The Lord's our Shepherd, part (N+1)...

This hasn't hit the English-language press yet anywhere that I can see, but for those interested here's a link to an article in Ha'aretz: Mohammed el-Baradei, the head of the Int'l Atomic Energy Agency, now says that Pakistan has transferred detailed nuclear knowledge to at least 20 "countries and corporations".

I'm assuming this count includes North Korea, Iran and Libya; he says that he knows of no other country in the Middle East to which he gave this information, so the locations of the other 17 or so targets are left as exercises for the rather alarmed reader.

Of course, given that A. Q. Khan (the head of Pak's nuclear program) was printing out four-color glossy brochures with his picture on them advertising nuclear capability, I suppose this shouldn't be too much of a surprise...
