superhuman? the mafia kills a few guys every month here in NY. and it would send a good message to the underlings. as an alternative, don't kill him, take his wife and kids hostage and blackmail him. i know it sounds harsh, but we are talking about the potential for nukes to make their way into the US.

This is different. You have to identify someone in a foreign country who is protected by his own security. You have to either get a Pakistani or someone who can pass for Pakistani to infiltrate and get close. Apparently, if Ijaz is right, this guy is a fundamentalist and surrounds himself with true believers. You just can't get assigned to his detail.

And this neglects the fact that there could be multiple people under him who are also involved, and his assassination would alert them. It also could destabilize Pakistan, bringing Musharref down, which would NOT be a good thing right now.

Things aren't as simple as they first appear.
