Butho assasination makes it come closer than many think.
When things turn really worse, Musharraff is thrown out of power, UN troops -including lots of US troops will be sent there, to prevent nukes from falling in the hands of AlQaeda.
Not too bad, at least this war will not increase oil prices much. Wars almost always boost the economy.

Clinton found reason for US troops to fight in Somalia.... which first started out as a meals-on-wheels program but then devolved into a brushfire fight...
after a bloody nose...he announced a pull out a week later....

China?Quote from usman88:
Do you seriously think China would allow US in the region? or even russia?
Quote from Paliz:
You are a first class moron.
1) US would never go after pakistan even if Alqaeda does get the nukes. It is a huge country with people who have nothing to lose.
2)No Oil money
3)Iran has oil, so if Bush is going to war....we all know which country he would go after
4)Sickest thing that comes out of people's mouth is " war is good for the economy." You are talking about the lives of human beings, and you are thinking about money.
5)kill yourself

China?
Nah, just make some media noise on lead painted toys, and pressure them to stop devaluating the yuan and they are tamed...
Russia? They also want to sell their arms, so why would they oppose conflict?
