Reports say they prayed at Markazi Jamia Masjid Raja Bazaar, Rawalpindi and five of them – including Haji Mateen, Jawadullah, Abdul Jalil and Abdul Waseh – later left for Islamabad where they stayed at Jamia Fareedia and Lal Masjid.

#6  RJ - if they did bomb the UN I guarantee it would hit the media as "because of the US...." and the LLL internet world as "US attack disguised as Taliban."

#2  Interesting etymology - 'lunatic' (root is the word for 'moon') means 'people made crazy by the moon', and Muslims have the moon as their symbol and can be called 'worshippers of the moon god', or 'people made crazy by the moon.'
