Great News - Nuclear Armed Islamic Country With Notoriously Unreliable Safeguards Now Going Bankrupt

Luckily there's no record of Pakistan ever participating in a nuclear black market. Otherwise this would be cause for genuine concern:
The government is urgently seeking $10 billion from its diaspora to avoid defaulting on its debts that are dragging the country towards insolvency. Pakistan's newly-appointed financial chief, Shaukat Tareen, who is in Washington on a mission to persuade international groups to stump up billions of dollars to bolster Pakistan's fast depleting foreign reserves, has said that a fund will be set up for expatriate investors to buy stocks... Pakistan is facing multiple crises as the country's security forces battle pro-Taliban militants in the tribal areas near the Afghan border and its financial indicators have plummeted.
Here's an article from a few weeks ago titled "The 'Talibanization' of Pakistan's biggest city". Happy Tuesday.
