Sure, we just walk in and throw them on the truck and drive back to Arizona, its easy peasy. Everyone should know by now that the USA is in charge of the world, the rest of the countries are just little children that must be coddled and not allowed to make any decisions.

Modern day America, a place where willful ignorance is embraced like a cloak of infallibility and complete madness rules the day.

India has some too..

I believe Pakistan is aiming their nukes at India I believe..

To find out more http://www.nuclearfiles.org/menu/key-issues/nuclear-weapons/history/post-cold-war/india-pakistan/index.htm

The NuclearFiles.org has the history of efforts.

Have a read and perhaps share after.
good links, thanks.

heres what ive got so far:

Bhutto had the nuclear weapons dismantled. they were in pieces, which could be put together(not very quickly), and used as a bomb. heres a link to what i just read
http://www.nuclearfiles.org/menu/key-issues/nuclear-weapons/history/post-cold-war/india-pakistan/background_information/pakistan_nuclear_weapons.htm

then this link says this:

The location of Pakistan's nuclear weapons stockpile cannot be determined from open sources. Pakistan is believed to somewhere between two and three dozen nuclear weapons. Reportedly, most of these weapons are stockpiled as separate uranium and plutonium cores and detonation assemblies, rather than fully assembled weapons. The storage procedures were altered in early October 2001, when the American bombing of Afghanistan began. The stockpile was reportedly dispersed to six new secret locations around Pakistan. The new stockpile procedures were intended to facilitate the rapid assembly and deployment of the weapons.
why would they make it easier and faster to blow stuff up, immediately after we go to war with Afghanistan? did we have something to do with that decision, since we were at war with their neighbor? if so, what is the advantage for us? why would we need Pakistan to be able to do that? did we assist them in doing that, in exchange for assistance in Afghanistan? Pakistan seems to be using the war as a way to force us to help them. meanwhile, bin laden is sitting in a house in abbottabad

this is all just what i gather from reading this. just rambling...

sounds like a purely defensive strategy.
A sort of mess with us and we will get you.

It's a Islamic nation. Is this an Islamic nuclear position?

just got done reading this. a big problem is Kashmir. both sides want it for themselves. the link said its a primarily muslim community. so when the resolution was put forward to have the Kashmir people vote on the issue, India squashed it, and it never happened. India believed that if it went to vote, they would vote for Kashmir to become part of Pakistan. also China is interested in the northeastern portion of Kashmir according to the wiki page i just looked through

since India is such a technological ally to us, it would be hard to tell Pakistan to stop their nuclear weapons program. they will say "but India will have their nuclear weapons, and we will be defenseless. plus the US is an ally with India, so we do not trust the US". so, in order to get rid of nukes in Pakistan, im pretty sure Indian nukes would have to go as well. thats a whole 'nother bucket of worms haha

Raids on Libyan weapons depots reported

In an eye for an eye Gaddafi's weapons depot destroyed after the attack on the fuel depot.

Accounts of Nato strike in Zintan and explosions in Tripoli follow "government attacks on fuel depots" in Misurata.





Tunisia has told Libya that it considers shelling near the Wazen-Dhehiba border post as 'extremely dangerous' [EPA] NATO air attacks have hit Libyan government weapons depots near Zintan, southwest of Tripoli, the capital, according to a rebel spokesman in the town.
Separately, two loud explosions rocked a western sector of Tripoli on Sunday as jets flew overhead, witnesses told the AFP news agency.
An international coalition began carrying out attacks on forces loyal to Muammar Gaddafi, Libya's long-time ruler, on March 19, under a UN mandate to protect civilians in the country. NATO took command of operations over Libya on March 31.
"NATO struck weapons depots five minutes ago in an area which lies about 30km southeast of Zintan," Abdulrahman, the rebel spokesman, told the Reuters news agency by telephone on Sunday.
"We heard a loud explosion ... I think the strike hit some of them [the depots].
"We are now at a cemetery burying 11 people martyred during yesterday's fighting, in which 35 other fighters were also wounded."

The reported air raids came a week after the Libyan goverment said that Gaddafi's son, Seif al-Arab Gaddafi, and three of his grandchildren were killed in a NATO air strike on a compound in Tripoli. The Tripoli-based government said that the attack was a bid to assassinate the Libyan leader, a claim NATO denies.

Meanwhile, rebels in the Libyan city of Misurata have been engaged in intense fighting with government forces near the airport, a rebel spokesman told the Reuters news agency.

"Fierce fighting is taking place now at the airport and in the air force college area [near the airport]. We are still hearing sounds of artillery and rockets," the spokesman, called Abdelsalam, said from Misurata.

"NATO struck an area in the east of Misurata today but we do not have details," he said.
Misurata is the last remaining city in the west under rebel control.
It has been under siege for more than two months and has been the scene of some of the war's fiercest fighting between the rebels and Gaddafi loyalists.

Al Jazeera's Hoda Abdel-Hamid, reporting from Benghazi, said Libya "is showing that it is ready for any kind of foreign aggression ... they know that it is extremely important to keep the momentum in what appears now to be a very long and protracted conflict."
Tunisian complaint
In another development on Sunday, Tunisia warned that the repeated shelling from Libya of one of its border towns may force it to take measures to protect its sovereignty.
The country's official TAP news agency said that about 80 shells from Libya have fallen on Tunisian territory.
There were no reported injuries after the shells fell as Libyan troops fought with rebels to regain control of the Wazen-Dhehiba border post.
Click here for more of Al Jazeera's special coverage TAP quoted the Tunisian foreign ministry as warning that the country would take "all measures needed" within the law to ensure protection of its citizens, refugees and its territory.
Tunisia summoned Libya's ambassador on April 29 to complain after shells fell in inhabited areas.
It now says Libya is not keeping to its commitments.
On Saturday, a rebel spokesman in the contested city of Misurata said that Gaddafi's forces dropped bombs on four large oil-storage tanks, destroying them and sparking a fire that spread to four more.
Government forces used small, pesticide-spraying planes for the overnight attack in Qasr Ahmed close to the port, Ahmed Hassan, the spokesman, said.

Hassan said the rebels notified NATO about the aircraft before the attack but there was no response.
"Four tanks were totally destroyed and huge fire erupted which spread now to the other four. We cannot extinguish it because we do not have the right tools," he said.
"Now the city will face a major problem. Those were the only source of fuel for the city. These tanks could have kept the city for three months with enough fuel."
