"Hospitals Full of Victims and Solidarity With Bhutto"
"They believed that the government was to blame for the attacks, and few blamed Al-Qaeda or other Islamist militant groups.
Abdur Rauf, 23, a student leader from Ms. Bhutto’s Pakistan Peoples Party who had shrapnel injuries to his legs:
“Why were the street lights turned off at that time? It indicates a conspiracy of the government.”
He added that the deputy leader of the party, Makhdoom Amin Fahim, had been calling members of the government to get more street lights turned on, but that it did not happen.
He also complained that even though Ms. Bhutto had warned that suicide bombers were planning an attack on her, the government had provided only six or seven police cars to flank her bus. She should have been given more than the level of security that is given to the president, Gen. Pervez Musharraf he said.
Muhammad Bashir Ahmed, 48, a painter whose face and hair were burned in the second, larger explosion, said those responsible could not be Muslim.
Mr. Ahmed, asked who he thought was behind the attack:
“It was someone very evil. If I had known who did it, would I have left them alone?"
Another of the janisars, who gave his name as Sherbaz, 27... said he doubted the picture of a dead man released by the government was really the suicide bomber:
“They are trying to fool the people.”
[They FAILED!!!!]
