Debka said so....

[Dallas59]

Praise Allah.

[PA-RIVER]

Powder keg ready to blow ..... ROP alert

[kidd]

While Debka is about as reliable as the National Enquirer, it is true that Obama’s Pakistan policy is entirely inept and dangerous.

Many people are going to die because of Obama.

I’ve always had a feeling the Indian-Pakistani situation would be where there is actually an exchange of nuclear weapons. If it comes about, I just hope the Indians decided to kill two birds at the same time by hitting Iran, too.

[Joe Boucher]

So? What’s it gonna be? Blow up India?
Blow up Israel?
Teach the US.A a lesson?
Decisions decisions decisions.

AAAAHHHHH Pakistan.

[Buckeye McFrog]

and an hour after they use them to kill 100 million Indians, the other 900 million are coming straight over the hill to kick their ass....

[Billthedrill]

It may actually be so, but not quite in the way the authors are presenting. The highest echelons of Pakistani intelligence, military, and politics have been compromised for years. These are the people that clear the people who are actually onsite. A well-designed and -implemented security system can allow for a certain level of compromise and still function (to a point). The question is not whether it is compromised, but by how much.

There is a second question in play - should the Taliban become the legitimate government, we aren't talking in terms of compromise at all, but simple, overt takeover by the new owners. No security system can guard against that.

Could you comment on this report, please. I value your opinions more than comments from Obama.

[TBP]

That’s possible, and it shows why we and they should have supported Musharraf rather than making the same mistake that was made with regard to China, Cuba, Iran,a nd Nicaragua.

[genghis]

no worries
obama will fix it.

[Blackhawk]

[swarthyguy]

This should be evaluated in conjunction with a story in the WSJ yesterday that two SF teams, size undetermined had been sent to the unnamed frontier and tribal areas, to help train the FrontierCorps, a Sisyphusian exercise in futility if there ever was one, but probably a figleaf for their true purpose, which would be nuclear related.

The Paki military is probably highly split among the upper ranks as well, with pro and anti US camps doing a deadly shadow dance for now.

[Ernest_at_the_Beach]

fyi

[G8 Diplomat]

Relax people, it's coming from Debka. You know what I think of when I hear Debka? I think of the Levantine dabkeh dance. An intel site with the same name as Arabic line dancing? Yeah that's trustworthy. LOL

[McGruff]

Claims about the high-level exchange between New Delhi and Washington were made in the Debka...
