Jihad to stay in Pak schools
Islamabad, July 25: The Pakistan government has decided that jihad will continue to feature in its curricula for schoolchildren. Education minister Lieutenant General (retired) Javed Ashraf Qazi, a former chief of the Inter-Services Intelligence (ISI), said jihad is an integral part of Islamic teachings and beliefs and would not be taken off the curricula, which is currently being reviewed. “Jihad has many dimensions, which also includes self-negation, and we will teach students the full concept of jihad,” he told reporters during a briefing on the draft of the new curricula for Classes I to XII.

THANK YOU Oorang.
(Remebering Germany and 9/11).
Thanks, Oorang. I'm sure we are on super, extra, extreme alert in the U.S., too...........hopefully.
Fox News just reported four UN observers killed in Israeli airstrike.
Thanks for the updates, Oorang.
Thanks for the links Oorang! Wonder if foreign aid funds are as necessary as "jihad training" in Pakistan? Asking the old question: Is Pakistan with us or against us?
Starting in 2002 the executive branch began to underscore the war on terrorism as a top foreign aid priority. According to the Congressional Research Service, the State Department now highlights the amount of U.S. assistance going to some 30 “front-line” states in the terrorism war. Aid to Pakistan, for example, jumped from $1.7 million in 2001 to $275 million in 2004.
