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,"

It depends on whose statistics you accept. But I believe there are move Chinese Muslims in the west of China than all Christians (Catholic and Protestant) in the whole of the country.

[CarrotAndStick]

That has to be good for the WOT if the Indians fight back.

The fighting has been going on since '89 in Kashmir, India.

“...And one more thing. Allah commands you to close the borders. Are you listening? MUST...CLOSE...BORDERS!!!”

The Indians could nuke Mecca and Medina.

That would put Jerusalem into the hellish position of being the holiest surviving city in Islam.

[BradyLS]

That whole region has been a sore spot since Pakistan and India became independent.

[Mrs.Z]

How quick on the nuke trigger do you figure the Indians to be?

Great. (But then, they do believe in reincarnation.)

Jammu-Kashmir

Good thing the UN is in Jammu-Kashmir to keep the peace.

Darn those Indians and their Zionist puppetmasters. /sarc

[CarrotAndStick]

True, but until 1989, the fighting was always between the Indian and Pakistani military. After, ‘89, an Islamic militancy began, beheading, murder and all- the terrorist kind.

The unique world view of the Saudi-financed al Queda movement.

No shiite?

[Porterville]

Well, it gives reason for India to take back Pakistan.

[indcons]

According to the census, it is approx. 16%. If one were to include the illegal aliens there (millions of muslim Bangladeshis and thousands of Pakis), the numbers go up as high as 21%, if not higher.

Thanks E.

No Blue States, I see you found the figure. The Moslem pop of India is about 150 million I think, a great deal of it in Kashmir. From a file on the hard drive:

Banning Of Madonna's Book:Sex
Review by A. Ghosh

One Azeem Akhtar was Indira Gandhi's press-man. This man had instituted more than a hundred court cases in Delhi against Pandita Rakesh Rani of the Dayanand Sansthan, which publishes Hindu religious and patriotic books. While the Koran, that preaches violence against all non-Moslems, instigates subvertion and even war against a non-Moslem majority country (the barbarians call it dar ul harb) remains un-banned; all other books of value are suppressed in mainly Hindu India... The Rao government continues to suppress the results of the 1981 census report... Hindus and Christians are being chided and cajoled into family planning or birth control while the Moslems of India are left free to litrally breed like rabbits. And that is because of their religion and Moslem Personal Law... How can a country have two different laws for the people and still take pride in calling itself secular? The suppression of the census report stems from the mortal fear of the Congress government; if the report is released it will be evident to everyone that the jump in Moslem population in India has been extraordinarily high. It is very unlikely that the Hindus will take this lying down and wait quietly till the day the Moslems take over the country and that too in the name of democracy and open election... And if the news is released now, the Moslems will not have the ghost of a chance to overpower the Hindus, and that inspite of the presence of some 40 odd Islamic nations around the world. The recent incidents first in Bulgaria and now in Bosnia Herzegovina have proven that... The rate of increase in the Moslem population in India is even higher than that of the Pakistanis, who have already set a world record. But this extremely high output of India's Moslems is not evident due to the fact that the increases are NOT reported community-wise. The Moslem increase in population is made undetectable because all other Indian communities, the Hindus, the Christians, the Buddhists, etc, have very low population increase.

Is there anyone other then themselves they have not declared war on now? Oh yeah, oddly enough not the Chinese...yet.

They have, in Xinjiang Province in the north west of China.
