ISLAMABAD, Pakistan — Islamic militants known as the Pakistani Taliban have extended their reach across all seven of Pakistan's frontier tribal regions and have infiltrated Peshawar, the provincial capital, heightening U.S. concerns that an insurrection may be broadening in the nuclear-armed nation.
Well, that should comfort you.
Pakistani Taliban leader Baitullah Mehsud, who is the government’s prime suspect in the killing of Benazir Bhutto, says that the Pak army is illegally invading tribal areas and treating the people unjustly, so the Taliban had to organize. He also says that it’s not the Taliban who have used nukes, and people would be better advised to worry about nukes in the hands of people who have proven their willingness to use them. Or words to that effect.
....but hey, do what you want....you will anyway.
