Pakistan on course to become Islamist state, U.S. experts say
2009-04-17
"on course"?
A growing number of U.S. intelligence, defense and diplomatic officials have concluded that there's little hope of preventing nuclear-armed Pakistan from disintegrating into fiefdoms controlled by Islamist warlords and terrorists, posing the a greater threat to the U.S. than Afghanistan's terrorist haven did before 9/11.
I seem to remember another another weak, anti-American president from 30 years ago and the consequences that are still with us.
"It's a disaster in the making on the scale of the Iranian revolution," said a U.S. intelligence official with long experience in Pakistan who requested anonymity because he wasn't authorized to speak publicly.

#7  but if the Islamic terrorists obtain and use nuclear devices, in the end, the Islamic world disappears by massive nuclear counterattack.

Not under the current president, it doesn't.

#3  What thesese so-called experts probably have not read is Wrechard's "Three Conjectures." I will spare the details, but if the Islamic terrorists obtain and use nuclear devices, in the end, the Islamic world disappears by massive nuclear counterattack. It is not pretty. READ IT. Perhaps DHS should read it, too.

#2  So, if the mad mullahs take over in Paki-waki land what will Zero do about the nukes?

What will India do?
What will Israel do?

What should we / they do?

This is probably the scariest scenario around for the world with the Islamo-fascist nut jobs getting the nukes they always wanted.

How long till the say "implement Sharia, or else!"?
