People think we should wring our hands horribly over Iran?
Hardly. Think Pakistan.
Iran is working on fissionables.
Pakistan has nukes now. Today. On the tips of missiles.
If Pakistan falls, if President Gen. Pervez Musharraf’s secular government teeters and collapses, Islam will have its hands on Pakistan’s entire nuclear arsenal. And then what do you suppose might happen next?

As I’ve said before, all these Bush-Bots annoucing victory over al-Qaeda in Iraq are living in a dream world. No body beat al-Qaeda in Iraq, they just up and moved to Pakistan to get ready for exactly what is happening now.
We have a big problem on our hands and we have a gutless wonder boy in office, we’re screwed.
Iraq, Iraq, Iraq, what a waste of time, people and money.
This administrations judgement is bad and always has been. Who didn’t see this coming?
And Yes, let me be clear, I blame Bush for this.
What happen to, “You can’t hide?”
When OBL tippytoed into Pakistan, he DID hide.
BZ
He didn’t hide as much as we backed off.
Nobody can hide from us, nobody.
BZ, The problem as I see it… mind you I’m not a genius or anything but…PCness is what is driving us to the brink of Nuclear war.
Right now, Pakistan is a nuclear nation, We allowed that to happen.
India is in danger, because we allowed them to have Nukes as well.
Our nation is “semi-secure” because Pakistan can’t reach our shores, but if they unload a nuke ANYWHERE, We go.
PCness, has allowed the Pakistani Muslim radicals to take hold, what is needed to deal with theses assholes is; mind bending violence with NO apology…
Muslim nutjobs understand one thing and one thing only, Allah is all powerful and will save the Muslims…Well if we started wiping them out systematically, they might understand that Allah is not on their side….PCness is costing a lot more lives than it is saving…
The liberal mentality, the short term thinking disorder they exhibit permeates their cranium, the only solution is Liberal+rope+tree… Some assembly required.
Who’s running this country and our military?
Liberals or Bush?
The last time I checked, Bush was CIC, am I wrong
No worries, Hillary will fix everything when she gets in office.
Besides, isn’t Islam the religion of peace? what do have to worry about?
If Hillery gets into office we’re not only screwed, we’re FUCKED.
Now is the time to deal with this, right FUCKING NOW.
Bush: I don’t necessarily disagree, but EVERYONE’s been tippytoeing around Pakistan, hoping they DON’T turn completely Islamist. Right now, the Big 7 Nuke States are Britain, China, France, India, Pakistan, Russia and the United States. India conducted its first nuclear test in 1974. Pakistan held their first tests in 1998. India’s main religion is Hinduism (828 million). Pakistan’s main religion is Islam at 96% of the population. I think we can all do the math on that one.

Well, not much left to say that hasn’t been, but I said Iraq was a waste of life, time and money a LONG time back, and i was soundly castigated for it by certain members of the so-called REPUBLICAN blogosphere, I wonder who they blame now??
OBL is in Pakistan IF he’s alive, Iraq was NOT a threat to us, Iraq was George W. Bush’s fuck up and anyone with half a brain and ANY idea of military Intel knew it right from the start…
If we don’t ALL get fucking nuked by these goddamned zealots it WILL be a miracle, but if they DO manage to get one off, I hope it flies right up GWB’s ass, the Saudi loving SOB…
He has been blaming the wrong one since he claimed Iraq as an enemy, he has done his best to prop up Pakistan and blow the goddamned Saudis, and look at this mess we’re in, and WHO is going to straighten it out??
Condi?? Oh hell yeah, the BLACK WOMAN, the least respected and most useless POS in the diplomatic corps…
The goddamned Arabs have no use for us to begin with and then this mindless SOB of a POTUS sends ‘brown sugar’ in to do the deal…
Renando, Bush is running our country now, he has ran it into the ground but he is in charge… However; since the liberals are in charge of congress, and the media any action now against our REAL threats, will not be allowed…
Bush lost congress, he had help, but he was CIC.
I am laying off discussing Iraq for a while, I am waiting until the next report/hearing/debate or whatever in Feb or March, No matter how angry we get at Bush, he isn’t pulling our troops out until Patreus says so, or he is forced to, and last time I checked No one I know has that kind of pull….
I choose to stay on the ILLEGAL Immigration fight against the rotten SOB.
1 more year of Bush. ONE MORE YEAR to hopefully get an America first person in the WH.
we want Musharraf in power in pakistan, why pretend we don’t? any election there will likely put extremists in power.
Saddam is gone and we have military bases on both east and west sides of Iran, why is THAT a bad thing?
Bush is blowing the Saudi’s because the AMERICAN ELECTORATE is blowing the Saudi’s, and have been since Bush was in Jr. high school. we depend on foreign oil because we let the tree huggers and tort lawyers have sway for years, and considering all the new and improved ecological mass hysteria going on today we have NO DESIRE to change that.
when the electorate decides national security is more important than the tort law lottery, or snail darters, maybe we will produce our own energy and quit paying all our money to the saudi’s, every other Arab nutjob and Hugo Chavez. let them go back to being hateful poor camel jockeys instead of hateful trillionaires with billions to spend on weapons and propaganda.
sadly, I think we will face a serious defeat from Russia and arab countries before we will decide whining amongst ourselves and not keeping the eye on the big picture is rather counterproductive.
ranando
Yes we want Musharriff in power as opposed to the option of having islamic extremeists in charge of Pakistan. There is a slight chance of a moderate elected govt but not a very strong one. The worst thing that can happen is for the US to pull the rug out from under him like Jimmy the Peanutbrain did to the Shah. We all know how well that worked out.
Musharaf is likely the least offensive manager of Pakistan we’ll ever likely encounter and I doubt, after X-number of assassination attempts and the most recent events, he’ll be around in a year. It appears the only course is that of Pakistan falling completely into Muslim hands in terms of the populace and its concomitant government. Lord help us near and far.

If it’s a majority muzzie nation, one must look at it with wide open eyes. Period.
Blo,
Just an F.Y.I. I am in the process of re-structuring my blog. It will take the rest of this week. So by next week, I will be up and ready!
The new address is: http://www.rightthinkwithrivka.blogspot.com
It is called: Right Think, with Rivka.
Rebecca: well, looks to me like I’m just going to have to make an announcement about that, won’t I?
BZ
R: you are NOW in The Usual Suspects blogroll.
BZ
Plain and simple, IF Musharraf goes down, the rest of the world is in deep shit… And we have a moron at Americas helm…
And here is one thing else to consider, IF Pakistan falls India will go ballistic, they are the 1st and closest target, and there is an inherent HATRED between India and the Pakis.. And India has had an itchy trigger finger for a long time now…
TF: and besides being neighbors, India knows it has the kind of nuclear command and control systems that will be absolutely ignored or overridden by any incoming Islamist regime.
BZ
As much complaining as I hear about Bush, and he deserves most of it, keep in mind that he was by far the lesser of two evils in last two elections. We’re not going to have good candidates from either party and every 3rd party is just as bad.
I have never worry about traveling to any country. My wife and I have a trip coming up to India to meet with the manufacturer that supplies our bedding line.
I have to tell you, I’m worried and I don’t worry about much.
We fly into smaller airports not the big International airport. Locals always pick us up and make sure we are always safe and taken care of.
We’re going but I’m worried, no I’m concerned.
Ranando: your time could be better, I suppose.
