Could not agree with him more. When will Pakistanis rise up like the Jordanians did in 1970 and kick out these terrorists from Pakistan once and for all.
DAWN.COM | + Pakistan | Indian PM calls Pakistan ?epicenter of world terrorism?
LONDON: Describing Pakistan as the ‘epicenter of world terrorism’ Indian Prime Minister Manmohan Singh has asserted that Islamabad was either ‘unable’ or ‘unwilling’ to control the militant group, Lashkar-e-Taiba (LeT).
In an interview published in the Wednesday edition of British newspaper Financial Times, he said that Islamabad had failed to take effective action against militants.
Singh said everybody including the intelligence agencies of developed countries now admit that the attacks on Mumbai were planned and acted upon in Pakistani territory.
‘That is living proof that despite many promises made by Pakistan since 2004 to my predecessor and to me that Pakistan will not be used to undertake acts of terror against India, in practice no effective action has been taken.’
The Indian prime minister stopped short of accusing the institution of Pakistan’s armed forces itself and the ISI of being involved in what he said perpetrating ‘these acts of terror’ and said that there are ‘elements in the armed forces of Pakistan, some segments of its intelligence agency (the ISI)’ who he said were involved especially the attack in July on the Indian embassy in Kabul which killed 41 people.
‘The world has a responsibility that Pakistan lives up to the promise that it will not allow its territory to be used to promote acts of terror directed against India,’ he said.
Indian PM or anyone else saying anything will make no difference unless Pakistanis themselves realize that their country is the epicenter of world terrorism, and that this fact is hurting them more than anyone else and they need to do something about it fast.
Something more than whats been done so far since that has obviously not helped…
