I'd give them a week to turn over the terrorists...we provide the list. If they don't... well... Interestingly...there are likely a whole bunch in this country... Jim

Dale:Of course, while this statement was being made, scrolling across the screen was a message that the U.S. was negotiating with Pakistan for rights to stage airstrikes from Pakistan. Presumably, if Pakistan were to agree to this, they would be struck off the list. Actually, Pakistan is very anti-terrorist. In fact, a former CIA official stated on TV last night that Pakistan has turned over more terrorists than any other nation. They appear, therefore, to be a solid ally in this situation. eCo

The biggest wild card in such a scenario is that both Pakistan and North Korea have nuclear weapons. Neither could strike the U.S., but if North Korea were to launch strikes against South Korea, Japan, and Russia, they could possibly significantly reduce international support for the U.S. actions. I think Pakistan has nukes but few of them and they are not really set up in nuclear weapons systems. I suppose they could load a nuke up in a big truck and drive it across a border but I don't see what the motivation would be, or what they would hope to gain. If North Korea nuked the South, Japan, and Russia their regime would be signing its own death warrent. Tim

Dale Re..If you recall, Senior left Saddam in charge.<<<<<< Because that was the terms under which the coalition was put together; to get Iraq out of Kuwait but not overthrow Saddam. Sorry, you will have to blame someone else. but if North Korea were to launch strikes against South Korea, Japan, and Russia, they could possibly significantly reduce international support for the U.S. actions. <<<< Get real. If north Korea used up their nuke on any country, the world wide outrage would be universal, not to mention North Korea would be fried to a crisp. In addition, N. Korea is trying to reestablish relations with Russia. I believe the terrorists would be sacrificed in a hurry.
