Mujib [Rahman] talks at random, depending on his mood and the disorders of his sick mind.
Zulfikar Ali Bhutto
[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.
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
To conclude, the tragedy of March 25 [1969] caught me by surprise. Yahya Khan fooled even me.
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
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
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
Pakistan was once called the most allied ally of the United States. We are now the most non-allied.
Zulfikar Ali Bhutto
Even to get Yahya Khan to reason was an impossible task - it only made you lose your temper.
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
I'm not trying to minimize things I'm trying to bring them back to reality.
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
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
Every government, every country, has the right to exercise force when necessary.
Zulfikar Ali Bhutto
For instance, in the name of unity. You can't build without destroying.
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
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
I would not let myself be intimidated by Yahya Khan, his methods had led us to disaster.
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
If things do not change, there will be nothing left to change. Either power must pass to the people or everything will perish.
