The evidence is tumbling out of the closet-Pakistan's
creation Lashkar-e-Taiba is not merely allied to Al Qaida but can now be described
as the new Al Qaida. With the UN Security Council listing LeT leaders Arif
Qasmani, Mohammad Yahya Mujahid and Abu Mohammed Ameen al-Peshawari as terrorists
allied to Al Qaida, yet another veil is being ripped off Pakistan's terror
claims.
A UNSC resolution adopted on June 29 says,
"Qasmani has worked with the LeT to facilitate terrorist attacks, to
include the July 11, 2006 train bombing in Mumbai and the February 2007 Samjhauta
Express bombing in Panipat. Qasmani utilised money that he received from Dawood
Ibrahim in the 7/11 train blasts.''
