India: Pakistan's nukes "already partly" in the hands of jihadis
If not already, definitely soon enough. "India thinks Pak N-sites already in radical hands: Report," from the Times of India, May 16 (thanks to Jeffrey Imm):

WASHINGTON: India's Prime Minister Manmohan Singh has told President Obama that nuclear sites in Pakistan's restive frontier province are "already partly" in the hands of Islamic extremists, an Israeli journal has said, amid considerable anxiety among US pundits here over Washington's confidence in the security of the troubled nation's nuclear arsenal.

Claims about the high-level exchange between New Delhi and Washington were made in the Debka, a journal said to have close ties with Israeli intelligence, under the headline "Singh warns Obama: Pakistan is lost." The brief story said the Indian prime minister had named Pakistani nuclear sites in the areas which were Taliban-Qaida strongholds and said the sites are already partly in the hands of "Muslim extremists." A sub-head to the story said "India gets ready for a Taliban-ruled nuclear neighbor."

There was no official word from either Washington or New Delhi about the exchanges, with India in the throes of an election and US winding down for the weekend. But US experts have been greatly perturbed in recent days about what they say is Washington's misplaced confidence in, and lackadaisical approach towards, Pakistan's nuclear assets. The disquiet comes amid reports that Pakistan is ramping up its nuclear arsenal even as the rest of the world is scaling it down.

"It is quite disturbing that the administration is allowing Pakistan to quantitatively and qualitatively step up production of fissile material without as much as a public reproach," Robert Windrem, a visiting scholar with the Center for Law and Security in New York University and an expert on South Asia nuclear issues told ToI in an interview on Thursday. "Iraq and Iran did not get a similar concessions... and Pakistan has a much worse record of proliferation and security breaches than any other country in the world."...

Hey, I'm sure that if BHO treats them with respect and love and...especially, bows to them, they won't hurt anyone.  They are just misunderstood and everyone knows...we're the reason they are having to take a stand............

I just hope when they light up a city or two of ours it's not around me.

This is where a nuclear "accident" would come in handy.  The proverbial two birds with one stone.

Pakistani Intelligence Service, the ISI created the Taliban, and is heavily involved in not only the "jihadist movement" but ALL the drug and weapons smuggling in the region.
