		<description>Rice is going through the failed, tired motions of this shuttle diplomacy with little more than providing lip service. Pakistan will do only what it needs to in order to not be sanctioned by the UN (by that I mean the US). I am sure there are some tribal leaders/terrorists who have not paid their due to the government. Some of them may be sacrficied as the solution to the problem but that will be the extent of it. India has the real problem here. Their internal security is a joke and their government is filled with corruption and more than likely, people in positions of power aided the terrorists in this attack as a way to bring down the Indian leadership. They may succeed as Condi decides whether to run the 49&#039;ers or not.</description>

		<description>Everyone patriotic American should  know how deep pakistan has been in the islamic-terror business. Afterall , our taxpayers have been funding pakistani government and  ISI since the days of Kissinger !
Presidents have come and presidents have gone in the US, but the policy of DC  towards pakistan and  specifically muslim terrorists has remained unchanged. 
It was only when it became clear  after the Mumbai massacre,  that the terrorists in pakistan will be wiped out by India , that the US state department hit the 
panic-button  and flew  their mascot  
( Sec Rice ) to talk &quot;peace&quot; . Just like they send her to Isreal a few yrs ago , when the Israelis were at the verge of eliminating hezbollah et al . 
Whats up with that ? Why is the state department going out of its way to keep muslim terrorism alive, both in the middle-east and pakistan?
After Hussain takes over White House and Clintons take over the State Department, islamic terrorists will have no restrictions on their activities at all, and the  US government will actually defend islamic terrorism and blame the victims, as official US policy!
Isreal and India should start depending on their own resources and strategies for their survival. Everytime they interact with DC about islamic terrorists, they will be actually interacting with agents of terrorism themselves !
Any bets that the new prez and his new sec of state will do ANYTHING &lt;strong&gt;against &lt;/strong&gt;islamic terrorism?</description>

		<description>Obama won, what&#039;s their problem?

I thought the world loved us again, and that peace would return to the globe?

The disagreements between Pakistan and India were clearly Bush-created, so they should have dissolved with Barack&#039;s election.

Even Bush said Islam is a Religion of Peace, so it can&#039;t have anything to do with Mohammadism.

This is all very confusing.

Rice called it the &quot;Holy&quot; Koran, so she must know something.

Must be a cultural thing.  Or poverty.



Guess I&#039;ll have to read the Koran again and see if it is because Obama isn&#039;t inaugurated yet.

Yeah, that&#039;s the ticket.</description>

		<description>Israeli experts help India prepare commando raids into Pakistan

DEBKAfile Exclusive Report

December 6, 2008, 4:23 PM (GMT+02:00)

New Delhi has asked Jerusalem to assist in the operational and intelligence planning of Indian commando cross-border strikes against Islamist terrorist havens in Pakistan - including al Qaeda, Indian counter-terror sources report.

The Indian government&#039;s decision to embark on these in-and-out incursions in reprisal for the Mumbai outrage of Nov. 26-29 was first revealed in DEBKA-Net-Weekly 375 published Dec. 4 (Indian Retaliatory Raids inside Pakistan Impending).

DEBKAfile adds: Israel is willing to help the Indians carry out punitive forays into Pakistan because it has its own scores to settle for the brutal murder of six Israelis in Mumbai&#039;s Chabad Center by the Islamist terrorists and for the Pakistani Inter-Services Intelligence (ISI) agency&#039;s hand in the atrocity.

Security sources in New Delhi disclosed Saturday, Dec. 6, that ISI officers actively trained the terrorists on military lines and selected their targets, including two big hotels and the Jewish-Israeli center.

Indian sources told DEBKAfile that Israel was asked for assistance because its special undercover forces were long seasoned in plotting and executing reprisals for terrorist attacks; above all, they were expert in getting away after covert operations without leaving a trail. New Delhi wants its commando operations in Pakistan to be stealthy and focused, and does not propose to admit responsibility.

