Qazi's Plans
  • Charles, at LGF, has a fascinating excerpt from an interview with a buddy of Jamaat-i-Islami leader Qazi Hussein on what sort of state they want Pakland to be:

    "Presently our ideas is that the entire top leadership of JI as well as all three military Generals will be part of the presidium for which the Qazi will be the Kalifa. We are keenly watching the progress of Taliban and learning from it. We are impressed with the Taliban on the women issue, minorities issue and law and order issue. Mullah Omar is a great friend of Qazi. Omar had visited his house many times. In the tentative talks, we had decided to form union of Pakistan and Afghanistan once the right conditions are set in Pakistan (i.e. the JI government in Pakistan). Our motto is Constant Jihad. The idea is to keep Pakistan in a constant state of Jihad all the time. Qazi's vision is that Pakistan will be center of the new Islamic Empire that stretches from Burma to Afghanistan and from Srilanka to Tajikistan including Kashmir. Towards that end, Jamaat will use all tactics from terrorism in the kafir-controlled areas to negotiations in the Muslim controlled areas."
    What an enormous Taliban-flavored nightmare. "Constant Jihad" sounds a lot like Mao's idea of permanent revolution. JI is so tightly intertwined with the jihadi groups that there's no effective difference - the Sinn Fein to the jihadis' "IRA." Only worse.
