India :
More than a decade before last month’s attacks in Mumbai, fighters from Lashkar-e-Taiba showed up here, turning this pine-ringed village in the Indian-administered part of Kashmir into a lair that became known as “the cat’s attic.”

Islamophobia prevents the media in the West to take sides with the terrorists in Kashmir in the post 9/11 period. But habits die hard. The New York Times which published fabricated stories such as mass rape in Kunan-Poshpora, twin hamets in Kupwara district in 1992, do not have guts to tender public apology for its lapse and rape of the sacred principal of journalism to report only truth.

There is nothing new in the present report. The difference is of perception. In 1992-1093 the West wished that India is harassed but now the same west, having tasted the terrorism on its own soil, have coined another falsification i.e. Islamophobia. Is it not unfair to brand the entire community terrorists. Do we call terrorists in the west as Christian terrorists then why do we prefer to call terrorists from Pakistan, Afghanistan or a Mideast country as Islamist or Muslim terrorists?

nobody is saying so...
and this report is about how people are getting fed up with stupid jingoism...why do you have a problem with that?

the term islamic terrorism is used to describe the overall phenomenon because those people use that religion to justify their act....
now don’t say that LTTE is hindu terrorist...they don’t fight for religion but for their ethnic group...
