Chuck,
" all sins will be forgiven..."
Not if Pakistan starts testing. Then some of the countries from the former USSR start feeling like maybe they better get some of those suitcase bombs that some people are claiming the Soviets developed in the 80s. And, of course, China may decide that they have show their "strength" to fend off the Indians.

And on and on and on and...

Before my 15 minutes were up, read this on the India thread, that Pakistan will test their own machismo on a site near Iran. So Iran better go out and test theirs too. And of course Iraq, nothing to say there, and then Turkey and then...

Chuck,

that may actually be a pretty shrewed move IMO: First, on the one hand rattling with the sable (sp???), rallying domestic support, and then let some peace doves fly, rallying support from the good-hearted members in the Security Council and/or U.N. and possibly gaining still more support in the process at home as the Father of Peace. I'd see a Nobel Prize on the horizon...
