I believe that the reason why the government is hiding the cause of her death is because lets say if she was shot by a bullet or a shrapnel from the bomb, people would sympathize with her more. Instead the government is saying she died from a fracture skull caused by her hitting the sunroof (an accident that could've been prevented). This partially diverts people from suspecting government of not enough security provided to an accident which could've been prevented by Bhutto herself. But the fact is that she died, so it doesn't really matter how she died.

Secondly, the entire Bhutto family didn't have a thriving and a honest past. Starting with Zulfiqar Ali Bhutto (Benazir's father), faced considerable criticism and increasing unpopularity for targeting leader of the opposition Abdul Wali Khan and his opposition National Awami Party.

On March 23, 1973, the Federal Security Force, a paramilitary force under the alleged orders of Zulfiqar Ali Bhutto, attacked a public opposition rally at the Liaquat Bagh in the town of Rawalpindi and killed a dozen people; many more were wounded by their automatic gunfire.

Benazir's husband, Asif Zardari has about 15 different corruption charges against him. And not to mention, but Murtaza Bhutto, Benazir's younger brother was shot and killed, along with six supporters, in what was later determined to be, an ambush by police on 20 September 1996, under Benazir's government, when she was serving as a Prime minister and it is said that Asif Zardari arranged that assassination. In August 2004, Zardari finally admitted owning a £4.35m estate in Surrey, England, which the Pakistani authorities allege was bought with the proceeds of corruption.

Benazir Bhutto also had two different corruption charges against her. Regardless, how she was assassinated wasn't right, no one deserves that

George,

You bring up an excellent point: We of the West are trying to make Pakistan, Iraq and Afghanistan into Western democracies where tribal chiefs hold all the power. While the end goal may be an enviable target, it is a long ways away - and not going to be achieved with Western military might.
