| Pakistan sold nukes to the Axis of Evil |
| 2004-02-06 |
| Our "ally" Pakistan sold nuclear technology to Libya, Iran, and North Korea. And no one will do anything about it. The way things were set up is that the technology was officially sold not by the Paki government, but by a "private" citizen, Abdul Qadeer Khan. Khan is one of the inventors of Pakistani nukes and is considered a national hero. Now, officially, Pakistan cannot be blamed for the actions of one private person. Khan was to stand trial for his actions, but... oops, now the government has pardoned him. Can’t blame the Paki government, they didn’t do it; can’t blame the fall guy, he is pardoned. Meanwhile, three of the worst dictatorships have nukes (or "nuclear technology", whatever that means). Hindustan Times: US calls pardon of Pak nuke father an internal matter |

| #12 Ben, I've always been suspicious of the whole idea of "psychological projection," but in this case it seems to apply. Why do the lefties always screan "Bush=Hitler"? Perhas because they understand, at some level, that this conflict is about freedom vs. fascism. But what their minds don't allow them to grasp is the fact that they have become the Nazis. Hence they project it on to Bush and company. |

| #11 Has anyone noticed how Africa, the Middle East, and the sub-continent have regressed to their pre-colonial chaos since European colonialism was dismantled. If the sun had never set upon the British Empire, how much better would the world have been? |

| #10 How is it possible for someone to be as stupid and bigoted as NotMikeMoore(but just as fat and stupid) and him still be breathing? Does his parents know he's using their computer? Or do they not go in their basement anymore? What tool. |

| #6 NMM, it was your side that bemoaned the deaths of Gore voters instead of Bush voters on 9-11. Don't even dare try to spin that bit of bastardy away. BTW -- did you get tired of your Faisal character? |

| #5 NMM: Again with your irrational bigotry, or at best a complete failure to understand the opposition. So what if Manhatten, or Berkeley went Gore. They are still Americans, and we don't cotton to folks killing Americans, or nuking Americans. What I see is psychological projection. This is probably how you would behave. Thankfully folks like myself and 4th InfVet, as well as almost all Republicans are far different. And I'll say it, better people than the likes of you. |

| #4 Spare me 4th infvet--you and your ilk would like nothing better than to see a mushroom cloud over Manhattan since it's full of people who totally disagree with your lying war-mongering president--remember NYC was 80% for Gore before the election process was usurped by the hand-picked Republican Supreme Court--so spare me your worries for Manhattan |

| #3 too much dependence on our tech and not enough on having people on the ground |

| #2 Questions also have to be asked about why the CIA and other intelligence outfits are 'shocked' to discover something that has been an open secret in the region for years. |

| #1 It is way, way, WAY beyond time for certain mutts to start falling out of hotel room windows and stepping in front of buses. Obviously the 'nice guy' angle will just get one or more of our large cities incinerated. If they want to play hardball with the varsity, we need to be pitching inside, if not throwing at their heads. When the mushroom cloud blooms over Manhattan it will be too late to abandon accomodation. |
