Terrorism Update The Unnamed
Center of the Axis of Evil And Jammuites and Ladhakis and Kashmiris proved that they knew the Pakistani mindset a lot better than that of the world’s top leaders. And now they have the statistics to prove it. Terrorism and infiltration have not declined, despite any statements that Pakistani leaders have made. Brutal killings of Hindus and pro-India Muslim continue every day in the state. As Daniel Pearl found out in Pakistan at the cost of his own life, Jaish-e-Mohammed offices continue to function and finance its operations with impunity. The sprawling Lashkar-e-Toiba compound outside Lahore is still teeming with terrorists. And Pakistan-occupied Kashmir is still being used as a staging area for jehad against India. Let us look at some of the statistics:
Clearly, the frontline ally in the war against terrorism, Pakistan, itself continues to conduct the largest terrorism operation. It continues to harbor Taliban and Al Qaida fugitives. Sheikh Omar, now notorious in the Daniel Pearl case, was roaming freely in the country despite his funding of September 11 hijacker Mohammed Atta. Pakistan’s less than capable investigation of the Pearl case and Musharraf’s own wild statements related to the case, indicate that the ISI is still the key to the remnants of Al Qaida’s terror networks. The Bush administration continues to make excuses for Pakistan. For years the Clinton White House ignored the facts and left Pakistan off the terrorist sponsors list. The result was September 11, and the mayhem that still continues in J&K. By leaving Pakistan out of his definition of the “Axis of Evil”, President Bush is perpetuating the same error that his predecessor made. The only other country that has the capability and motive for dismantling Pakistan’s military-jehad nexus is India. But can India ever get out of its self-imposed shackles and take on the center of the evil axis? Or is it in Kashmiri destiny to forever suffer through Pakistani terrorism? |
