Husain Haqqani in Gulf News (thanks to Eschwapp) makes a point that I made here not long ago: that Pakistan’s banning of foreign students from its madrassas will do nothing to curb jihadism in Pakistan or by Pakistanis in other countries, because the homegrown jihadists will still be trained in those madrassas.
