Column: by Jawed Naqvi (DAWN), gives Alternative Perspective on Possessing Nukes...


I think Jawed Naqvi belongs to an apologist school of thought that presents an alternative perspective on possessing NUKES, in a sense of discouraging them. Just like Pervaiz Hoodbouy, who believes Nukes made us more vulnerable than ever... It is a worth reading, esp. when it cites some near-catastrophic incidents pertaining to developed nations. And when technological giants like US is not immune to this technology glitch than a nation like Pak. or Ind. has a long way to go...
Although I believe, situation in which Pakistan was pushed to the wall, it became necessary to possess such "WMD" but once we own them, we should be fully aware of 'Alternative Perspective'...
