U.S. military poised to secure Pakistani nukes if Pakistan falls to jihadists

The Obama Administration seems to be playing a double game of its own: reaching out to jihadists in Iran and Afghanistan, while being ready to stop them in Pakistan. "Does Pakistan's Taliban Surge Raise a Nuclear Threat?,"
