SRINAGAR, India --A group claiming to represent the al-Qaida terror network declared a holy war on India over its partial control of the divided Himalayan region of Kashmir, Indian officials said Saturday. A statement and video was sent Friday to the Current News Service, in Srinagar, the main city of India's Jammu-Kashmir state, in which a masked man standing next to an automatic weapon read the declaration.

"We declare righteous holy war against India on behalf of God the great in which Jammu and Kashmir will be the launch pad for holy war in India,"

Just think if there is a coup in Pakistan and al-Qaida & their Taliban cohorts seize control of Pakistan’s nuclear arsenal. Not a pleasant though for India not the world.

the author wrote that while most Chinese are considerably quiet about their religion and faith and take care not to offend the ChiCom govt., Chinese muslims are as fanatical as their Wahabbi Arab bretheren.

Islam, like Marxism, is a very attractive ideology to the frustrated and angry underclass (especially those with voilent tendencies, since it gives them an excuse and an outlet for their feelings).

I thought the left (as well as Ron Paul) says they only hate us and love everyone else? Apparently their hate and are at war with India too.

Guess they are just your run of the mill religious bigots and expansionists terrorists instead of the leftists propanganda labelled aggrived simple folk who really just want to get along with everybody.

It’s easy to spot the moderates from the radicals. The moderates are all those that came out strongly condemning 9/11 and the other assorted acts of islamic terrorism.

Hope that helps. Have a nice day.

When Britain had it it was just called Dominion of India.
The population agreed to fight in the British Army in return for independence when the war finished.However, some, like Mahatma Ghandi and Chandra Bhose, wanted a single country regardless of religion but other more powerful figures wanted secsession, namely Jarwal Nehru and Mohammed Ali Jinnah. The Viceroy Lord Mountbatten was reluctant to split the country but he looked ahead and knew what would happen.
So in October 1947 British Troops, bureaucrats, and police lowered the Union Jack and 2 new nations were born. There was a huge population movement, with Muslims going to Pakistan and Hindus/Sikhs/Christians passing them on the other side of the road. It seems to be a forgotten part of history but there were an estimated 1 and a 1/4 MILLION butchered in the following 6 months.
I travel to India nearly every year and rent a place out there, and in October 1997 was in Mumbai during th 50th anniversary.
I spoke to several older people who were displaced; they told me hideous things, pregnant women macheted, lynchings, people roasted alive over camp fires.
I couldnt sleep that night it seemed like they were talking about a different country.
Apparently the killers and victims were often former friends and neighbours.

“I THink this may be their aim. The Indians have Nukes and the Pakastanis have Nukes. They want to start WW3 so that their Mahdi can return and the infidel be destroyed.”

And that is how they think. In two dimensional moves that if WWIII starts because of nukes, they get their global caliphate and rule the world. Actually, the bible says they do start this war and 1/3 of mankind dies but they lose. Good in this universe seems to be 2/3 of anything and the bad 1/3. But the bad guys keep trying...

Yeah except consider that during our operation against the Taliban (Al Queda) in Afghanistan the Taliban were sending delegates whom were meeting with PRC generals. Think of Al Queda as the tail of the dragon. It was the PRC who created the manual “Assymetrical Warfare” (released in 1998) where in one part, it specifically talks about how airliners could be used as commercial bombs against economic targets.

A good reminder that Jews and Crusaders are not the only infidels under attack. Most of the world is facing this.

Is there anyone other then themselves they have not declared war on now? Oh yeah, oddly enough not the Chinese...yet.
1. If we are talking Al Qaeada, they actually were training quite a few Uyghur separatists from Chinese occupied East Turkestan (or as the genocidal communists call it, Xinjiang Uyghur Autonomous Region). I believe that we caught a few. Those not turned over to China, are begging to stay in gitmo, because the Chicoms will show them a real war crime.
There are anywhere from 20 to 100 million Muslims in China.
http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Islam_in_China
I think that if the Chicoms were less ruthless, there could be a bigger problem.
This leads to an annoying quandry, who do I root against?

2. Actually, China has fought against Muslim expansion since the Battle of Talas in 751.
Essentually, the Tang Dynasty kept dominance over the Qarluq Khanate. Muslims would not dominate Transoxiana until the Karakhanid empire in the 11th century.

Not only that....but the chance to drop a Nuke on Paks and AQ might just be too tempting to let pass.
