Blame the digital conversion for stopping service that played a key role during Hurricane Ike's power outages.

Civil War is Brewing as Pakistan to Prepare Attack on Taliban

Nuclear fears prompt Pakistan to prepare attack on Taleban - Times Online

The Taliban are relentless and the Pakistani's may not have the will power to stop them. They already gave them concessions rather than resistance.

Thousands of Pakistani troops were massing for an assault on Taleban positions 65 miles from the country's capital last night after giving the insurgents 24 hours to withdraw from their advanced positions or face attack.

The threat of force follows a stern warning from American policymakers that Islamabad was doing too little to stem a growing militant insurgency.
