Pakistan is a nuclear power nowadays. Worrying, since they're so close
to Europe. Fallout from a fullscale Pakistan-India blowout (that'd be
10 nukes each, or something on that order, I imagine) would be enough
to cause major damage here. More so in Turkey.

And economic instability is _not_ the way to ensure it goes the other
way.
