Dr AQ Khan is "Mentally Dead"

Dead men and vegetables tell no tales
Ex-Ambassador Reveals Dr AQ Khan is Already Mentally Dead

The man behind Pakistan's "prestigious" nuclear program was rushed to a military hospital Thursday (June 16) with a heart problem. Dr AQ Khan, who lives in ignominy and incarceration since he was singled out by Musharraf for export of nuclear technology, is learnt to have been rendered into a vegetable.
Rendered? Is pureed a choice?

#6  Mike -

How about, "Not only simply merely dead, but truly most SINCERELY dead?"
And not to forget Blackadder Dead: "As dead as...a great big dead thing."

#5  "It just so happens that your leading nuclear scientist here is only MOSTLY dead. There's a big difference between mostly dead and all dead. Mostly dead is slightly alive. With all dead, well, with all dead there's usually only one thing you can do."

"What's that?"

"Go through his clothes and look for loose change."

#3  There's no way the US ever gets Khan. The ISI would never allow it. "Rendered" is probably the right word cuz the ISI likely turned his brain to jello.

#2  Either they render him into Broccoli or hand him over to the USA.
There is a debt to be paid.

US (taxpayers) have provided Pakistan with weapons meant to neutralize any Indian conventional advantage:

26 Jetranger helicopters
40 Cobra attack helicopters
6 C-130E Refurbished Hercules
5 Aerostat radars
6 AN/TPS-77 counterfire radars plus Command & Control software
8 P-3C Refurbished & Upgraded Orions
6 Phalanx CIWS
2,000 TOW missiles
60 Harpoon missiles
300 Sidewinder missiles
Tactical Radios
155mm Howitzers
75 F16s

Perv has to deliver...

#1  Lol - love the pic!

Ah, what can I say? Read the story, loved it. 3 thumbs up. It fills a much-needed gap in my understanding of the quite peculiar mindset of PakiWakiIsm. I am sated.
