comment about world is going down, and we let it happen? I am really having a very emotional times these days, coz of all the s--t it's going on all over, from countries in Eastern Hemisphere to even this YA forum, so much s--t, just s--t pure s--t? My apology for getting out of line, but it's getting out of hand? I am pro peace and anti violence, how ever if this trend continues, i would fight and make it change or Die trying it? To die with honor is much better than siting back and just taking this BS.

    My Best Regards to you.

    disagree, disagree..when, where ..

    When was the last time anyone saw OBL?

    Where is he and all this freedom you talk about?

    You have some facts, to bad you cannot put them together rationally.

    How old was Bush/Cheney when MLK, the Kennedy's, and your others were assassinated? How do you feel they are all connected and placed at the feet of our Pres and VP?

    He's hiding in a cave and probably has the support of high ranking people over there. She was in the general public, campaigning for office.

    Osama Bin Laden doesn't emerge from under his rock very often.

    Wow, do you sound just a little bit bitter, just wait till voters slap Hillary silly.
