Footage cites Afghanistan, Syria and Iraq as inspiration for Muslims in disputed Himalayan region to take up arms
Senior militants from al-Qaidas central command have released a video calling on Muslims in the disputed Himalayan region of Kashmir to follow the example of brothers in Syria and Iraq and wage a violent jihad against Indian authorities.
The video, which cites the new Afghanistan being created in Syria as inspiration, is the first to specifically target Kashmir.
Entitled War should continue, message to the Muslims of Kashmir, the video was uploaded in recent days to a website where statements by other leaders of al-Qaida and its affiliates have been released in the past.

(89 posts)It is amazing how blood thirsty these crackpots are. They abuse religion to kill others that are not like them. Many of the people are just poor and have hate pouring through their hearts. What kind of world are we living in. Why would anybody waste their time making bombs to kill others. Do something fucking productive.
P.S. Yes, I know what America has done... bombing innocent civilians in Iraq and many other countries in the world. This shit is just ridiculous.

But that last line might answer your question as to why... "Yes, I know what America has done". It's easy to minimize the effect from here, but if you are one of those who has tried to live, or died, because of our global efforts to shape the world for our profit, I can guarantee you the specter of the U.S. as a coward and bully looms large to some of these people, especially those we have used for our own purposes and then tossed on the trash heap. We account for the dollars put in corporate pockets, but we forget to account for what we do to other people, the tragedy we have brought and continue to bring on a daily basis.
I personally think we have gotten off very easy. I fully expect a large biological attack on our soil which leaves enough casualties that it makes these bombs look like firecrackers.
And you are right. It's ridiculous.

(18,184 posts)you can get a vocal minority to believe anything.
You can get them to go against science, logic and reason, and believe that their religion is being attacked and that religious law is the answer to all their problems.
And with social media, the propaganda can be sent out to the four corners of the world, directly to susceptible individuals.

Under Narendra Modi's leadership, if they tried terrorism in India or Kashmir, Pakistan will be overrun and balkanized.
