1999:Paki Cottonpicking Finger on the Nuclear Trigger Rogue Paki Wooky Spooky generals (Schmucks) run amok 'Army kept PM in dark' By Masood Haider NEW YORK, May 13: The Pakistan army mobilized its nuclear arsenal against India in July, 1999, without the knowledge of the then Prime Minister, Nawaz Sharif, a senior White House adviser in the Clinton administration at the time has disclosed. The details of the paper, to be published shortly by the University of Pennsylvania and obtained by the Sunday Times and an Indian paper, reveal that Bruce Riedel, who was a senior adviser to Bill Clinton on India and Pakistan, recalls how President Clinton was told that he faced the most important foreign policy meeting of his career. If, as Riedel implies, Sharif was kept in the dark about his nuclear program, he suffered a similar embarrassment to that of his predecessor, Benazir Bhutto, who is said to have asked the CIA for a briefing on Islamabad's nuclear capability because that privilege was denied to her by her own generals.
