Comic thing is that these folks who are rapping Powell today are the same folks who were praising him the other day when he resigned and Condi nominated.
They have no core, no gravitas--they all just shriek at us every day. Look at the brouhaha your nuke article caused. Not an answer re: fp/nuke-game theory, just a load of bull. mike
PS CNN reporting now 10 arrested in seattle on terror charges. Listening to TV while typing.

Some Pakistani will tell you that its a darn good thing they developed nuclear weapons, or India would be invading them.

Funny, the US never threatened to invade Pakistan, either.

Apparently my point is lost on you all - when pushed to the corner, who can be at all surprised that such states want to arm themselves. The US has proven that it only invades states that are *not* nuclear armed.
