#4 GPS? 21st century technology? Isn't this some kind of smear against Islam? Can't they figure out a way to do this involving sundials, camel shit and quotes from the Koran?

#5 My first thought was that they were going to use the satellite like the African tribe that IBM gave modems to... they used them to crush nuts on a rock - and they praised the modems for their durability. I just figg'ed the PakiGhans would smash the satellite to smithereens and leave a trail of nuts & bolts & circuit boards & solar panels along the border.
