You sold what to who?

If I were to tell you that there was an Islamic country led by a military general who overthrew the democratically elected government; and that this country had developed nuclear weapons despite many of its people living in abject poverty, and that the same country admitted to buying many of its nuclear secrets from North Korea and Libya; and that this country had recently launched conventional attacks on its neighbour over a disputed territory, you may think that George Bush would have his warmongering eyes on them. Or at least that he’d be issuing strong threats that the country had better stay in line. But, and it’s the darnedest thing, he’s actually decided to sell Pakistan a load of F-16s.

You make sense of it. I can’t.
