MANILA, April 21 (Online): Pakistan President Pervez Musharraf said on Wednesday he would never allow foreign inspectors into the country to examine its nuclear facilities.

"That is tantamount to admitting that we cannot be trusted in our own house," he told a breakfast meeting of the Foreign Correspondents Association of the Philippines, reports AFP news agency.

Asked whether he would allow inspectors from the United Nation's International Atomic Energy Agency (IAEA) to inspect the country's nuclear facilities, Musharraf said: "Why?".

"Our nuclear programme is for the protection of the people of Pakistan," he said.

"You have to understand that this is a very sensitive issue for us.

"And our people are sensitive to outsiders coming into our country asking questions. It's as though we cannot be trusted," he said.

That's ok.
Pakistan is not part of the axis of evil, and they're not an outpost of tyranny.
Unlike you know who.

So you are saying we should be more concerned about countries that are more willing to try to destroy us?

OK, I agree.

No.
I'm saying we should be more concerned about whatever country our gummint tells us to be concerned about.
They got darned good intelligence, you know?

Are you assuming that your government would care what the IAEA had to say, anyway?
I'm not sure where you'd get that idea, particularly from recent history....

They do care what the IAEA has to say.
As long as it supports bombing Iran.

We ALL KNOW Pakistan would never develop nuclear wheapons...I remember hearing a while back that they were working on them....which proves the opposite must be true.
