Bilawal assails govt for pushing nation into dark ages
2014-04-05
[DAWN] Reaffirming his determination to fight Taliban militancy in Pakistain, Patron-in-Chief of Pakistain Peoples Party (PPP) Bilawal Baby Bhutto Zardari
...Pak dynastic politician, son of Benazir Bhutto and grandon of Zulfikar Ali Bhutto. As far as is known, Bilawal has no particular talents other than being pretty and being able to memorize political slogans, but he had the good luck to be born into the right family and he hasn't been assassinated yet...
Friday assailed the PML-N government for pushing the nation back to the dark ages by pursuing peace talks with the Pak Taliban, DawnNews reported.

Speaking in Garhi Khuda Bakhsh to commemorate 35th death anniversary of his grandfather and former prime minister Zulfikar Ali Bhutto
...9th PM of Pakistain from 1973 to 1977, and 4th President of Pakistain from 1971 to 1973. He was the founder of the Pakistain Peoples Party (PPP). His eldest daughter, Benazir Bhutto, would also serve as hereditary PM. In a coup led by General Zia-ul-Haq, Bhutto was removed from office and was executed in 1979 for authorizing the murder of a political opponent...
, he said the mess created by the government by engaging the gunnies in direct talks will again be washed by the blood of deaders -- a reference to sacrifices rendered by ZAB and his mother Benazir Bhutto
... 11th Prime Minister of Pakistain in two non-consecutive terms from 1988 until 1990 and 1993 until 1996. She was the daughter of Zulfikar Ali Bhutto, founder of the Pakistain People's Party, who was murdered at the instigation of General Ayub Khan. She was murdered in her turn by person or persons unknown while campaigning in late 2007. Suspects include, to note just a few, Baitullah Mehsud, General Pervez Musharraf, the ISI, al-Qaeda in Pakistain, and her husband, Asif Ali Zardari, who shows remarkably little curiosity about who done her in...

Rejecting the dialogue process initiated by the government of Prime Minister Nawaz Sharif
... served two non-consecutive terms as prime minister, heads the Pakistain Moslem League (Nawaz). Noted for his spectacular corruption, the 1998 Pak nuclear test, border war with India, and for being tossed by General Musharraf...
with the Tehrik-e-Taliban Pakistain (TTP), Bilawal said the Death Eaters will never succeed in their objectives as long as Bhutto's grandson is alive.

"This head can be cut but it will never bow down before the oppressors," he added.

Young Bhutto's incendiary speech reflected the flare of his mother and grandfather as he declared that Taliban were beasts and zaliman (tyrants) and they will never be accepted in society.

Alleging the Punjab government of sheltering the Death Eaters and terrorists, he said the blind are leading those with eye-sight in the name of peace talks. How will peace prevail in a country whose biggest province was sheltering the bully boys, he questioned.

Bilawal urged the masses in Punjab to wake up.

Criticizing the privatisation policy, he said the government was planning to sell out national assets in the name of privatisation.

The PPP chairman urged the chief ministers of Balochistan
...the Pak province bordering Kandahar and Uruzgun provinces in Afghanistan and Sistan Baluchistan in Iran. Its native Baloch propulation is being displaced by Pashtuns and Punjabis and they aren't happy about it...
, Sindh and Khyber-Pakhtunkhwa
... formerly NWFP, still Terrorism Central...
to demand their share of assets from the centre.

He also condemned the government for not taking the nation into confidence over $1.5billion 'friendly aid.'

Speaking on the occasion, former president Asif Ali Zardari emphasised on the importance of inter-sect harmony in the country and urged the government of engaging all political forces on the matter.

He dedicated the evening to his son Bilawal amid popular chants and slogans.
