Pakistan is the “most dangerous country” says former CIA top brass

Pakistan is probably the “most dangerous country” for the world, a former CIA official has said, citing the potential dangers emanating from its failing economy, rampant terrorism and one of fastest growing nuclear arsenal.

Kevin Hulbert, a former CIA Station Chief in Islamabad, warned that the “failure” of Pakistan would have implications for the world.

Pakistan is like the bank that is “too big to fail”, or “too big to allow to fail” more appropriately, because allowing the bank to fail could have catastrophic impacts on the greater economy, Hulbert wrote in the Cipher Brief – a website for the intelligence community.
