And at river borders, I assume you would authorize bombing half a bridge.

If it comes down to exterminating sand rats, you and your stuffed-shirt leftie pals must be listed as unreliable and written off.

"Pull together" my ass...

re:"No, but I would support the destruction of their facilities assuming we could find them and I think we could."

Of course, that means that Iraq would already have the bomb. You would bomb the nuclear bomb making facilities, of a nation after they develop nuclear weapons? - sounds bass ackwards to me. Anyway, so you now agree that Saddam using a nuke, would not necessarily be suicidal?

re:"I think, however,the Israeli's would take of that"

When inspectors were in Iraq, they discovered that Iraq was only months away from having a nuclear device. Israel didn't take care of that one. Now, it wouldn't surprise me if "the facilities" are sitting under a hospital or elementry school. Still willing to take it out?

Yes Pakistan has the bomb. But the United States has usually had friendly relations with their leadership (military or civilian). And yes, many Pakistanis hate the United States. And yes, maybe some may even want to hit the U.S. with a nuke...that is after they get their advanced University training in America, raise their families in America, make their fortune in America, and then move back to Pakistan, rich.
