That's it, combine this with the more emphatic warning from the state department, and this is it. Everybody out of the pool. Game over, man...

Not yet. Still needs a trigger. Like say, oh...
maybe a jihadi with a martyrdom wish.

Yup, when Rumsfeld arrives.

The exact same facts were reported in an earlier story this afternoon, but they weren't portrayed as "angry" at all.

"When's Rummy due?"

It was Thursday or Friday of last week that I heard him say, "next week" or in "about a week." (Can't remember which). I am expecting at the end of this week.

Pakistan has a death wish that may soon be fulfilled. Lunatics playing with nukes. If they want to live, all they have to do is stop helping the terrorists in Kashmir. But no, their Jihad is more important than their lives. So they will end of with neither Kashmir nor life.
