#1 "Nothing in Islam can ever justify the evil actions of the bombers."

Really? How about the Koran , Sura [9.5]

So when the sacred months have passed away, then slay the idolaters wherever you find them, and take them captives and besiege them and lie in wait for them in every ambush, then if they repent and keep up prayer and pay the poor-rate, leave their way free to them; surely Allah is Forgiving, Merciful.

#2 Not to mention

[9.29] Fight those who do not believe in Allah, nor in the latter day, nor do they prohibit what Allah and His Apostle have prohibited, nor follow the religion of truth, out of those who have been given the Book, until they pay the tax in acknowledgment of superiority and they are in a state of subjection.

[8.39] And fight with them until there is no more persecution and religion should be only for Allah; but if they desist, then surely Allah sees what they do.

#3 Sounds like Pakistan is a bit too worried. They don't usually proclaim how they are helping the infidel in the war on Islamofascists.

The US+UK should press the situation to extract hot pursuit concessions along the Afghan border, and a (first) crackdown on Paki madrassas.

#5 If 9/11 warranted an ultimatum to the Taleban to surrender Al Qaeda leadership OR ELSE, will 7/7 warrant some sort of ultimatum to Pakistan?
