Pakistan, Feb. 10 (UPI) -- Pakistani President Pervez Musharraf says he suspected the country's nuclear secrets were being leaked, but the United States didn't have convincing proof.
In an interview with the New York Times, Musharraf shared blame for the delay with Washington, saying it was not until October that U.S. officials provided evidence of the activities of the scientist, Abdul Qadeer Khan.
At the same time, Musharraf said he had seen signs Khan was sharing nuclear technology, including "illegal contacts, maybe suspicions of contacts," and "suspicious movement" connected to Khan's laboratory.
But he said he was concerned investigating Khan, a national hero for his role in developing its nuclear weapons, could provoke a political backlash. article
So, rather than act on what he suspects - a very "dangerous" situation - he waits for his puppet masters to tell him it's okay to act.
We haven't pre-empted Pakistan's nuclear program because the president is our monkey boy.
Gee, that's unusual, isn't it?
....but hey, do what you want....you will anyway.
