Musharraf Blames Benazir Bhutto for Assassination

by John Little on 5/01/2008

If Musharraf had half a brain he would have refrained from expressing anything but regret and determination to find those responsible for the attack. Musharraf is apparently lacking any brains whatsoever:

Pakistan President Pervez Musharraf conceded that a gunman may have shot Benazir Bhutto but said the opposition leader exposed herself to danger and bore responsibility for her death, CBS News said on Saturday.

Musharraf was also quoted as telling the CBS “60 Minutes” program to be broadcast on Sunday that his government did everything it could to provide security for Bhutto, who was killed last week in a gun and suicide-bomb attack after a political rally.

“For standing up outside the car, I think it was she to blame alone. Nobody else. Responsibility is hers,” Musharraf said in the interview taped on Saturday morning.

And that is damage control gone very very wrong.