Four Pakistani locations are targeted:

1. Pakistani Kashmir where scores if not hundreds of extremist Muslim training facilities are situated - many of them ISI-run and funded;

2. Punjab in eastern Pakistan on the border of northern India. DEBKAfile&#039;s counter terror sources report that Lahore and Multan have attracted a cluster of Islamist terrorist centers.

3. Pakistan&#039;s southern coast - from Karachi north to Gwadar close to the Iranian border. Indian intelligence (RAW) has evidence that this strip was where the terrorists who besieged Mumbai ten days ago were trained for their assault.

Our New Delhi sources disclose that Indian leaders showed the outline of this plan to US secretary of state Condoleezza Rice when she visited last week. She commented guardedly that the United States was strongly opposed to a full-scale war between India and Pakistan but not averse to limited counter-terror operations.</description>

Excellent observation!  Political Correctness at its best. I noticed that a few months ago.  Guess some are not worried or even noticed that. UK has been turning their backs on their own people to appease the Muslim, Islam and Islmaics. We should be very aware of this.</description>

		<description>I wonder if there were any &#039;state-actors&#039; involved in this: 

USA Today: &lt;em&gt;PESHAWAR, Pakistan (AP) — Militants blasted their way into two transport terminals in Pakistan on Sunday and torched more than 160 vehicles destined for U.S.-led troops in Afghanistan, in the biggest assault yet on a vital military supply line, officials said.
The U.S. military said its losses in the raid near the northwestern city of Peshawar would have only a &quot;minimal&quot; impact on its operations against resurgent Taliban-led militants in Afghanistan.

However, the attack&#039;s boldness will fuel concern that Taliban militants are tightening their hold around Peshawar and could choke the supply route through the famed Khyber Pass.

Up to 75% of supplies for Western forces in landlocked Afghanistan pass through Pakistan after being unloaded from ships at the Arabian sea port of Karachi. NATO is already seeking an alternative route through Central Asia.

The attack at the Portward Logistic Terminal reduced a section of the vast walled compound to a smoldering junkyard.&lt;/em&gt;</description>

		<description>Ed, the Guardian&#039;s Pakistan correspondent, Saeed Shah, has tracked down surviving Mumbai gunman Amir Ajmal Kasab&#039;s Pakistan village and finds it is a hotbed of LeT recruitment.
&lt;blockquote&gt;A villager, who cannot be named for his own protection, said the village was an active recruiting ground for the banned militant group Lashkar-e-Taiba. &#039;We know that boy [caught in Mumbai] is from Faridkot,&#039; he said. &#039;We knew from the first night [of the attack]. They brainwash our youth about jihad, there are people who do it in this village. It is so wrong,&#039; he added.&lt;/blockquote&gt;
And...
&lt;blockquote&gt;...[T]he villager who turned whistleblower said that local religious clerics were brainwashing youths in the area and that Lashkar-e-Taiba&#039;s founder, Hafiz Sayeed, had visited nearby Depalpur, where there were &#039;hundreds&#039; of supporters.

		<content:encoded><![CDATA[<p>Ed, the Guardian&#8217;s Pakistan correspondent, Saeed Shah, has tracked down surviving Mumbai gunman Amir Ajmal Kasab&#8217;s Pakistan village and finds it is a hotbed of LeT recruitment.</p>
<blockquote><p>A villager, who cannot be named for his own protection, said the village was an active recruiting ground for the banned militant group Lashkar-e-Taiba. &#8216;We know that boy [caught in Mumbai] is from Faridkot,&#8217; he said. &#8216;We knew from the first night [of the attack]. They brainwash our youth about jihad, there are people who do it in this village. It is so wrong,&#8217; he added.</p></blockquote>

Any way, God Bless our Veterans!  Find it strange that Fox didn&#039;t have anything on their web site about Pearl Harbor. MSN had a tiny piece.  Did some forget?  God Bless our Country, and the brave Men and Women who fight to keep us safe!</description>
