The same thing that we did before, keep pushing Pakistan to adopt real democracy. I'm sure that is what Benazir Bhutto would have wanted. When she was Prime Minister, she may not have done a perfect job, but new democracies are always chaotic and poorly run. She often spoke about democracy, it is what she strove for, and encouraged others toward.
She opposed extremism and advocated a generous, tolerant, mostly secular government. She was an inspiration to us all, an awesomely brave person who walked into the lion's den for her people.
Let us honor her by continuing her work.
Tyrants and assassins always misjudge democracies, thinking that killing the leader will destroy the government. That's their political system, not ours. In democracies, we are the government, and when one of us falls, another steps up, stronger and more determined.
To the Lioness of Pakistan
Pro Patria
