LeT a serious threat to UK, US as Qaeda: CIA

Thanku for lobbying God to be with us.

And NDTV is not a biased source. And in case here are some other sources>

The Guardian, UK

I hope u guys belive in Pakistani papers atleast....
Good, here is one.....
Laskhar as big a threat as Al Qaeda: former CIA official (Lead) | Sindh Today

thanks for the source
but let me ask u something
if the suspects are british born pakistanis then how are they pakistani if they were born and raised in britian?
 
.
Maybe something to do with having fellow muslims blown up everyday srijeesh all over the world when the wound is still fresh the terrorists take advantage of the situation and exploit it like the Indian media create all the hype and unfortunately become successfull to cause loss to all people.

so, do you agree with CIA's assesment about brits of pakistani origin?
 
.
LeT should be dismantled peacefully by solving Kashmir according to UN resolutions. No need for bloodshed. They themselves stated they would give up their weapons when Kashmir issue was solved.

I think Obama is on the right path by drawing parallels between Kashmir solution and the stability of Asia. Like someone said, Kashmir is the pink elephant in the room and the main cause of instability in a nuclear armed continent.

LeT is a serious threat indeed. We should deal with the main source of their growing influence. Kashmir.

^^ applying the same logic: how do we deal with al quead and taliban? by following their brand of islam?:angry:

terrorists dont deserve sympathy. they invent excuses to further their agenda. world shouldnt fall for this trap.

I am afraid I don't because the problem is that this isn't as common a phenomenon as you think I live in the UK and I seriously doubt that British born Muslims from a Pakistan origin are there greatest problem because teen agers of any background can be troublesome they can easily be manipulated into believing things faster than older people and they tend to stick to there decisions when they make them unfortunately the past events have put them on an emotional high but I doubt that they are the biggest problem being faced by USA. The best solution in my opinion is that they should show themselves as friends of Islam to take away the purpose from these youngstersand present a bigger picture I am afraid media is really not acting as a public voice but a sponsorship magnet in this cause

but you seem to be hinting that there is high probability that CIA is right!
:confused:

I think that this is just as much a problem as Knife crime and i think it is foolish to deny it and I also admit that it has serious concequences like child molestation, but I will repeat I don't think it should be the BIGGEST WORRY on CIA's mind.

so in essence you agree that brit-pakistanis are not happy specially the teenagers and they are vulnerable to propaganda from terror and extremist organisations. we know that queda and LET are looking for these kind of ppl to exploit.
so, isnt it possible that these ppl may be inducted into terror activities against US and within US? and shouldnt this worry CIA?

Yes just as much as pure Brit children are likely to steal because their parents are going jobless.

No or very rarely maybe one in a million but highly unlikely the last place for trouble for the CIA to look or the second last after europe but seriously I really doubt that any teenager would be convinced into becoming minced meat by any form of radicalisation.
Specially because i think that most mosques emphasise on peace during congregations nowadays and I think U.S should deal with gangs and crime syndicates before making teen agers a problem.

I appreciate the honest feedback but since you are also pakistani living in UK, probably you wouldnt notice the radicalisation of the community as an outsider might be able to. we all have sub-concious bias for our ppl. no offence.

none taken I can completely understand where you are coming from but I still think it highly likely to be someone from a very poor neighbourhood from India or Pakistan (written in this order alphabetically no bias I promise;)) rather than from the UK. The nature of terrorists would appeal to very few but it can as I earlier said in a population of three and a half million they could probably find some three and a half people who are trouble for all of Humanity. They are not the biggest threat by a country mile but they are a threat nonetheless.

The best solution should be a media onslought continuously saying that this isn't the right Islam and stop using the word Muslim terrorists.

I understand wat you are saying and I agree with you for most part.
but wat we need to remember is we are specifically talking about threat to US and UK. while ppl in pakistan/india may be a threat, they wouldnt be a good choice for the terror organisations to carryout their activities in US/UK, since they would stand out and under greater scrutiny.
so, it is likely that LET/queda may use brit-pakistanis who can easily mingle and arouse less suspicion to target US/UK.

I mentioned in my post about the three and a half people and I fear they are still out their and trouble for everyone muslims in particular.

Unlike the US or Canada, being born in UK doesn't automatically give you British citizenship. You will be a citizen of the country your parents are citizens of!
