Headley's revelation befor FBI vindicates India viewpoint

David Coleman Headley has revealed before Federal Bureau of Investigations that serving Pak army officials are helping and working with Pakistan-based India specific terror outfits to execute their nefarious design on India. It may be new for FBI but it is well known to India. India has always been raising the voice of Pak involvement in carrying out mayhem through its terror brigades against it for a long time. It has been revealed during FBI interrogation that Coleman David Headley alias Daeood Gilani is a Lashkar operative and he was in the control room in Pakistan and guiding the terrorists executing their terror acts in Mumbai on 26/11,2008 through telephonic talks. It means that Headley and his associates Tanwaaur Hussain Rana and Illiash Kashmiri were the prime plotters at the instructions of LeT founder Jama-ud-Dawa Chief Sayed Hafiz of 26/11 with total support from some serving Pak officials. FBI is interrogating Headley and after his revelation that he was in control room and talking to terrorists in Mumbai on 26/11 is a matter to be taken seriously by the US. Indian intelligence agency has rightly sought voice sample of Headley to get it confirmed. The FBI interrogation of David Coleman Headley alias Daood Gilani has, for the first time, confirmed what India has always known that a section of serving Pakistan army officers” are working in collaboration with India-specific jihadi groups like LeT and JeM. It has been reported that this was revealed by Headley to his FBI interrogators in what is the first confirmation by an independent probe agency of the involvement of Pakistani army officers in planning and executing terrorist operations against India. The officials identified by Headley were working with Lashkar on ‘Karachi project’ as part of a larger campaign against India. This project involves using jihadi fugitives from India sheltered in Pakistan to draw in vulnerable Indian Muslim youth. The Indian intelligence agencies have also sent a well-prepared questionaire to FBI to ask Headley during their interrogation to peel off more beans on the incident and expose Pakistan before the world. Now, it is for the US to be convinced that Mumbai attacks were definitely carried out by Pakistan and as President Obama has already said in his new stragegy on Af-Pak that Afghanistan and Pakistan is the epicentre of terror, it must act against Pakistan without any loss of time. Though it is understandable that Pak being the nuclear power state it can not be so easy to invade it like it did in Afghanistan just after 9/11. But befor clearing Pakistan of terror and jehadi elements, it must first take seize of its nuclear custody and after clearing it of terror elements, it can handover in the hands of civilian rule in Pakistan. By doing that the US can also catch hold of its most prized target Osama bin Laden who is most probable in hiding in Pakistan. Because it is also clear that the present civilian rule of Pakistan is so weak that it can not the terror onslaught in the country and the day is not far off when the terror and jehadi elements with the help of Pakistan military establishment will take control of the government. If that happens and nuclear weapons come in their control, it would certainly be disastrous not only for Sounth Asia but also the entire world.
