More quotes by Zulfikar Ali Bhutto
Every government, every country, has the right to exercise force when necessary.
Zulfikar Ali Bhutto
[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
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
Mujib [Rahman], as you've seen, is a congenital liar. He can't help telling lies - it's something stronger than he.
Zulfikar Ali Bhutto
I'm not trying to minimize things I'm trying to bring them back to reality.
Zulfikar Ali Bhutto
Yes, there are circumstances where a bloody suppression is justifiable and justified.

[Tikka Khan] went to East Pakistan with precise orders and came back by precise orders. He did what he was ordered to do, though he wasn't always in agreement, and I picked him because I know he'll follow my orders with the same discipline.
Zulfikar Ali Bhutto
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.
Zulfikar Ali Bhutto
I am guiding you to seek truth from the facts of the historical conditions of our society and to identify the problems. The correct solutions will come with the correct identification of the problems.
Zulfikar Ali Bhutto
Let's talk about the other story: the women raped and killed. I don't believe it. Certainly there was no lack of excesses, but General Tikka Khan says that in those months he often invited the population to report abuses to him directly.
Zulfikar Ali Bhutto
[Yahya Khan] thought of nothing but acquiring beautiful cars, building beautiful homes, making friends with bankers, and sending money abroad.
Zulfikar Ali Bhutto
We(Pakistan) will eat grass, even go hungry, but we will get one of our own (Atom bomb).... We have no other choice!
Zulfikar Ali Bhutto
Lets build a monument for the veto. Lets build a monument for impotence and incapacity.
Zulfikar Ali Bhutto
To conclude, the tragedy of March 25 [1969] caught me by surprise. Yahya Khan fooled even me.
Zulfikar Ali Bhutto
I tried to explain that there was a great difference between me and Mujib [Rahiman]: he was a secessionist and I wasn't.
Zulfikar Ali Bhutto
For instance, in the name of unity. You can't build without destroying.
Zulfikar Ali Bhutto
Mrs. [Indira] Gandhi can rightly boast of having won a war, but if she won it, she should first of all thank Yahya Khan and his gang of illiterate psychopaths.
Zulfikar Ali Bhutto
Tikka Khan was a soldier doing a soldier's job.
Zulfikar Ali Bhutto
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
Even to get Yahya Khan to reason was an impossible task - it only made you lose your temper.
