Yup, Pakistan was already controlled by the nuts. This is probably one of those times when having a military coup was a good thing. They were heading to war with India when Musharraf and the military stepped in and took over the government. The hole people are still there, and they are in most other aspects of the government. The scary thing is, when Musharraf buys it, things are going to go downhill fast. > Well, I guess what you call the nuts, let's coin the phrase (from > your earlier post) the hole-folks.

In PK's case, the hole people are ones push the high tech, nuclear upgrade. > But I am not saying Pakistan will stop messing with India, NK will > stop threatening KR/JP.

An opening wave of nukes and other nasty stuff, followed up by a long drawn out trench warfare kind of deal that eventually peters off into a stalemate. -- Linwood Foster, [EMAIL PROTECTED] Moderator 3 of 6, Rec.Games.Mecha Moderation Team 10th Lyran Guards, The Revenants. http://www.geocities.com/the_devillin -------------------------------------------------- The Gundam Mailing List MK-II [email protected] Archives: http://www.gundam.com/gml Help: Email [EMAIL PROTECTED] with this in the BODY: help list
