Bloodless Coup

The Damage Inflicted by A.Q. Khan

This article in The New York Times reminds us that when it comes to spreading WMD Iraq had nothing on our close friend and ally, Pakistan. We still don't know how deep the damage is - and we are getting little help on that matter from our close friend and ally, Pakistan. And of course our ability to figure these things out is hampered by the administration's current goal of replacing the head of the IAEA (he had the audacity to disagree with Bush's assessment of the Iraqi threat - a be right). That's the Bush team for you - prioritizing staying on message and loyalty above everything else, even if it gets in the way of effectively protecting the United States.
