Laser_weapon Anybody can come up with a conspiracy theory, but what gives a conspiracy theory real legs is when it intertwines dramatic political events with science fiction technology. And that's what we have with bizarre reports of laser weapons being used to assassinate Benazir Bhutto. A newspaper in Pakistan is quoting Pakistan People's Party leader Babar Awan saying that that a laser gun was used to kill Bhutto. ''The X-ray reports suggested that there were two to three tiny radio densities under each fractured segments on both projections which were in fact invisible electromagnetic radiations. After these medical reports there was no need for further post-mortem or exhumation," Awan reportedly said.

Now a bunch of other news outlets are picking up the "high tech weapon/laser beam" story. Let the conspiracy theories fly.
