"I'm confident that we can make sure that Pakistan's nuclear arsenal is secure," Mr. Obama said Wednesday, "primarily, initially, because the Pakistani Army, I think, recognizes the hazards of those weapons falling into the wrong hands."
The Obama administration inherited from President Bush a multiyear, $100 million secret American program to help Pakistan build stronger physical protections around some of those facilities, and to train Pakistanis in nuclear security.
But much of that effort has now petered out, and American officials have never been permitted to see how much of the money was spent, the facilities where the weapons are kept or even a tally of how many Pakistan has produced. The facility Pakistan was supposed to build to conduct its own training exercises is running years behind schedule.

The ideal moderate Turkish Democracy hates the US more than any other nation?
Wow.
That tells you something about Turkish Democracy, doesn't it?
As I have said before, voting does not a Democracy make.
A Democracy is a Republic of free individuals, whose human rights are firmly established and protected by a Constitution.
They all hate us, it's just a question of whether it's 2 out of 3 or 7 out of 8.
But not to worry, the Pakistani army is safe.
Barack will explain how nice we are, NOW.
