| Amir Taheri on Mumbai Terrorists |
| 2008-11-30 |
| Earlier this week, for example, Pakistan President Assif Ali Zardari announced his readiness to settle the dispute with India over Kashmir, promising an end to a conflict that has led to four wars and countless terrorist campaigns over the past 50 years. This plus the desire to disband ISI's Political Wing probably precipitated this assault. On Wednesday, terror organizations that do not wish the Kashmir problem to be solved offered their opinion of such a shift. The attacks in Bombay likely were carried out by Hindi-speaking Islamists with possible links to elements within the Pakistani intelligence community who have built their careers and personal fortunes around the Kashmir issue. These elements are serving notice that they would resist Zardari's dramatic departure from a long-established policy of enmity against India. |
