" Now can we understand why no more nations should have nuclear weapons? So what if Pakistan does fall to the Taliban or the loosely confederate groups that Pakistan is facing? "We cannot underscore [enough] the seriousness of the existential threat posed to the state of Pakistan by the continuing advances, now within hours of Islamabad, that are being made by a loosely-confederated group of terrorists and others who are seeking the overthrow of the Pakistani state, which as we all know is a nuclear-armed state," she said." Even a progressive such as Clinton sees the danger that could occur. This is pretty strong talk, and very similar talk about another country several years ago.
