” Curtis week nights from 10 PM to one Leo. And Hillary Rodham Clinton us secretary of state finished till one woman blitz. Of Pakistan. And she was set taking on all comers. He challenged Pakistan to defend its territory from the onslaught of the religious extremists. And SY Pakistan’s powerful military was unable to find. Osama bin Laden. On the line to discuss the trip of the sectarian distract state KT McFarland. A pentagon official under president Reagan thanks for joining us again — Recruit her — seems a second area of state. Earned a lot of credit. For the nerve in which he approached. Confronting the pakistanis. Do you think this was a successful strategy.”

” Yeah I do it I think it was pretty gets C Everett it’s about time somebody said. Can’t talk straight to Pakistan. — for the first time that Pakistan has the leader in the Kerry who’s willing to take the fight to the Taliban. Musharraf would talk a good game but it’s really pay both sides. He would tell us he was going after the Taliban had any never really get it. It’s to carry it — take in the place that is best troops. On to the Afghan Pakistan border he’s gone into the Swat Valley cleaned it out he is now in South Waziristan. Meeting great resistance but because he’s — and 30000 troops center crack troops that are doing pretty well presumably they’ve ever been to North Waziristan. And clean up the Taliban I think what’s happened. And the difference is that the Pakistani leadership on this because the Terry’s wife Benazir Bhutto was assassinated by the Taliban. And they leadership of Pakistan air realizes. That they are greater greater — is back from India but it’s from what can at a Taliban that seeks to destabilize its government. And it’s closely allied with al-Qaeda. Which is now in Pakistan. And al-Qaeda wants to cancel Pakistan’s nukes.”

” Not KT McFarland. I focus a lot. On the news that comes directly from Pakistan by Pakistan any media and he will we broadcast from New York a mother ship station WABC to the rest of the country there are many Pakistani cab drivers many Pakistani owned businesses. And had them translate some of the the reports that com.”

” Yeah — you’re getting breaking news.”

” Yeah but it’s disturbing and I tell you why. Many of these pakistanis. Look from wealthy and affluent and middle class families have calm to the west for their education there. And yet as highly educated as some of them off. If you read to Pakistan any publications they believe these crazy theory they claims in our country is secretly back. Acting the Islamic extremists. In order to destabilize Pakistan’s have been watching team concedes. Pakistan’s nuclear weapons like we don’t have enough Ferraro.”

” Right any other tickets that — is based bank — September 11 was an American plot. To give them an exhibit — American excuse certain date Muslim country.”

” And now that — that they you still like our president Barack Obama. They are slowly souring on him. So all of a sudden the guy that he’s you know he’s gonna change are the relations between. Pakistan he still would disenfranchised from their political process. And the United States now increasingly. You see the rhetoric is ratcheting up against him because he’s our president.”

” because it’s that we got a real problem with Pakistan and I think its assets after the national security nightmare — keeps me up but I I think it’s even more dangerous. And Afghanistan and can at any of the ambulances because Pakistan has the nuclear arsenal Pakistan is not as strong leadership to countries not. Strongly glad it’s the president Pakistan’s not a popular guy and they having major. Let’s let’s starting to look like a civil war their own country with Islamic extremists try to get their hands on nuclear weapons. Ever in the awkward position with Pakistan. Because if we help too much like is that it feeds that paranoia that America is just trying to take ever Pakistan but we don’t help but not. I think it’s likely that the Taliban will continue to make inroads.”

” Now KT McFarland very quickly do you think that our Defense Department our administration has a fall back plan. If things go south in Pakistan if the government begins to crumble the military loses its resolve. — we have away. Defending that nuclear weapons stockpile they have from falling into al-Qaeda or the — nonsense I.”

” I hope we do but I doubt we do. That’s afraid — There’s you know one of the reasons it was such a problem with that the Pakistan to kept its nuclear weapons in the Swat Valley. And so when the Taliban took over the Swat Valley. Pakistan’s nuclear arsenal was your risk they have Ramallah chairman of the joint chiefs.”

” Has said that they’re confident. That’s the eight nuclear arsenal has since safe hands that. You know the government — safe hands of the government falters infiltrated. To — greater extent by the Taliban I think that nuclear size — risk.”

” Do you think give it ever came to that point the because we probably would know exactly when that arsenal is we would just destroy it.”

” I don’t know if I’m not sure how we — we could I think it’s dispersed.”

” It’s not is that it’s you know one parking lot — a lot of nuclear weapons there it’s dispersed throughout the country. And and — the plan I hope there is a plan to get out of there is that if there is Curtis.”

” I sure hope nobody’s talking about it because that’s.”

” The last thing in the world. We wanted specific — for the Taliban over the extreme of what we speculative interest.”

” So the pakistanis gave props up to Hillary and this in dismiss Barack Obama who used to be the hero. Boy how quickly dale loyalties changed. Listen to Curtis nights from ten GM to what — else — 69 WTKK.”
