Every government, every country, has the right to exercise force when necessary.

Image
Mujib [Rahman], as you've seen, is a congenital liar. He can't help telling lies - it's something stronger than he.

Image
Yahya Khan wasn't interested in the government of the country, he was interested in power for its own sake and nothing else.
Zulfikar Ali Bhutto
Image
[Yahya Khan] thought of nothing but acquiring beautiful cars, building beautiful homes, making friends with bankers, and sending money abroad.
Zulfikar Ali Bhutto
Image
The fact is that when you talk about Mujib [Rahiman], everything seems so incredible. I don't understand how the world can take him seriously.
Zulfikar Ali Bhutto
Image
There's only one man really responsible for those events - Yahya Khan. Both he and his advisers were so drunk with power and corruption they'd even forgotten the honor of the army.
Zulfikar Ali Bhutto
Image
I've known him since 1954 and I've never taken Mujib Rahiman seriously - I understood from the very first moment that there was no depth to him, no preparation, that he was an agitator breathing a lot of fire and with an absolute lack of ideas.

What can you say of a leader who starts drinking as soon as he wakes up and doesn't stop until he goes to bed? You've no idea how painful it was to deal with Yahya Khan. He was really Jack the Ripper.

Image
I can't destroy the whole army, and anyway [Tikka Khan] bad reputation for the events in Dacca is exaggerated.
Zulfikar Ali Bhutto
Image
Tikka Khan won't try to stick his nose in politics.
Zulfikar Ali Bhutto
Image
I'm not trying to minimize things I'm trying to bring them back to reality.
Zulfikar Ali Bhutto
Image
For instance, in the name of unity. You can't build without destroying.
Zulfikar Ali Bhutto
Image
Even to get Yahya Khan to reason was an impossible task - it only made you lose your temper.
Zulfikar Ali Bhutto
Image
A regime which puts in a bunker the highest law in the land does not have the moral authority to say that nobody is above the law.
Zulfikar Ali Bhutto
Image
I don't say it in the Indian fashion that is hypocritically. I say it sincerely because, instead of hatred, I feel great compassion for Mujib Rahiman.
Zulfikar Ali Bhutto
Image
Tear gas, rubber bullets, and I would have arrested all the leaders. Oh, only a disgusting drunkard like ex-President Yahya Khan could have sullied himself with an operation carried out so badly and bloodily.

Image
[Tikka Khan] made his appeal with loudspeakers, and still he came to know of only four cases. Shall we multiply by ten and make it forty? We're still far from the senseless figures spread around by Mujib [Rahman] and Indra Gandhi.

Image
[Yahya Khan ] I have a big problem on my hands with him. I've set up a war commission to study the responsibilities inherent in the recent conflict.
Zulfikar Ali Bhutto
Image
I tried to explain that there was a great difference between me and Mujib [Rahiman]: he was a secessionist and I wasn't.

[Mujib Rahman] is mad, mad! And they're all mad, the press included, who repeat after him, Three million dead, three million dead! The Indians had let out the figure of one million. He came along and doubled it. Then tripled it. It's a characteristic of the man - he'd done the same for the hurricane.
