More quotes by Zulfikar Ali Bhutto
To build a country, [Joseph] Stalin was obliged to use force and kill. Mao Tse-tung was obliged to use force and kill. To mention only two recent cases, without raking over the whole history of the world.
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
I would not let myself be intimidated by Yahya Khan, his methods had led us to disaster.
Zulfikar Ali Bhutto
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.
Zulfikar Ali Bhutto
Tikka Khan was a soldier doing a soldier's job.
Zulfikar Ali Bhutto
I can't destroy the whole army, and anyway [Tikka Khan] bad reputation for the events in Dacca is exaggerated.
Zulfikar Ali Bhutto
Even to get Yahya Khan to reason was an impossible task - it only made you lose your temper.
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
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
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
[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
Mujib [Rahman] talks at random, depending on his mood and the disorders of his sick mind.
Zulfikar Ali Bhutto
Lets build a monument for the veto. Lets build a monument for impotence and incapacity.
Zulfikar Ali Bhutto
The sanction of force stands behind the medley of personal orders and regulations of Martial Law. The sanction of the people's consent stands behind the hierarchy of laws. In one situation, the population is regimented into acquiescence. In the other, the population voluntarily establishes a contract with Parliament.
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
[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 ] had given me an appointment for the following day. And, days later, General Mohd Umar revealed to me that he'd resorted to this stratagem so that I'd stay in Dacca and see the efficiency of the army. I give you my word of honor that all this is true.
Zulfikar Ali Bhutto
Yes, there are circumstances where a bloody suppression is justifiable and justified.
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
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.
