Pakistan's 4 Dark Corners

Pakistan's 4 dark corners grew from drugs, greed, and the lust for power.

1. Afghanistan's heroin exports are nearly free to cross Pakistan's borders. Afghanistan's heroin production has increased a thousand-fold since Bush invaded. Drugs from Afghanistan finance Pakistan's black economy.

2. Pakistan's military has a vested interest in the drug route as well as keeping Ben Laden alive: US money is nearly unlimited for the Pakistani military as long as Ben Laden is on the loose.

3. The Pakistani establishment shares the same vested interest in Ben Laden's freedom as does the Pakistani government.

4. Both the military and Pakistani government feed upon and manipulate the Pakistani population.

Smack dab in the middle of these 4 corners stands a nuclear stockpile that the Taliban and/or Ben Laden stand to inherit from the corrupting influences of the military and established government. Poverty and corruption breed fundamentalist terrorists.
