KARACHI: The UK based Janes Information Group, which publishes magazines on military subjects and transportation, has tried to equate Islam with terrorism. In a condemnable move, it has published symbols extremely sacred to Muslims, on the front page of one of its June 2010 magazines.
Janes Terrorism and Security Monitor, on its front page just below the name of the magazine, carries the symbols, and the topic ostensibly covered by the magazine is Dismantling Iraqs Islamic State.
Also, the headline of the article given is ISI suffers degradation. The writer explains the ISI is the Islamic State of Iraq, an umbrella of militant organisations. He does not use the real name of the organisation, i.e. the Dawlat al-Iraq al-Islamiyya.
The readers of the magazine have strongly condemned the move, saying it amounts to not only disrespecting the two symbols greatly valued and cherished by the Muslims all over the world, but it also tries to link Islam with terrorism.
The report in Janes, a UK-based group, incidentally coincides with the growing number of British and American casualties in Afghanistan and the recent statement of the British Army chief that the Afghan problem cannot be solved militarily.
