Tinfoil Apocalypse Watch: A.Q. Khan Edition

clipped from blog.beliefnet.com It is true that Osama bin Laden is the most wanted terrorist alive. But someday, a terrorist attack will occur that will make OBL's lifetime achievements pale in comparison, because it will use a nuclear weapon. When thta day comes, it will be directly attributable to one man: Abdul Qadeer Khan, the father of Pakistan's nuclear bomb and the leader of a clandestine network that sold nuclear secrets to other nations that sponsor, support and/or harbor terroist groups. It is this man, AQ Khan, who was released by Pakistan from house arrest yesterday. A court in Pakistan has ended the house arrest of Abdul Qadeer Khan, a scientist who admitted selling nuclear secrets to Iran, North Korea and Libya. I don't know how this man can sleep at night, knowing what he has unleashed. Then again, his statement about being "proud" for what he did - not for Pakistan, but in the long run, to Pakistan, suggests that for all his technical brilliance, he is a very stupid man indeed.
