#1 He said Pakistan ...would not allow any outsider to interfere in "matters that were truly ours, but if anyone from the IAEA comes here we will tell them everything.
LOL! Translation: The IAEA is so useless, how could it hurt?

As for Moo-Sherrif, I gotta say, I think this was a very successful tactic. Yes, I had sex with that woman, but it wasn't my fault and now it's all in the past and we need to move on for the good of the country. [voice over applause] smooth, very smooth indeed. It just might work.

#2 One good thing. He's putting down UN which only means he's more than willing to deal with US.

Disturbing is that he's still equivocating on Kashmir as he gives the standard Islamic Conference Organization typical tactic of changing the subject. ("First let's discuss the meaning of the word, ladies and gentlemen of the Left.") So does he want a solution there or not? He gains nothing getting the Indians irritated. Kashmir does not threaten the democratic traditions of India, both socially and institutionally. I thought he had tipped the scales toward the US in the pardon affair, but he still has at least a few toes in the other camp's side. Let's be sure to have all the phones working between New Delhi and DC.
