World Affairs Board - View Single Post - A high-stakes nuclear gamble

An interesting question.

Actually, it is a non issue since what Bush wants to do, he shall do. That is what is the way things have happened so far.

I am not an American, but the concern does appear worrisome to Pakistan even though there is always China (for Pakistan) to fall back upon as has been the form both in nuclear and missile technology.

One would have appreciated equal concern when AQ Khan was peddling nuclear secrets and technology to rogue states!

In comparison, India's nuclear history is spectacular and has the fine toothed comb analysis of the US and its secret agencies. Bush would not join hands with an irresponsible nuclear nation.

The post being from Neo, I have had to be very careful in the reply since I respect his sensibilities. Though there is much that can be said.

Sadly, we, the common men do not decide the policies of the leaders of the world.
