Nothing can be more worse than the Taliban or any other Islamist organization getting hold of some of Pakistan's nuclear weapons. These groups do not have regard for the life of others, in fact they don't even care for their own lives. The most important thing for them is service to Allah and

(cont.) a place in Allah's heaven. In other words, deterrence or the old Cold War MAD logic will not work against them.

The world's survival including India's, requires the neutralization of Pakistan's strategic assets, both in manpower and hardware. They've proven that they are the epicenter of global terrorism. India must turn up the heat or risk losing out on this opportune moment and lapse in Pakistani hegemony.
India has treated Pakistan with due respect like a legitimate state which she do not deserve though. Pakistani nuclear programme was left uninterrupted when India was very well in a position and right to confiscate those assets with an excuse of Pakistan's aggressive intentions.

I do not think Pakistani strategic assets are any concern to India in a peace time but her frequent idiocies of a typical rouge state are.

To the likes of K.Sunder Ji and many Indian politicians our vision was more academic with a foresight of confronting discriminating NTP/CTBT regimes as far as letting Pakistan to become a nuclear power was concerned.

This has tested Indian patience a big time but somehow we still believe that our founding fathers (responsible for our nuclear deterrence) had a better vision thus we are tolerating nuclear terrorism of Pakistan till today. Pakistan may think that she can change the universal laws of nuclear deterrence with unique examples like Kargil but i believe India has gained heaps by letting them do what they are doing.

It not like Indian believing pessimist laws of Karma but a game of chess when your knight intimidate opponent to move pawns where they are not supposed to be by becoming an inviting prey and then is moved back to barracks unhurt. We haven't lost much and we are growing faster irrespective of usual Pakistani dialogues about Kashmir as a contention to peace and prosperity of this region, nuclear flash point blah blah"¦ Furthermore it's about forcing them to make a group which they are not supposed to be in. I mean it's not about Pakistan but sino-pak nexus where China will be doing something extravagant which she is not supposed to do by rescuing her rouge friend every now and then and betting her credibility; under the sceptical eye of another hyper power.

Interestingly, If Pakistan may be able to fling out from this impending terrorist state tag, world attention be diverted away from her and will be back with flying colours to its usual business to support terrorism in India exclusively, then India would still have an option to go for the war and win. We have gained our right to punish Pakistan long way back; at whim. Pakistan shouldn't forget it any time; it's good for them.

Taliban aims to take over Pak, its nukes



The Taliban has said they have no plans to attack Pakistan's nuclear arsenal, asserting that it is the only Muslim state possessing such weapons and the terror group aims to take over the country, as well as its nukes. Taliban has stepped-up violent campaign to avenge Osama bin Laden's death has renewed fears that the country's warheads could be vulnerable.

Declaring that "Pakistan is the only Muslim nuclear power state," Taliban Spokesman Ehsanullah Ehsan said that his group had no intention of changing the fact, Wall Street Journal reported. The Taliban, after all, aim to take over Pakistan and its weapons, he said.

A well coordinated Taliban attack on Pakistan key naval airbase at Karachi had triggered fresh global alarm that radical militant groups operating from the country's restive tribal areas bordering Afghanistan might be out to snatch nuclear weapons.

Seeking to dismiss these concerns, Ehsan claimed that US was using this as an excuse to pressurise Pakistan government and military into fighting Taliban, whom he portrayed as country's true protectors.
