from NY Times 1 Mar 2004 For 2 Ex-Generals, a Common Language
There are also charges that President Musharraf is allowing American forces based in Afghanistan to operate in Pakistan, a charge repeated by the journalist Seymour Hersh in the current issue of The New Yorker magazine. But Pakistani and American officials deny it, saying that any such activity would provoke outrage throughout Pakistan.
Washington's other priority is to learn as much as possible about the activities of Abdul Qadeer Khan, the Pakistani scientist who admitted sharing nuclear technology with Iran and North Korea.
Pakistan's cooperation on those matters is so great, American officials say, that they have had no choice but to avoid criticizing Pakistan for pardoning Dr. Khan. Some officials acknowledged that another country might have been excoriated if it had given a slap on the wrist to such a figure.

So who should be on the Axis of Evil list? Countries that buy on the market - or the country that promotes nuclear proliferation? Depends on what your political agenda is.
