Lashkar and Jaish to stand down
2002-01-18
  • Lashkar-e-Tayyeba and Jaish-e-Mohammad have decided to suspend their activities in Jammu and Kashmir in response to the crackdown by the Musharraf government in Pakistan. Sources said radio intercepts by Indian security agencies reveal both groups have asked their cadres to restrain their activities for the time being. About 1,000 activists of the two groups — a majority of whom are Pakistani nationals — are presently active in the Kashmir Valley and parts of Jammu region. Most commanders of the two groups have gone underground to escape arrest.
    They intend this to be a temporary measure, but if Pakland keeps up the pressure and keeps the funding cut off, the gunnies are goners. India wins, Pakland wins, we win. Thank you, Mr. Rumsfeld! By the way, that stuff about "For every Osama you kill, a thousand will spring up to take his place" - that's all hooey. When you cut off a snake's head, the body wiggles for awhile, but eventually it dies.
