The Taliban Threat to Pakistan

Telegraph: Reports on the latest bombings in Pakistan, the Taliban is countering the Army of Pakistan’s push in to the Swat Valley. As the Taliban/Terrorists are not a real army they can only strike back by using terrorists methods, thus Pakistan can expect more bombings, the more success the Army has in the Swat Valley and in the Tribal badlands the more the Taliban will strike at non military targets, thus Islamabad should be on alert, also the Army should make sure all nuclear facilities are under tight guard. Also all personnel that are guarding nuclear facilities should be checked to see if they have Taliban friends or are sympathetic to the cause. The secular Government of Pakistan can not afford for the Taliban/Terrorists to get hold of nuclear weapons. After defeating the Taliban, the Army of Pakistan has to win the hearts and minds of the people of Swat and the Tribal areas, in this the West should support this move with dollars, its cheaper that Pakistan under the Taliban.
