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..."

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.

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.
