Libya confirms buying 'A-bomb' plan from Pak
Sunday, 04 January , 2004, 22:28

London: Pakistan scientists have sold plans to make a nuclear bomb to Libya for "millions of pounds", Saif al-Islam, son of Libyan leader Colonel Muammar Gadaffi has confirmed.
In an interview to the "Sunday Times", Saif stated that Libya had bought nuclear components from a variety of black market dealers. "We dealt with an underground network of middle men and secret workshops". Some Arab sources, quoted in the Times, said some of the components for the Libyan nuclear programme were bought in Dubai and shipped to Libya.

warp-drive components for interstellar one-man spacecraft though... i have so many of those half-finished in my basement.

6. We have a choice
between siding with our current "allies" like France or with our traditional allies like Saudi Arabia, Pakistan and Uzbekistan. Which will it be?

4. So when are we going to invade Pakistan?
They have done more to export WMDs and support terrorists than Saddam ever did?

9. This is good news, we have access and info.
We need no more nukes in that area, any more than we need the ones that are there already. Sounds good to me.
