Dunno what long-term impact anybody's death has? The only people likely to suffer are her kids and family. I didn't like Benazir, but i certainly felt sad at the way she had to go! If nothing else, the lady had tremendous guts which many of the humans populating this planet don't have. She was felled by cowards and the assassin evaded capture too, by choosing the easy way out, suicide! Classic! I certainly don't comprehend what's the primary issue here, male-domination, religion or politics. She'd have certainly won if fair elections were held. Maybe that's the issue!

I disagree with the author's views. Benazir represented the Sindhi identity in Pakistan and her killing might lead to further alienation of the Sindhi community from the Pakistan main stream politics. This might be the beginning of another separatist demand in the making, like the creation of Bangladesh. Benazir's death might well be the first step towards the creation of sindhisthan.
