Kerry: Pakistan has “vigorous commitment to take on and defeat violent extremist groups”
Joke of the Day. Kerry won’t name them and Pakistan won’t fight them. But there goes $3.4 billion more American taxpayer dollars, frittered away for smiles and promises. How much of it will end up in the hands of the Islamic jihadists Kerry is afraid to identify as such, as so much of it has […]
Pakistani officials enraged over “Homeland” portrayal of their country as “ugly, ignorant, terror-plagued ‘hellhole'”
“‘Repeated insinuations that an intelligence agency of Pakistan is complicit in protecting the terrorists at the expense of innocent Pakistani civilians is not only absurd but also an insult to the ultimate sacrifices of the thousands of Pakistani security personnel in the war against terrorism,’ a source said.” If the shoe fits: Pakistan’s ISI spy […]
US gives Pakistan free pass and $1 billion, ignores its ties to jihad terror groups
“A defence authorization bill signed by President Barack Obama last week that provides for $1 billion in aid to Pakistan in 2015 conditions it on Islamabad taking steps to disrupt the Haqqani Network and eliminating safe havens of al-Qaida and Tehrik-i-Taliban Pakistan. However, it makes no mention of the Punjab-centric terror groups such as the […]
Pakistan agrees on new antiterrorism plan, pledges to “eradicate Taliban”
Maybe the Peshawar jihad massacre really has awakened the Pakistani leadership, and maybe the Pakistanis really will take effective action against the Taliban now. But the jury is still out. After all, Pakistan’s ISI spy service planned jihad terror attacks on U.S. and Israeli consulates in India, and has been involved with other jihad attacks. […]
Pakistan grants bail to Mumbai jihad massacre mastermind
“The order came just a day after Pakistan Prime Minister Nawaz Sharif said there would be no differentiation between ‘good’ and ‘bad’ Taliban.” Which side is Pakistan on? That’s obvious. And they’ve got the jizya train rolling in from Washington to bankroll them. “Pakistan court grants bail to Zaki-ur-Rehman Lakhvi, man behind 26/11,” Express News […]
After $28 billion in aid, US still can’t get Pakistan to confront jihadists
One might almost get the idea that there was too much sympathy for the jihadis in the Pakistani government for it to take any significant action against them, and that this money has been wasted due to a refusal to deal realistically with that fact. But such considerations could be “Islamophobic,” and so it is […]
Islamic Republic of Pakistan: School textbooks promote violent jihad
The introduction of such material into the textbooks is being promoted by members of the Islamic party, Jamaat-e-Islami. Yet in the West it is an official dogma that violent jihad has nothing to do with Islam, and anyone who believes otherwise is a racist, bigoted Islamophobe. How is it that Jamaat-e-Islami has succumbed to “Islamophobia”? […]
Pakistan says Muslim charged in NY subway jihad plot killed in army raid
Pakistan, while aiding jihadis on the one hand, moves against them on the other, so as to make sure that the gravy train keeps rolling in from Washington. But they needn’t worry. Accountability isn’t Washington’s strong suit. “Pakistan says it killed senior al-Qaeda operative charged in NY subway plot,” by Haq Nawaz Khan and Sudarsan […]
Mumbai jihad murder mastermind to India: Give us Kashmir or get jihad
A murderer threatens more murder: “Hafiz warned Modi that the latter should ‘resolve the Kashmir dispute, and if you are not ready to resolve, then God willing, Kashmir will be the gate and we will launch Jihad against India.’” “Immediately resolve Kashmir dispute or Jihad will be launched against India: Terrorist Hafiz Saeed,” IBN Live, […]
