 Fall of Zulfiqar Ali Bhutto and his Family was due to his attaining 
Nuclear Power for Pakistan The explosive situation in the region is the 
direct or indirect result of the threat hurled by Dr. Henry Kissinger to
 late. Bhutto and tacit support of Ronald Reagan to the so-called 
Islamic Dictator General Mohammad Ziaul Haq (1977-1988). - "QUOTE" "It 
is generally believed that the US wanted Zulfiqar Ali Bhutto to be 
removed from the political scene of Pakistan mainly on two accounts. 
First, for the nuclear policy that he framed and tried to relentlessly 
pursue and secondly, from apprehensions that ZAB was influencing the 
countries. He posed a serious challenge to the US interests in the 
region. “Tally-ho. Kill Zulfiqar Ali Bhutto, “ yelled the 
self-proclaimed policemen of the world. During August 1976, American 
Secretary of States, Dr. Henry Kissinger had warned Bhutto, “We will 
make a horrible example of you,” adding menacingly, “When the railroad 
is coming, you get out of the way.” The American had successfully 
cultivated a number of well-placed bureaucrats, PPP stalwarts and 
ministers who wittingly or inadvertently served as the US agents of 
influence. American diplomats and CIA operators not only got most of the
 ‘inside’ information from these ‘gentlemen’ but also utilized their 
good offices to ‘convey’ whatever they wanted to feed or plant. Some 
officers from USMAAG had also made meaningful ingresses in the General 
Headquarters and not only gathered the thinking in the Services 
Headquarters but would also drop a ‘suggestion’ here and there.

Some
 of the US Diplomats had established direct contacts with a number of 
PNA leaders whom they continued to aid, support and give day-to-day line
 of action. A number of US diplomats were not only actively involved but
 also directed the operations against Bhutto. Jan M. Gibney, Political 
Officer, US Consulate General, Lahore, duly assisted by a couple of 
Pakistanis, was extremely active and would frequently visit a number of 
Politicians Maulana Maudoodi of Jamat-e-Islami and Maulan Obaidullah 
Anwar, Jamiat-e-Ulmai- Islam of Sheranwala Gate, Lahore. Apart from 
holding meetings, a wireless network had been established between the 
USIS-US Consulate General – Maulana Maudoodi’s residence. It was Gibney 
who had telephoned and conveyed to Howard B. Schaffer, Chief of 
Political Affairs, US Embassy, Islamabad, that notorious sentence, “The 
party is over. Merchandise has gone.” The US had also released PL-480 
funds. Over night some Jamat-e-Islami workers were seen with pockets 
full of money and spending lavishly. A number of businessmen, 
particularly those, who had suffered due to ZAB’s economic and 
industrial policies, had also been prompted to contribute towards the 
PNA funds. As there were no party accounts being maintained as such, the
 contributions were received personally by some of the leaders. Justice 
(Retd.) Kaikaus and Rafiq Ahmed Bajwa are among those who are alleged to
 have made millions."
