Bhutto
It was only three days ago - after a bombing in Pakistan had killed 50 people - that I posted a news link to this story and asked if Pakistan might be the last hurrah for Al-Qaeda.
Musharraf has been unable and unwilling to control the Afghanistan/Pakistan borders and Al-Q and the Taliban have safe haven here where many of the tribal people support them. I also mentioned that Pakistan's nukes are obviously coveted by the Islamist radicals.
Now that Benazir Bhutto has been assassinated, things are looking even more precarious, and it is creating great concern around the world over the country’s sizeable nuclear arsenal.
We must be concerned that the assassination of Pakistan opposition leader Benazir Bhutto brings closer the nightmare of al-Qaida (or its affiliates) being armed with nuclear weapons.
Not only is the death of Bhutto a setback for Pakistan, but Bhutto's death Imperils Afghanistan.
