Israel and the US should be focusing more on the Taliban’s rise in nuclear Pakistan than on Iran’s nuclear aims, more and more experts are saying.
“Pakistan must move to the top of our strategic agenda,” writes former US Ambassador to the UN John Bolton. Similarly, “Nuclear Taliban/Al Qaida is a far more ominous threat than nuclear Iran could ever be,” writes Byron Ellis, who heads the international Jethro Project consulting company.
I’d bet my bottom dollar, we are going to sit back and watch as those weapons fall into the wrong hands, while President Obama attempts to “talk” with the Taliban to try to convince them they should not have those weapons. If that happens, what do you think will happen next in this country of ours?
The Taliban/Al Qaeda are clearly seeking Pakistans Nuclear Arsenal, there is no other logical explanation why they are advancing towards Islamabad.Most of Pakistan nukes are located south of the capital. The Taliban are confident that the United States will not send troops anytime soon to Pakistan. It is up to the Pakistani military to stop them. I strongly believe that in the event the military is uncapable and the Taliban/Al Qaeda reach Islamabad, Israel should strongly consider bombing the sites of course with the support and approval of the United States. I believe that the Taliban are looking to take over Islamabad before the winter. My advise is to send troops now.
If any of the arsenal are seized by the Taliban, a preventative nuclear strike is the ONLY option open.
Yes a nuclear strike is the only option if the Taliban seized Pakistan Nukes. I don’t think President Obama would ever order the strike.Israel really would have to step up, with or with out the U.S. support they would have to strike. My advise strike now. Today Pakistan launched and all out war against the Taliban in the Swat Valley, they even used their fighter jets. I was shocked, I think the Pakistanis feel very vulnerable now. The U.S. must not assume that this is a sign of steped up cooperation , it’s not. It’s a clear sign of desesperation.
