Romney an Ally of Terrorists?

In the debate last night, Mitt Romney described Pakistan as an ally.  Pakistan has provided nuclear technology and technical support throughout the Islamic world, including, most direly, Iran.  And Pakistan has sheltered al Qaeda among the Pashtuns in southwestern Pakistan, near the border to Afghanistan.  Further, General Pervez Musharraf overthrew one of the few democracies among Islamic countries (admittedly, a dysfunctional one, but still a democracy), and more recently sought to overturn Pakistan's Constitution and the rule of law.  Allies like that make North Korea by comparison seem cuddly and reliable.
