The Haqqani Network is a Taliban wing  based in Pakistan. Last week it was responsible for the terrorist attack on an NATO installation in Kabul. Sixteen people were killed – no Americans.

Now irrefutable mobile intercept evidence has been traced which shows the direct link between Haqqani network and the ISI.

According to U.S. officials, the Haqqani network consists of several thousand fighters and operates with impunity from safe havens inside Pakistan, conducting cross-border raids into Afghanistan and up into Kabul.

The Pakistani spy agency uses the Haqqanis to sow violence so Afghanistan cannot emerge as a strong and stable country allied with Pakistan’s arch enemy India.

Two days before the attack on the U.S. Embassy, a large truck bomb went off at an American combat outpost, wounding 77 U.S. soldiers.

Stop the Islamisation of Norway have stated that ‘the politically correct Norway must take their share of the blame for the terrorist attack’ carried out by Anders Behring Breivik last Friday. According to an imperfect Google translation, the group asserts that ‘Politicians have strangled Islam debate and refused to take on the threat Islam represents for countries and people’, and that ‘newspaper editors’, ‘TV and radio executives’, ‘anti-racists’ and ‘left-extremists’ have prevented ‘the real Islam critics from being heard’, citing themselves as silenced experts. They went on to posit that if politicians had not ‘shut their eyes and ears but taken necessary steps’, Breivik’s killing spree could have been prevented.

The remarks appeared in an article written by SIAN ‘leader’ Arne Tumyr which was published on the group’s website on Sunday night. The site had released a shorter statement eight hours earlier condemning Breivik as ‘an enemy of Norway’. Both pieces remain on the SIAN site, which currently bares the following passage on its homepage: ‘Islam is the backdrop for this tragedy – this incredible and horrific mass murder that Sian takes the stand from. Also we feel with the relatives. The political correct Norway, however, has its share of the blame – the politicians have put a lid on Islamic debate – despite the fact that most of the Norwegian people is opposed to Islam.’(sic)

The title describes the mindset that permits some Muslims to view this story as a form of “defensive jihad” waged against “the West”. This is in fact the type of thing that a Muslim commentator of this blog would have us believe Pakistanis want to have inflicted on them because, apparently, the “West is at war with Islam”. Their message is clear: Pakistanis would much prefer to have bombs strapped to a child for a suicide mission than have Islam “demonized” in the West. Go figure.

An eight-year-old Pakistani girl was kidnapped by militants who forced her to wear a suicide vest to attack security forces, police said on Monday.

Police produced the girl, identified as Sohana Javaid, before a news conference broadcast on Pakistani television channels.

The girl recalled how she was kidnapped in her hometown of Peshawar by two women and a man who pulled up in a car.
