Secretary of State Clinton told the US Global Leadership Coalition Conference in London, that, "Countries that will not tax their elites, but expect us to come in and help them serve their people are just not going to get the kind of help from us that they have been getting. Pakistan cannot have a tax rate of nine percent of [gross domestic product] when landowners and all of the other elites do not pay anything, or pay so little it's laughable..."

Pakistan’s Nuclear Arsenal Tops 100: Report
http://news.yahoo.com/s/afp/20110131/wl_asia_afp/uspakistannuclearweapons_20110131055715

Pakistan has doubled its nuclear weapons stockpile over the past several years, increasing its arsenal to more than 100 deployed weapons, The Washington Post reported late Sunday.

Citing US non-government analysts, the newspaper said that only four years ago, the Pakistani nuclear arsenal was estimated at 30 to 60 weapons.

“They have been expanding pretty rapidly,” the report quoted David Albright, president of the Institute for Science and International Security, as saying.

Based on recently accelerated production of plutonium and highly enriched uranium, Islamabad may now have an arsenal of up to 110 weapons, Albright said.

As a result, Pakistan has now edged ahead of India, its nuclear-armed rival, The Post noted. India is estimated to have 60 to 100 weapons.

Sorry. I meant to type: "They need more moo-lah!"

[Abathar]

I read that they now have about 110 nukes just sitting there waiting to be used.

That in the real problem with losing Pakistan, will it go down without a fight.

At the pace and ferocity at which events in the middle-east are unfolding, perhaps the Myans did get it right after all. 2012 could be the end.

All of this is just crazy....

and the world moves on...

Mayans, Nostradamus, Revelations, Mahdi...

All point to a “Time.” The only ones who seek to “quicken” it are ????

I don’t mind them collapsing, each and every one of them, as long as our government does not make this an excuse to allow more Muslims into the country.

Hell, our own collapse is not far off.

Where do they get their money?

Well, we're giving them about $1.5 billion every year in economic aid and grants. That's not including military aid, which last year was over $2 billion by itself. It also doesn't include contributions through the World Bank.

Pakistan’s Nuclear Arsenal Tops 100: Report

Yep...I read that somewhere previously. May have even been here at FR. And, that's what I had in mind when I posted the comment.

Truly frightening!

[jennychase]

They are using money to build nukes, later they can sell them.
In reality, they are beggars, they will keep on begging.
Pakistan is a welfare state.
