To call Pakistan unstable is fact not propoganda, its borderline civil war in that country. As far as fears of a war with the USA thats being blown way out of proportion. The US Army is in terrible need of a refit wich isnt even in the works until it winds down Iraq and Afghanistan, add a few more years after that. The USA is a long way from looking for another war.

I really hope your right, im SICK of all these wars. I suppose if the USA declared some sort of military action on Pakistan we (the uk) would have to hop aboard and do what our gang leader tells us to do. The thing is, what effect would this have on the people of the UK, practically every fifth person (guessing) in the UK is pakistani, i have pakastani friends, i know tons of pakastani people, it could be bad.
i reckon china would kick america's ass if it came to that

Pakistan is on the border with China and India. Sounds like an opening to the next world war. Does China really want the US military on their back yard....I don't think so...

Many observers have been stating for several years that America's drone attacks are creating another fighting force within Pakistan, giving support to the Taliban, and risks swaying power in the country in support of anti-American sentiment.
