Ya ali maded !

Zulfiqar Ali Bhutto was born on January 5, 1928. He was the only son of Sir Shah Nawaz Bhutto. Zulfiqar Ali Bhutto completed his early education from Bombay's Cathedral High School. In 1947, he joined the University of Southern California, and later the University of California at Berkeley in June 1949. After completing his degree with honors in Political Science at Berkeley in June 1950, he was admitted to Oxford.
Zulfiqar Ali Bhutto married Nusrat Isphahani on September 8, 1951. He was called to Bar at Lincoln's Inn in 1953, and the same year his first child, Benazir Bhutto, was born on June 21. On his return to Pakistan, Bhutto started practicing Law at Dingomal's.

In 1958, he joined President Iskander Mirza's Cabinet as Commerce Minister. He was the youngest Minister in Ayub Khans Cabinet. In 1963, he took over the post of Foreign Minister from Muhammad Ali Bogra.

His first major achievement was to conclude the Sino-Pakistan boundary agreement on March 2, 1963. In mid 1964, Bhutto helped convince Ayub of the wisdom of establishing closer economic and diplomatic links with Turkey and Iran. The trio later on formed the R. C. D. In June 1966, Bhutto left Ayub's Cabinet over differences concerning the Tashkent Agreement.

Zulfiqar Ali Bhutto launched Pakistan Peoples Party after leaving Ayub's Cabinet. In the general elections held in December 1970, P. P. P. won a large majority in West Pakistan but failed to reach an agreement with Sheikh Mujib-ur-Rahman, the majority winner from East Pakistan. Following the 1971 War and the separation of East Pakistan, Yahya Khan resigned and Bhutto took over as President and Chief Martial Law Administrator on December 20, 1971.
In early 1972, Bhutto nationalized ten categories of major industries, and withdrew Pakistan from the Commonwealth of Nations and S. E. A. T. O. when Britain and other western countries recognized the new state of Bangladesh. On March 1, he introduced land reforms, and on July 2, 1972, signed the Simla Agreement with India, which paved the way for the return of occupied lands and the release of Pakistani prisoners captured in East Pakistan in the 1971 war.

After the National Assembly passed the 1973 Constitution, Bhutto was sworn-in as the Prime Minister of the country.

On December 30, 1973, Bhutto laid the foundation of Pakistan's first steel mill at Pipri, near Karachi. On January 1, 1974, Bhutto nationalized all banks. On February 22, 1974, the second Islamic Summit was inaugurated in Lahore. Heads of States of most of the 38 Islamic countries attended the Summit.
Following a political crisis in the country, Bhutto was imprisoned by General Zia-ul-Haq, who imposed Martial Law on July 5, 1977.

On April 4, 1979, the former Prime Minister was hanged, after the Supreme Court upheld the death sentence passed by the Lahore High Court. The High Court had given him the death sentence on charges of murder of the father of a dissident P. P. P. politician.

Zulfiqar Ali Bhutto was buried in his ancestral village at Garhi Khuda Baksh, next to his father's grave.

How was the life of the shia people under his rule?
How was his daughter, Benazir? I heard many bad things about her.

Salamz Sis Sara !

We re` discussing the most charismatic political leader in pakistan`s history,i.e Z A Bhutto. he was infact an international figure with great political insight. he worked for islamic ummah`s alliance & many islamic head`s summit were held in pakistan in his tenure.

Zulfiqar ali bhutto was the one who actually opened doors for china in the western world. freindship ties built by bhutto re` still remembered by the chinese today & they re` ready to help pakistan in need of the hour.

Bhutto also worked on the international scene to build up NAM(non-aligned movement) at the time when cold war was on it`s highs btween former soviet union(USSR) & America.his political activity in this regard was so intense that even super powers got afraid that world`s power balance could be in doll-drums,if he was not stopped.

Had bhutto given the chance(he was killed by a military dictator), the position of islamic umaah would be a different one today for sure.

wassalam.

Salamz !

Bhutto`s wife 'Nusrat Isphahani(an iranian)' was shia for sure. bhutto himsef had a great love abt ahal-e-bait,but never described it in open.things described against benazir re` also a part of propaganda war mainly.

Btw. benazir bhutto is also married to a shia guy,named 'asif ali zardari'.
Benazir has a great fascination for ahal-e-bait & when she was the premier of pakistan,one could see the alam of ghazi abbas alamdar on her residence 'Bilawal House'(karachi-pakistan).

Shias enjoyed a great bit of freedom & authority in bhutto`s tenure. a significant no. of national assembly members & high level gov. officials/ministers of his party PPP(pakistan people`s party) used to be shias.there was no such thing of shia-sunni violence in bhutto`s tenure, such as we watch today in pkaistan.
Even the election symbols for bhutto`s party used to reflect shia influence on it,i.e symbols like 'ZULFIQAR(sword of ali)' & ARROW(symbolises imam hussain).

Bhutto taking oath as pakistan`s president.


Salamz !

How possibly could americans get happy with bhutto ?

