I'm sure Sharon is quaking in his boots...not!

"'Don't become involved in our region so that we are not dragged into doing something similar in your region,' the paper quoted officials as saying."

Hmm, I wonder what "something similar" this guy could be talking about. I guess he's threatening to sell the PLO AWACS planes and ABM systems, right? Surely, surely he couldn't possibly be talking about anything like allowing his country's intelligence agency to sponsor terrorist acts—as we all know, because Musharraf told us so, Pakistan just doesn't do that sort of thing.

I think an alliance between Hindus and Jews against the Muslims would be appropriate. They've both suffered much at the hands of the followers of Muhammed.

The Phalcon system will be a natural adjuct to the Arrow ABM system. You can't really have ABM without early warning capabilities.

Sounds like India is trying to do Star-Wars-on-the-Cheap. After they work out all the kinks, do you think the Democrats in Congress will let us buy it from them?

I think India is on the right track, stressing defense before deterrence. MAD does not work with madmen.

He should tell the Paki buggers to pi$s off!

Pakistan, founded in 1947, is a failure as a country, despite a whole world trying to help it.

Israel, founded in 1948, is a success despite being despised by all.

Surely Pakistan ought to keep its advice to itself, and try to put its own house in order.

""Don't become involved in our region so that we are not dragged into doing something similar in your region," the paper quoted officials as saying." (Pakistan to Israel)

Is there any doubt now of the importance of a solid, reliable and committed US-India-Israel alliance? All of this pandering to Pakistan only ends up with India getting more innocent civilians killed, and Pakistan becoming more and more arrogant, trying to assert itself as a "dominant power" in the Islamic world.

We should have no illusions here - Pakistan is neither a friend to the United States, Israel, or India.

The World's most powerful democracy (the U.S.), the World's smallest democracy (Israel), and the World's largest democracy (India) need to seize the moment NOW and solidify their mutual respect, loyalty, honor, brotherhood, devotion to the Rule of Law, secularism, racial and religious harmony, progress, commerce, freedom, and capitalism.

The new Triumvirate must be a beacon of light for the entire world.

"Don't become involved in our region so that we are not dragged into doing something similar in your region," the paper quoted officials as saying.

This sounds like a direct threat to sell/give a nuke to the PLO or Hamas maybe.
