ISLAMABAD—The Taliban has no affairs to advance Pakistan’s nuclear arsenal, its agent declared, as the militants kept up their advance to avenge Osama bin Laden’s death, ramming a auto barter burdened with explosives into a badge abject and killing six people.

A beyond advance beforehand this anniversary by the Pakistan Taliban on a argosy abject renewed fears that Pakistan’s ample nuclear armory could be vulnerable. The Taliban’s spokesman, Ehsanullah Ehsan, absolved those apropos Wednesday as America’s “excuse” to burden Pakistan’s government into angry the Taliban, who he portrayed as the country’s accurate protectors.

“Pakistan is the alone Muslim nuclear-power state,” Mr. Ehsan said in a blast interview, abacus that the Taliban had no ambition of alteration that fact. The Taliban, afterwards all, aim to booty over Pakistan and its weapons.

He again mocked Pakistan’s alertness to assignment with the U.S., saying, “isn’t it a abashment for us to accept the Islamic bomb, and alike again we are accedence bottomward to the pressures of America?”
While the atrocity of the Pakistan Taliban has alienated them from best Pakistanis, Mr. Ehsan’s anti-American sentiments are aggregate by abounding bodies here.

The long-questioned accord with the U.S. has appear beneath added analysis afterward the arrest this ages that dead bin Laden. The U.S. arrest was apparent by best actuality as a abuse of civic ascendancy by an adulterine ally.

Mr. Ehsan’s animadversion appeared tailored to address to that added nationalist mainstream, area cabal theories curl about American, Indian and Israeli plots to bankrupt Pakistan of its diminutive arsenal. Pakistan’s nuclear adequacy is admired actuality as the angel of assurance from India’s far beyond accepted military.

The Pakistan Taliban, an adjunct of the Afghan anarchical movement, accept again approved to win accessible abutment by presenting themselves as a apostle of Pakistan, admitting their attacks accept dead bags of Pakistanis. Afterward the 2008 alarm attacks in Mumbai by Pakistani militants and the consistent fasten in tensions with archrival India, the Taliban offered to action alongside Pakistan’s army in the accident of war.

Still, it was absurd to adjudicator the artlessness of Mr. Ehsan’s acknowledgment apropos Pakistan’s nuclear arsenal. Alike if the Pakistan Taliban has no designs on the arms, there are countless Islamist groups in Pakistan, including al Qaeda, that are believed to accept absorption in accepting nuclear weapons.

Pakistan says its nuclear arsenal, which is believed to accommodate about 100 warheads, is safe. Admiral say accessories that abundance the weapons are able-bodied guarded, and that accurate checks awning out political and religious extremists from the nuclear program.

But U.S. and added Western admiral accept aloft doubts about those guarantees in allotment because they accept little afterimage into Pakistan’s nuclear program. Their admission is bound by the military, which fears both allies and enemies ultimately aim to booty the weapons away.

One of army arch Gen. Ashfaq Kayani’s aboriginal thoughts aloft audition a helicopter had comatose the night bin Burdened was dead was that Pakistan’s nuclear armory was beneath attack, according to bodies accustomed with his thinking. The helicopter angry out to be one of the U.S. choppers complex in the raid.

Adding to apropos about Pakistan’s nuclear affairs is the Taliban’s accurate adeptness to access high-security areas, such as the argosy air abject it attacked Sunday in the Arabian Sea anchorage of Karachi, the country better city. A abject autumn diminutive weapons is about 15 afar (24 kilometers) from the air station.

It took hundreds of fleet commandos and marines and paramilitary soldiers added than 15 hours to bright the fleet abject in Karachi. Ten bodies were dead and a brace of American fabricated amphibian surveillance and anti-submarine aircraft, anniversary priced at $36 million, were destroyed.

The fleet said Wednesday the base’s administrator had been relieved.

Wednesday’s attack, the fourth back bin Laden’s death, collapsed a badge abject in the northwestern burghal of Peshawar. The abject is acclimated in allotment to catechize militants, admitting none were central at the time, said badge arch Liaquat Ali Khan.

The auto barter acclimated in the advance was accustomed at atomic 660 pounds (300 kilograms) of explosives, said Bashir Bilour, a chief official in the arena area Peshawar is located, according to the Associated Press.

Mr. Ehsan, the Taliban spokesman, said the advance was a “continuation of our contempo attacks to avenge the killing of Osama bin Laden.”

Well I would rather focus on protecting the Complex with appropriate FORCE then worry about Talibans public relations
 
.
Wow thats great, because the sort of incompetence our leadership has shown, only their decision to not attack will save our arsenal...all joking aside, we have let this rag tag bunch turn into an organization...its time to stop with the excuses and take these extremist out, because if we dont, we will slowly loose our country to these people....because unfortunately, we have very few educated moderates and millions of impressionable illiterate youth that are easy to sway by providing them the most simple of rewards.
