WASHINGTON, Aug. 12 (UPI) -- Pakistan’s nuclear weapons installations have been attacked by Islamist extremists and foiled three times in less than two years, according to reliable intelligence reports. The details.

WASHINGTON, July 14 (UPI) -- An adviser on South Asia to three U.S. presidents warns about the threat of a jihadist victory in Pakistan “as a real possibility in the foreseeable future.” It would also give terrorists a nuclear capability.

WASHINGTON, June 5 (UPI) -- President’s Obama’s historic speech dazzled most of the world, but soaring rhetoric is quickly forgotten in the cold light of intractable problems and a modest strategic agenda.

WASHINGTON, May 18 (UPI) -- Pakistan, not Afghanistan, is now considered the most dangerous place on earth. Restoring what was once a thriving alliance between the United States and Pakistan requires mutual trust, still sadly lacking. PAKAF now displaces AFPAK.

ISLAMABAD, Pakistan, Dec. 8 (UPI) -- A former member of the Pakistani Inter-Services Intelligence served as a weapons consultant for al-Qaida chief Osama bin Laden, a secret report reveals.

WASHINGTON, March 17 (UPI) -- Washington's Pakistan kibitzers will soon rue the day they squeezed President Pervez Musharraf to restore democracy. "Demonocracy" is what has now emerged, or an unholy alliance of longtime America-haters, including the Muttahida Majlis-e-Amal coalition of six politico-religious extremist parties that lost the Feb. 18 elections, plus a gaggle of former generals and admirals against Musharraf, and friends and admirers of A.Q. Khan, the man who ran a nuclear Wal-Mart for the benefit of America's enemies (North Korea and Iran).

WASHINGTON, Dec. 27 (UPI) -- Suspects in the assassination of Pakistan's Benazir Bhutto number in the tens of thousands.

No sooner did Benazir Bhutto narrowly escape a two-man suicide bombing attack than she faced the next death threat of many more to come. Like paparazzi chasing down a celebrity, would-be assassins will be dogging her every step as she leads her Pakistan People’s Party in the coming election campaign to reclaim Pakistan’s prime ministership, from which she was deposed in 1990 and again in 1996.

WASHINGTON, Sept. 14 (UPI) -- Some 80,000 Pakistani soldiers who man the non-existent border between the Federally Administered Tribal Areas and the Afghan border have stood down, but no one knows who gave the order or whether they are even taking orders. Taliban and al-Qaida terrorist training camps are up and running again with the acquiescence -- or impotence -- of the Pakistani army. That’s the word by satellite phone from this reporter’s sources in Miranshah and Wana, the capitals of North and South Waziristan.
