CIA's jihadi chat room hacked by Pentagon
The ongoing cyber war between the military and the CIA is getting nasty, with the agency crying foul after losing its favorite terrorist message board. And now Saudi princes and Texans are being dragged into the fight, too.
Anti-Islamic activities of jihadi fighters
Recently, a journalist from a well reputed international media group took an interview of one such determined terrorist at a secret place in Punjab province of Pakistan. This 30 years old Punjabi youth, named Amjad Butt had an AK 47 on his shoulder and a revolver on his side. While introducing himself, Butt said earlier that he himself was drug addicted and later got involved in its smuggling. He said that after his involvement in drug business, people started calling him goon. Butt accepted that neither can he perform Namaaz nor can he read the holy Qur’an. Other than that, he doesn’t have any Islamic knowledge. Despite this, Amjad is so confident that it’s easy for him to kill anybody and give away his own life in the name of Islam. Punjab province, Pak Occupied Kashmir and FATA region on Afpak border have large numbers of such fighters who, whether know Islamic education or not, follow it or not, but are experts in killing and getting killed in the name of Islam.
Amazingly, this snip is NOT about America, but read it and see the irony:
The fact is that seething just below a calm surface, we have quite massive public anger. Like the lava from a simmering volcano, this rage pours forth from time to time. Citizens everywhere, as they struggle to survive in times that get harder by the day, hold great rancour against the government. The failure to deliver on all the various promises made by a set-up that came to power on the basis of its professed commitment to the cause of the people adds to this sentiment. There is a very strong perception of large-scale corruption, that pockets are being lined and lucrative contracts awarded, and that at the end of their stint in power many of those who today hold office will retire to their villas or to apartments overseas to enjoy the illegal gains accumulated over the past months. People across the country will meanwhile remain as impoverished and as miserable as ever. Rather than accusing 'aliens' of stirring up trouble, the government needs to take heed of this reality. At some level at least the support of the people is essential. This is all the more true in a democracy, given that – in theory at least – the decision-makers hold their position because of the will of the people. The government must realize that if it does not serve them, if it makes no effort to cater to their needs, the distance between it and the masses will continue to grow and, as a result, we may see more rage on our streets.
