Osama Bin Laden lived one mile from the Pakistani military academy, and appears to have been supported by the ISI, their intelligence service. It's a tremendous assumption of faith that Pakistani nuclear warheads are somehow safe.

Respectfully speaking, that sounds an awful lot like someone's last words in the accident investigation, right before "always" suddenly isn't.

The truth is, in a lot of ways, those bombs are Pakistan's bombs, but they're also China's bombs, balancing out the Israel-India axis.

What guarantee do we have that it "always will be?"

Nukes thus far have only been used by secular on secular.

Is the US really considered a secular nation? I mean _actually_ secular?

Leaving that aside, Japan was not (even in the formal, substantively debatable, sense that the US was and is) a secular regime. State Shintō was an integral part of the system.

Which is why the United States trusted them to extract and hand over Bin Laden from within their own borders. Oh wait...
