India: The British Connection

Two British-born Pakistanis were among eight gunmen seized by Indian commandos who stormed buildings to free hostages, Vilasrao Deshmukh, the chief minister of Mumbai, reportedly said.

The Foreign Office earlier said it was investigating reports on NDTV, a local television news channel, that the terrorists - who swarmed luxury hotels and other tourist sites in the city - included "British citizens of Pakistani origin".

The development came as Gordon Brown called for international co-ordination to combat terrorism in the wake of the attacks. He said: "We have got to look at how international action against terrorism can be improved."

On the claim that Britons could have been among the perpetrators, he said: "I would not want to be drawn into early conclusions about this.

"Obviously when you have terrorists operating in one country, they may be getting support from another country or coming from another country, and it is very important that we strengthen the co-operation between India and Britain in dealing with these instances of terrorist attacks."



As soon as this bit of information became known, and I mean 'as soon as' it became known, the details traveled to Brown - wherever he was and whatever he was doing. Having been informed, he called MI5 chief and the head of the Met - and demanded to know what they knew about the individuals named. Those files may well be shredded by this time.

It would not look very good having a file and surveillance on someone, and those individuals went and killed 120+ people.

This is not a matter of innocent until proven guilty - these are not simple bank robbers or thugs - they are on a messianic course with an intent and desire that cannot be assuaged by law and order, fear of prison or punishment. THEY WANT TO DIE.

The answer is very clear, the issue is clear, the problem is screaming out each day - justice. No one wants people incarcerated in Guantanamo, so they say 'release them' and how do you do that - just release them into the general population in prison or free them completely?

If you free them, they will get on planes and kill thousands of people - Americans included.

Who then is responsible?

In this war on Islamo-fascism, you are not dealing with some stupid fool who robbed a bank and deserves a sentence and then freedom when he is finished serving his sentence. You are not dealing with someone who wants to be part of any society, he is not interested in becoming or being a useful member of society. You are dealing with people who wish to destroy the very fabric that holds society together. Individuals who engage in, or are caught assisting, or engaging in acts of terrorism, or support for terrorism, or aiding and sheltering terrorists, are not entitled to the protections that a bank robber may enjoy. When we realize this, we can protect ourselves. Until then, these people will wander freely in London, watched by the Met, but not stopped when they head to Pakistan where they will take part in a murderous rampage of terror and death.

Moral responsibility falls on the British, for at least two of these murderers.

How much responsibility falls upon the public who are quick to condemn places like Guantanamo, who demand these 'people' be released - as if these people were simply strolling along eating croissants when they were picked up by American soldiers who were not interested in truth, facts, or reality. All or nearly all of those picked up committed an act that got them collected. That act was not spitting on the sidewalk, nor was it simply shouting praises to Allah for the deaths of Americans - it included, in most cases, active participation in activities designed to harm innocent people.

When you wake up and realize that they must be held to a standard much higher than the standard for a foolish loser who robs a bank, we can begin to win this war against Ismao-fascism. Until then, we will continue losing and thousands of innocent mothers, fathers, children - will be murdered in the streets.
