A JIHADI QUIZ

INTERNATIONAL TERRORISM MONITOR: PAPER NO.549

B.RAMAN

Of all the jihadi terrorist organisations of Pakistan, there is one which has never been banned either by the Government of Pakistan or designated by the US State Department as a Foreign Terrorist Organisation (FTO) or banned by the Governments of the European Union Countries or by the anti-terrorism sanctions committee of the UN Security Council.


2.Of all the jihadi terrorist organisations of Pakistan, there is one whose assets and bank accounts have never been sought to be frozen either by Pakistan or by the US or by the EU or by the UNSC Committee.


3.Of all the jihadi terrorist leaders of Pakistan, there is one who has not been sought to be declared as a terrorist by the anti-terrorism sanctions committee of the UNSC because this subject was not taken up by the US.


4. Which is that terrorist organisation and who is that terrorist leader? You find the answers to those questions and you will be able to make a fairly reasonable guess as to how the US managed to direct a Drone strike at the house of the father of the second wife of Baitullah Mehsud, the Amir of the Tehrik-e-Taliban Pakistan , in South Waziristan on August 5,2009, in which Baitullah was reported to have been
killed.


5. I have written repeatedly and extensively about this organisation and its leader. I am not going to say anything more.


6. It is for you to find the answers. (22-8-09)

I guess it is the ISI of Pakistan. only ISI could have been able to find out whereabouts of its fellow terrorists to the accuracy coordinates and time.

Harkat-ul-Jihad-al-Islami and its leader Saifullah Akhtar?

Raman Sir has already explained it in the next article -- HuJI and Saifullah Akhtar. My question is whether Bangladesh HuJI is tightly connected to Pakistani HuJI, because many terrorist attacks in India while the BNP was in power in Bangladesh was carried out by HuJI cadre. They were obviously poorly trained as their attacks mostly failed, except for the Mumbai train bombings.
