Bush has been orchestrating a publicity campaign since early 2002
telling us we should worry about Iraq, while he and his cronies are
actually worried about oil profits.
Now that Bush has made a mess of the Middle East and prevented Iraq
from producing very much oil for a long time to come, what should we
really be worried about? According to top U.S. foreign policy experts,
we should be worried about Pakistan.
Here's a quote from Foreign Policy magazine:
"A Perfect Nightmare
A perfect terrorist storm may be brewing in Pakistan. When asked to
choose the nation that is most likely to become the next al Qaeda
stronghold, more experts chose Pakistan than any other country,
including Iraq. Osama bin Laden reportedly remains at large along
Pakistan's mountainous border with Afghanistan, where al Qaeda is also
regrouping; the country's intelligence service is said to be still
cooperating with radical Islamist elements; and President Pervez
Musharraf's political future seems increasingly imperiled. These
developments would not be as worrisome had the experts not also said
that Pakistan is the country most likely to transfer nuclear
technology to terrorists in the next three to five years. Together,
it's a terrifying combination. . ."
