US agencies say Pakistan agency helped Indian terrorists

American intelligence agencies have determined that former officers from Pakistan's Army and its powerful Inter-Services Intelligence agency helped train the Mumbai attackers.

The New York Times, citing a former Defence Department official, said while no specific links had been uncovered between the terrorists and the Pakistani government, three or four masterminds of the attack, including a leader of Lashkar-e-Taiba, Yusuf Muzzamil had been identified.

Lashkar-e-Taiba is officially banned in Pakistan, but it has been linked to the country's powerful intelligence service and is believed to have moved its militant networks to Pakistan's tribal areas.

His disclosure came as Admiral Mike Mullen, the chairman of the US Joint Chiefs of Staff, met with his Pakistani counterpart in Islamabad to pressure Pakistan to cooperate fully in the effort to track down those responsible for last week's terror attacks in Mumbai.

Admiral Mullen pressed the Pakistani leaders to crack down on Lashkar-e-Taiba's network of training camps, including those in Pakistan-controlled Kashmir and the organization's guerrilla recruiting efforts.

US Director of National Intelligence Michael McConnell said two days ago the group behind the Mumbai assault also carried out the 2001 attack on the Indian parliament, which authorities blamed on Lashkar-e-Taiba.

If only people trusted in GOD, would we be happy?

Sad to think that these people think God’s law does not already exist? It is sad to think that people are using God as an excuse for the sake of their own fragile ego which needs a gun to make them a man.. Take away the gun and this fear and they are small children who are afraid of the dark.. Funny thing is that we all die and we all leave with what we came.. just our soul.. Guns and violence have no place in the house of God.

LeT is the terrorist wing of ISI. It is a deception by Pakistanis that it is something else.
Why not admit it.

Can they conquer the whole world?

It`s absurd to accuse a particular Person or a particular terrorist Jehadi
Organisation who spreads terrorism in Afghanistan, India and all
over the world. The matter of the fact is that the God father of such
terrorist souls and terrorist Jehadi Organisation is Pakistani Military,
their ISI and the privilaged people ....Panjabis and Mohajirs (the Urdo
speakers migrated from India.) This is a great business and a fearful
ideology which is based on to conquer the whole world and defeat
the western civilisation, install Khilafat etc. etc.
