The three unsubstantiated points one instantly realizes in the article are: Pakistan being Israel's enemy, Pakistan's nuclear arsenal being under American supervision and Bush going on to deal with Saudi Arabia and Pakistan after Iraq. Such claims can hardly be supported by factual information.

Pakistan has never claimed to be Israel's enemy. Infact, it has always claimed that Israel should have no worries in this regard. Nowadays, there are contacts being initiated behind the scenes.

Pakistan's nuclear arsenal is securely under control of its Nuclear Command. The US had proposed placing its safeguards but such proposals were outrightly rejected.

Bush would deal with Saudi Arabia and Pakistan after Iraq? Hardly so. He has his hands full with Iran and North Korea at the moment. Even after those two are dealth with, it seems highly unlikely since the Sauds are his best buddies while Pakistan's case is too complicated to be either in the black or white.
