dont post wikipedia information.That is true, but prior to that the Pakistani state was funding them,
Refer:Lashkar-e-Jhangvi | Mapping Militant Organizations
LeJ has had a long relationship with the Pakistani state. Beginning in the 1980s, LeJ's parent organization SSP, and then later LeJ itself, received financial support from the central Pakistani government.[6]
This funding was intended to counter the rising influence of Iran's revolutionary Shiism, as well as to use the groups as an asymmetric element of its strategy toward India.[7] LeJ and most other Sunni militant groups in Pakistan gladly accepted financial support, but cooperated only when the government’s goals accorded with their own.
The Pakistani government began cracking down on LeJ in 1998 and formally banned the group in 2001 (and SSP in 2002). The groups responded by directly targeting top Pakistani leadership (first prime minister Nawaz Sharif and later general Pervez Musharraf) and later expanded their attacks to broader state interests. Under the government of Asif Ali Zardari, a Shiite, LeJ and SSP have stepped up their attacks and become increasingly involved in a wider militant movement that continues to target non-Deobandi minorities and the state itself.
The arab sponsorship of these guys also ties into the anti-shia angle.
Rubbish........TTP came into existence in 2007.Lashkar-e-Jhangvi - Wikipedia, the free encyclopedia
Of course man, none of these would have existed had there not been State funding and overwhelming public support.
In fact, the TTP too is now warring with the Pakistani Army because the funds and support got diverted to Kashmir specific groups, esp the LeT. Before that, the TTP had enjoyed overwhelming support of the Pakistani Army, the government, and the public too (TTP had promised to help liberate Kashmir from the clutches of Hindu India).
Also, LeJ and Sipah-e-Sahaba goons are sustained by numerous by politicians so they can be used to intimidate others, esp during the elections. In the very last election, the AK waving Sipah e Sahaba guys, mostly clad in all black, were in high demand and numerous reports and pictures had come out where people had sighted them making rounds in open jeeps and small trucks always heading in the direction where polling was going on.
Just speechless. If this doesn't show high level terrorist sympathy at a regional level (Punjab) and a federal level i.e. they did nothing about it, I don't know what does.
Utter filth the lot of them.
The support not only goes high, it is also broad within Pakistani society. That is a lethal combination.
Appalling.
And yet, a solution must be found if civil society is to survive in Pakistan. Somehow.
We can start with why so many middle class folks think that what their ancestors practiced i.e. Islamic Sufism is Biddah, Shirk and evil. Maybe they like having the dance of suicide bombers as opposed to Mawlid processions.....
Anyway, for another topic.
I am thinking cant an encounter type procedure be arranged for these guys ? seriously Lej , has got its hand dipped in the bloods of innocent Shia's , in the most barbarous way the country has recently seen, plus when the courts stops doing what it need to do, then police encounter is the only viable option leftdon't worry he will be going back once he has sucked on blood of some shias ----@Horus wth is this now
