Musharraf wants European nuclear scientists investigated
2004-01-25
Pakistan President Pervez Musharraf said European nuclear scientists should also be investigated, along with the Pakistanis, as they may have sold secrets abroad for "personal gain." But he said he wanted some European countries and scientists investigated as well. He said European countries had the sophisticated metallurgy to produce fissile materials. "There are European countries involved in refining and producing. It is high-class metallurgy. So why is no one talking about it?" he asked.
Good question. We should still keep talking about Qadeer Khan and his boyz, though, even though Perv's trying to change the subject...
While not ruling out Pakistani government involvement in proliferation, he said it was more likely that individuals were involved. He said the country’s nuclear weapons were now under strict government control and that there was no possibility they could be seized by terrorists even if he was killed.
"But then, if they are, I'll already be dead, so it won't matter to me, will it?"

#1  I wouldn't mind looking for involvement of scientists from other countries. Maybe the Hans Blitz's new group can snoop around France, Germany and Russia. That would be good for some laughs.
Somebody should ask Mumar if he arranged for all the folding chairs, toilet paper supplies and descks to disappear from Los Alamos.
