Musharraf insists nukes are safe

Pervez... it might've been a little more reassuring... if you hadn't chose to start your speech with that tidbit...

Mr Musharraf said that he was "not concerned" about political turmoil at home following the assassination of Benazir Bhutto last month, and insisted his country was stable.

"I can assure you that nothing will happen in Pakistan," he said. "We are not a banana republic."

Uh-huh... somebody better mention that factoid to Stephane Dion.
