@Zagham H. Chaudry:
First of all, thank you for taking sometime out and comment. I am glad that you made this to the point observation. Here, I would like to mention that I happened make the said in the light of the book by Wolpert. It has nothing to do with my personal opinion about Zulfiqar Ali Bhutto. Moreover, I would like to agree with you when you say that no human is perfect and same is true for him too. I hope, I sound clearer now.

I am also reading the same book. You concluded that Bhutto was a stubborn man. However, whether he was a stubborn man or not I do not know but we must look beyond that because no man is perfect. We must look at how he changed Pakistan and what he did for Pakistan and how he built and improved Pakistan. For example, he built the atomic bomb for Pakistan. So please don’t come to negative conclusions without forgetting that Bhutto was human and wasn’t perfect. Thank You.

He was a man of great qualities., but “excess” of anything is bad. The excess of “arrogance” undid him. He was a great asset – but he antagonised very powerful elements in his country. The Capitalists – The Army – and the Right-wing Maulvis. Thru his behavior., he literally welded the trioka of his opposition that led to his downfall. He was a man with a vision., but arrogance and bad-language brought his downfall. (It was a double-edged sword. it worked both ways. He was vindictive and impulsive.) A great case for psycho-analysts to analyse.

[...] Zulfi Bhutto of Pakistan Posted on July 20, 2008 by Dr Farrukh Malik Recently, I happened to read a very fine biography of Former Premier of Pakistan Zulfiqar Ali Bhutto by Stanley Wolpert named, ‘Zulfi Bhutto of Pakistan: His life and times’. Here, it is worthy of mention that Zulfiqar Ali Bhutto was the founder of Pakistan People Party and is considered no less than a legend in the political history Pakistan. He was the one who happened to influence not only the history of Pakistan but world as well in many different ways. Be it the Atomic program of Pakistan or Pan-Islamic dream, one can find Zulfi Bhutto behind it. “No individual in the history of Pakistan–indeed, few people in modern history–have achieved greater popular power or suffered so ignominious a death as Zulfikar Ali Bhutto. Bhutto’s political rise and fall were so meteoric that his name became a legend in the land he once ruled.” writes Stanley Wolpert. [read more] [...]
