Old news. Pakistan obviously didn't have the bucks for nuclear program until the Saudis chipped in. I wonder how many nukes Saudi got in return and how long it will take for one to show up on our shores.

"It will be vehemently denied by both countries," added this ranking Pakistani source known to this correspondent for more than a decade as a knowledgeable insider, "but future events will confirm that Pakistan has agreed to provide KSA (Kingdom of Saudi Arabia) with the wherewithal for a nuclear deterrent."

Yep, with American troops in Iraq in force, the Saudis know we've flanked them. They are looking at a new way to try and insulate themselves from political pressure.

Some 12,000 Koranic schools provide free room and board to some 700,000 Pakistani boys (ages 6 to 16) where they are taught to read and write in Urdu and Arabic and recite the Koran by heart.

If people don't think this is a problem, they should check out this link.

"Both Pakistan and Saudi Arabia," the Pakistani source explained, "see a world that is moving from non-proliferation to proliferation of nuclear weapons."

This is a very scary and very true statment.

Pakistan has agreed to provide KSA (Kingdom of Saudi Arabia) with the wherewithal for a nuclear deterrent

Why a deterrent? Saudi Arabia is an aggressor nation (unless they want a deterrent to protect themselves from retribution from another country they brutalized eg..9/11/01.

Waiting much longer will put America and her allies at great peril. The jihadists' schemes and days must be brought to an end.

Ah...I say we should send the Pakis another couple of billion in "aid", which of course is from my and your tax dollars. Fu#$%rs.

Lets connect the dots when it comes to recent nuke proliferation;

China > Pakistan > North Korea, Iran, Saudi Arabia

Anyone else need some nukes? They must be on special.

OK sports fans. Did commie China start this ball rolling by helping out the Pakistani nuclear program? China has always figured that it can survive any attack due to it's large mass of people. China helped the Pakis to screw their mutal enemy India.


And how did China develope it's nukes? I think they are clever enough to have invented them on their own years ago.
