The Pakistani Nuke Issue

Might boil over, so I’m glad to hear this:

The United States has a detailed plan for infiltrating Pakistan and securing its mobile arsenal of nuclear warheads if it appears the country is about to fall under the control of the Taliban, Al Qaeda or other Islamic extremists.

American intelligence sources say the operation would be conducted by Joint Special Operations Command, the super-secret commando unit headquartered at Fort Bragg, N.C.

If it looks like the government of Pakistan is about to collapse, then securing Pakistan’s nuclear weapons will be required. Its not a matter of “should” but “must” – no ifs, ands or buts about it, we have to go get them, cost what it might. Nothing which could happen in the course of getting those weapons would be worse than allowing those weapons to fall into the hands of messianic fanatics.

While President Obama can rely upon it that his base will be lukewarm, at best, over such an action he can rely absolutely upon conservatives to back him 100%. No horror stories, no planted “American criminal” propaganda will sway us from support to opposition – when the guns go off, the only thing we seek is victory in the shortest amount of time for the least possible cost and only a clear unwillingness to fight for such could turn us to opposition.
