REGARDING Tony Blairs visit to the Military State of Pakistan, one can only guesstomate the sort of political manoeuvring being conducted behind closed doors, probably attempting to reduce Taliban activity within Pakistan's borders, even asking Pervez Musharraf if he could help find Osama Bin Laden!

Considering the abject poverty so evident suffered by the people of Pakistan, one wonders why the wealth of this country is not shared amongst its people? Of course this situation is prevalent in many nations throughout the world including our own. However, with the public announcement from the Prime Minister he intends to double the aid given to Pakistan, surely in reality this is totally unnecessary considering the billions of rupees spent on Pakistan's nuclear arsenal.
