An international inquiry must be held about safety of stock piles of such serious weapons.

Lucky due to quick effective action by our alert security, now let us investigate if it was just an accident or some sinister plan by our eastern neighbor to embarrass us just before OIC meeting .

Those old enough might remember explosions in a Lahore ammo depot in 1969. No one was told injured or killed, but doors were sucked out from houses 5 miles away.
