Another very relevant article on Pakistan-generated terrorism by Thomas L. Friedman in the New York Times.
Who in the Muslim world, who in
Pakistan, is ready to take to the streets to protest the mass murders
of real people, not cartoon characters, right next door in Mumbai,
India?
A very relevant excerpt:
Pakistan, is ready to take to the streets to protest the mass murders

India?
A very relevant excerpt:
After all, if 10 young Indians from a splinter wing of the Hindu nationalist Bharatiya Janata Party traveled by boat to Pakistan, shot up two hotels in Karachi and the central train station, killed at least 173 people, and then, for good measure, murdered the imam and his wife at a Saudi-financed mosque while they were cradling their 2-year-old son — purely because they were Sunni Muslims — where would we be today? The entire Muslim world would be aflame and in the streets.
So what can we expect from Pakistan and the wider Muslim world after Mumbai? India says its interrogation of the surviving terrorist indicates that all 10 men come from the Pakistani port of Karachi, and at least one, if not all 10, were Pakistani nationals.
