Drone/missile attack in Pakistan
Another US missile attack in S. Waziristan kills at least 27.
(Now we'll see if Dianne Feinstein's little slip has legs.)
The accounts of Saturday's incident could not be verified independently. The tribally governed region is unsafe for reporters. The U.S. Embassy had no comment, while Pakistani government and army spokesman were unavailable.

You mean there might be a backlash? What are they going to do....demonstrate in the street? Blow a few of their own people up?

Well, it could endanger the government of Zardari. It could be a different relationship.

Zardari doesn't seem to have much organized opposition. I assume the military has been paid off. I guess the security people could bump him off at some point.

Yeah, military or Sharif, but there's also the possibility that the government just increasingly weakens, losing their ability to control much of anything.

If the well-known substance does hit the fan I imagine the US has a plan to 'secure' the nukes.

That was the rumor before the Pak election.

My guess is such a plan is being well rehearsed. Probably some people can't wait to get started. Maybe to coincide with Israel's attack on Iran?
