#1 Here's some of the gems:

about 700 foreign students were studying in religious schools and universities in the country. About a half of them had not obtained NOCs from their countries and, therefore, they would be repatriated. ....

[studying in] over 14,000 seminaries across Pakistan

Thats a whopping 1/20^th of a student per madrassah. Big progress on the fight against terrorism there, Pakistan. Can you say window dressing?

Despite some clues leading to Pakistani seminaries in last years London bombing investigations, no seminary was involved in the act and time had proved this. ....

Sure thing. Righto. None of your fucking terrorist madrassahs are churning out any jihadists. Not even the one we rocketed the other day. You know, the one led by a terrorist commander.

A UK-based Islamic charity organisation remitted a huge amount of money to three individuals in three different bank accounts in Mirpur, Azad Kashmir, in December last year with the sole purpose of helping its recipients and their organisations carry out the aircraft bombing plan in the UK

[snip]

"What raised alarm among British sleuths specialising in finances was the fact that the entire money was remitted to three individuals, not to any organisation or organisations involved in the relief work." ....

Are these charities still in operation? Who are they and why arent they smoking holes in the ground or bulldozed rubbish heaps? Are all of their officers in remand? If not, why not?

Mobile phone operators are still reluctant to render stolen cellphones dysfunctional despite clear instructions from the Pakistan Telecommunication Authority (PTA) in this regard issued on September 30, 2006. The PTA had directed all the Cellular phone companies to start using the mobile phones jamming device from September 30 to render dysfunctional any cellphone reported stolen, snatched or missing in order to help recover the set and effectively curb crime. The PTA has stated that only about 5,000 such phone sets have so far been blocked.

Wouldnt want to interfere with that old revenue stream, even if it means a few terrorist atrocities, eh?

One rocket exploded late on October 4 in the Ayub public park in Rawalpindi, near Musharrafs army residence. Another three were found nearby. Two more rockets were found close to the official presidency building and Parliament in Islamabad on October 5, followed by another two near the Inter Services Intelligence headquarters in the capital two days later. Militants had planned to launch all of them simultaneously, but only the one in Rawalpindi worked .... Security forces traced the suspects by decoding mobile phones attached to shells.

Garsh, youd think Musharraf would be all over these cellular companies like a bad suit. Maybe the ISI is dragging its feet, eh?

During the course of a random check of the records of the cellphone service providers, the authorities found instances where more than 8,000 cellphone connections had been issued in the name of a single applicant. This was in violation of the law which lays down that no individual can have more than 10 connections in his or her name.

And youre going to tell me that this escaped official notice in a land of intense government corruption? These were sold to bomb makers. Whos going to swing for this one?

#3 Oh, Fleter (you know you can change your tag line) what they did to their women and children is disgusting. They had to stay up in the mountains and freeze and starve instead of allowing the infidels to look upon them.

#4 Harsh as it may sound, they simply managed to clean out their gene pool for us. Finding more wimmen folk who are ready to hightail it off into the boonies and freeze to death during the next disaster might'n be a leetle tough. I'm hoping that Britain has learned its lesson about what happens to aid sent for Muslim relief. Sadly, so many Pakistanis live in Britain that much of it probably is intended for terrorist funding.
