If past administrations would have paid attention to the director of the Congressional Task Force on Terrorism and Unconventional Warfare, we would have been prepared. In three books, published throughout the 90's, Yossef Bodansky has been documenting the rise of Islamism and its terrorist network. Pakistan has been in the thick of it from the beginning, publically giving support to the US, while secretly working to undermine its interests in the region. The fact that it has been reported Pakistan is moving their nuclear weapons to China for "safe-keeping" should give you a clue as to what is happening. I hope the doomsday scenario also outlined in Bodansky's books doesn't happen: the US attacked by a combined overwhelming strike by the combined forces of Iraq, Iran, Syria, China, and N. Korea.

The fact that it has been reported Pakistan is moving their nuclear weapons to China for "safe-keeping" should give you a clue as to what is happening. But it's not a fact. All that has been reported is speculation, primarily by journalists in India, that Pakistan might do that rather than allow the nukes to be seized in a pro-Taliban coup. Pakistan has repeatedly stated that their nukes are in a completely safe command and control environment and that there is no danger of them falling into the hands of radicals.
It's important to keep fact and speculation apart in our minds.
