If you are somehow convinced Pakistan's nuclear armament is a primary factor in our current decision making module for the country, you may want to re-evaluate your criteria.
And you know this how, cadet?

Just put a face to those phone numbers and then a bullet in those faces. What's the problem?

as far as their nukes are considered they cant land on US soil,they dont have missiles of that range which can even reach US soil.

but yes their missiles can reach india and very well reach israel too,they are as careful with israel as they are with india.

pakis dont like the US,especially the civilians there they hate america a lot,and some were like "it's great congress is thinking of passing a bill to freeze US aid to us,we dont need it!!"

the worst part is their ISI,you can never ever trust them,they'll say one thing and do another.

and amongst the worst parts of paki propaganda is they say US is the creator of taliban,al-qaeda,haqqani etc.,when the true story is completely different atleast with the taliban-they supported them as india and russia were helping ahmad shah's northern alliance,to help them beat the alliance to take over kabul gen. musharraf had sent some 20000 paki army troops to fight alongside the taliban against the NA.

You don't need a ICBM, all you need is a shipping container, or a closer launch site/platform within the range of your existing missiles.

The ISI could put one on a commercial flight from Pakistan to the US and pop it when they are over New York, DC, or any other city they fly into.

And how many Americans are concentrated at Bagram?

The day is coming when a WMD is going to be used by one of these nutty states.

We need to keep funding ABM activities (including the ones we already "don't" have).
We also need a president whose "presence" is such that a head of a nutty state will think twice before using that WMD on us.

Don't need to outrun the bear.
Just need to outrun everyone else.

whaddaya think?

http://www.fas.org/sgp/crs/nuke/R40154.pdf -a document concerning Scientific Research on Detection of Nuclear Weapons and Materials (unclassified)

Referring to the above link; I met a gov't physicist few years back that stated something to the effect of "coming soon - to a satellite near you", and basically explained that the US will have "a really great orbital microscope", although similar technology has existed for years...

I am also hopeful that the efforts to secure vulnerable materials have not been futile:
http://energy.gov/articles/busy-year...ng-world-safer

I feel that the effects of a Dirty Bomb/WMD being used on our soil could be devastating for the world.

I firmly believe that the suits in the district need to loosen their collars, and let the sof community do what it was designed to do. I support you guys 200% and some!

i agree on that sir,yes that is very important to consider that they wont care bombing american bases in a'stan as they dont care if americans or afghans die.though they care a hell lot about the chinese who i feel wreak of evil.

as an indian i feel very happy to see the american warriors especially the QP's accepting the reality of pakistan.

thank you

hence the more important that iran doesnt achieve its goals,but still can we trust the chinese who wouldn't mind a bit helping them secretly in return for loyalty as ofcourse the chinese are commie's they wont mind a bit sending them to hell if they play bad boy with them.

what do the QP's think if iran or any of these nutties approached russia would the russians help them??
