Pakistani seminaries vow to continue preaching jihad

Thus they will continue to be terrorist factories. "Pak seminaries vow to continue preaching jihad," from ANI, with thanks to the Constantinopolitan Irredentist:

Religious Islamic leaders who run madarassas in Pakistan have categorically rejected the federal government's ordinance which makes it mandatory for all religious schools to get registered under the Societies Registration Act 1860, saying that the seminaries would "continue to teach the principles of jihad as inscribed in the Holy Quran".
The Daily Times quoted the religious leaders as saying that they would not cooperate with the federal government on the registration issue "until the government addressed the concerns of religious leaders".

Denying that some religious seminaries were involved in giving militancy training, the religious leaders, while speaking at the "Religious Schools and Contemporary Needs Convention", said that they would not accept any dictation from the government on the curriculum that should be taught in the madarassas.
