| Pakistani tests nuke-capable cruise missile |
| 2007-03-22 |
| Pakistan says it has successfully tested a cruise missile capable of carrying a nuclear warhead. Oh, great... The country's armed forces said the missile had the capability of avoiding being detected by radars. That's sort of what cruise missiles are supposed to do, right? The Babar or Hatf-VII missile has a range of 700km (430 miles), the military said. You named your missile after a baby elephant? In February Pakistan test fired a nuclear-capable, surface-to-surface Hatf VI missile, with a much longer range of 2,000 km (1,250 miles). Earlier this month, Pakistan said it had successfully tested a short-range missile, also capable of carrying a nuclear warhead. The military did not say where Thursday's test took place. [India and Pakistan] stepped back from the brink of war after India blamed Pakistan for involvement in an armed attack on the parliament in Delhi in 2001. It's BusHitlers fault! |

| #4 you named your missile after a baby elephant? This being a Pak missile, it is named after an Afghan invader of India who slaughtered many hundreds of thousands of hindus. |