Americans asked bhutto to freeze & roll-back pakistan`s atomic programme & this was what bhutto replied,

" we shall eat grass, but will never roll-back our atomic programme"

Henry Cassinger(former american foreign minister in 70`s) cleary said on record,

" we shall make bhutto a sign for dis-obeying forces".

Exactly that was the reason for wich bhutto was hanged. late general zia was merely a puppet of americans in hanging an elected premier,alas.

Those ppl who ve` got some knowlidge of history,know for sure abt the revolutionary changes Z A Bhutto brought to the society in pakistan & around the world.

Bhutto had all the features of a successful politician,i.e he was
a lawyer
studied political science
remained commerce minister
became foreign minister
then remained president of pakistan
he was premier of pakistan too.

So u may say that he was a history in himself.

Salam & ya ali maded !

Yes, bhutto nationalised institutions,but that was the need of the hour.i am not in favour of nationalising institutions either.the country had been broken into pieces(formation of bangladesh) & the ground reality was that private sector had become stronge far beyond the control of the gov,i.e 22 famous families of pakistan were getting richer & the gov & the masses were suffering from poverty.had bhotto not done that,then there were some dissidents ready to break pakistan into some more pieces.

U may call it a major surjery. just like u cut out a piece of meat from ur body,knowing the fact that it`s cancerous. it was the part of the body though.just like divorve is 'makrooh' in shariah,but if felt compulsioninate,it`s 'halal' too.

Actually i ve`got no stopping to pronounce the fact that we pakistanis dragged 'bengalis' to look for their seperate homeland by our worst possible behaviour.

It was Bhutto who started the decline of Pakistan as a nation. He gave liberty to the undue liberty to the public, liberty which was not needed. As a result, Pakistan has never been able to recover completely because of his bad policies. Before he came to power, Pakistan was rapidly progressing - he destroyed it all. And his daughter is even worse. She thinks Pakistan is her paternal heritage and she can eat it up as much as she wants. Basically, she blames Pakistan for the death of her father and in revenge she is willing to eat up the entire nation. What else did she do during her period as the ruler? And I agree with Orion, infact was going to say exactly the same thing. Bhutto openly declared that he drank! As good muslims, we are required to hide our sins, not telling them to others, let alone to the whole nation! Allah hides our sins (sitar-ul-ayoob) and he wants to see us hide our sins. Doing the opposite shows that you give little importance to that sin and you are not even ashamed of it!


Brother maisam !

Salamz & ya ali maded !

No politician happens to be faultless. this quality goes to the 14 masoomeen & Allah the almighty only.majority of muslim politicians drink, if u don`t know this fact, u ve` got my sympatheis. :D
. i am in no way favouring drinking habbits anyways.

secondly u r talking abt the tenure of 'ayub khan'. bhutto was commerce minister/foreign minister & the real soul behind ayub gov before he left him in 1966.ayub was nothing but a bloody dictator & a parasite living on bhutto intelect.

I am rather surprised by ur allegation that bhutto gave unnecessary freedom to the masses. infact bhutto gave the poor their right to raise their voice against injustice. he groomed & lead land reforms & tried to rationalize the gap between too rich & ppl living below poverty line.

Wealth/power/authority was circling in 22 families of pakistan,before bhutto broke this vicious circle by encouraging the 'poor' to fight for their rights. bhutto was justified in his dissidency against ayub,because ayub was destroying the excellent work done by bhutto in ayub`s tenure. what ayub`s gov took the credit was actually attained by Z A Bhutto.bhutto was the soul person who made some 'policy' for pakistan before musharruf. now musharruf should be given the credit of doing that.

About Benazir ??

Benazir has been victamised by the agencies in pakistan. even in her two tenures,agencies kept an stupid named' nawaz sharif ' encouraging to be in a state of revolt against her.election results were not fair even in 1988 & 1993 & ppp was denied a no of seats intensionally to award an incomplete mendate to benazir,so that benazir could be blamed for an unsuccesful gov later.

So why are you than claiming him to be a lover of Ahlul Bait (as). Brother, open your eyes and admit that people like Bhutto have nothing to do with Shiaism.

Imam Baqir (as) said: "... He who obeys Allah is a lover of us, and the one who disobeys Him then he is an enemy for us (AhIul-Bayt)..."

there is no doubt that bhutto had a stunning personality and great crisma (which made his a real leader for the masses) having said that, there should be little doubt in nyone's mind that He did Pakistan more bad then good, nyone who understands even bit of economics knows, how devastating his "nationalization" policy was, we still ahve to pay for it. The whole story about 22 families is a "media gimic" every developed economy takes the same path from agricutural to industrial to post-industrial era, family captilism is the natural route and is followed by corprate captalism.........

If you are againt captalism and pro-socialism that is another thing, but even Marx called for "nationalisation of all means of Productions" it seems pretty ironic for a country whcih is largly an agricutlure producting country to go on path of socialization WITHOUT nationalizing the agriculture sacter, with few land loards were in possession of huge lands (including bhutto) and thus had control over the working class (the farmers in this case)

So to sum it up Bhutoo got a great blend where we were neither captalist nor socialist, we were a "feudalist" society wehre the feudals had all the pover and privlage.......
