#1 Fazl, who is also the JUI ameer, said the crisis could only be resolved through political dialogue, not by force.

Horsepuckey. You could count on one hand the number of problems in the Arab world that were resolved through 'political dialogue'.

#2 Ahhh, but this is Pakistan, Raj, and they aren't Arabs, merely Muslims.... so it is theoretically possible that they might maybe solve the problem through 'political dialogue.' I'd put the likelihood down in the single digit percents, perhaps even digits to the right of the decimal point, but still. ;-)

#4 "#3 This country is ripe for takeover."

LOL! That is such an amazingly flexible statement - my compliments! Lessee... Possible interpretations... Hmmmm...

I'm thinking really hard, lol, but once this image flashed into my mind, well hell, I just can't seem to get past it: a really really big smokin' hole - all sorta glassy and shimmery in the moonlight. It's so shiny, yet not a towel to be seen.
