Former Pakistan PM Benazir Bhutto Assassinated

If you're in Pakistan today, be somewhere else.

RAWALPINDI, Pakistan (CNN) -- Pakistan former Prime Minister Benazir Bhutto has died after a suicide attack, according to media reports.

Geo TV quoted her husband saying the politician had died following a bullet wound in the neck. The suicide attack left at least 14 dead and 40 injured, Tariq Azim Khan, the country's former information minister, told CNN in a telephone interview.

The attacker is said to have detonated a bomb as he tried to enter the rally where thousands of people gathered to hear Bhutto speak, police said.

This is not good, and it's gonna get much worse before it gets better. The last thing America - and the world - needs is an unstable Pakistan. Fasten your seat belts, my friends. It's going to be a very bumpy ride.
