Lashkar chief sees terror as the only way

This is what the chief of Lashkar-e-Taiba had to say

This is an archived blog post from The Acorn.

Addressing a meeting in Muzzaffarabad, in Pakistan-administered Kashmir, Mr Saeed said the concept of Islamic moderation was unacceptable to most Muslims.

Jihad, or holy war, was the only way to liberate the rest of Kashmir from the control of Indian security forces, he added.

He also criticised General Musharraf’s attempts to establish cultural and travel links with India.

Mr Saeed said the Islamic mujahideen were determined to continue with their activities. [BBC] Cross-border terrorism is not over yet. Musharraf’s continued tolerance and patronisation of the jehadi queen-bees is the strongest evidence of his intentions.
