| Paks spring Jaish supremo... |

| India has reacted furiously to the freeing on court orders of an outlawed Islamic militant leader in Pakistan. A foreign ministry spokesman said the decision showed the Pakistani authorities were not serious in pursuing charges against Maulana Masood Azhar. The group he leads, Jaish-e-Mohammad, is accused of a string of deadly attacks on Indian targets, including one on parliament in Delhi a year ago on Friday. Azhar was detained shortly after that attack, but the Lahore High Court said there were insufficient grounds to keep him under house arrest without charge any longer. There never is, is there? Certainly not in Pakland... Delhi was outraged in November when the founder and former leader of Lashkar-e-Toiba, also blamed in the parliament attack, was freed in similar circumstances. It's the Pak revolving door. Things heat up, the Bad Guys are in jug. Things cool off, the Bad Guys are out of jug. Somehow, when they're out, things heat up again. It shouldn't be too long before India and Pak are ready to nuke each other again. You read it here first. |

| #1 Islamic rules of evidence are a sick joke. All sort of conduct that civilized people deem criminal, are de facto legal to Muslims. I am not a fan of Muslim immigration or of partnership with Pakistan. |
