| FBI agents waiting to launch raids on seminaries |

| FBI agents in Pakistan are waiting for permission to search more than two dozen madrassas near the Afghanistan border. The FBI suspects that the madrassas are hideouts for top al Qaeda and Taliban leaders, and are said to have given a hit list of madrassas to the Interior Ministry. But Pakistani officials, fearing that raids would spark a local uprising, are negotiating with the FBI on a much shorter list. FBI headquarters says it can't confirm any such dealings, but that the raids "sure sound like a good idea." This is exactly what the Fundos don't want to happen — 'cause we kinda have an idea there are probably 1000+ thugs, gunnies, snuffies, and other assorted crazed killers enjoying free room and board mixed in with the schoolboys. |
