9/11 and the "American Inquisition"

19-09-2008 11:39 | Anti-militarism | Repression | Terror War | World

the "state sponsors" of terrorism.

Terror attacks in India are not a new phenomenon, however, in their recent past, they can be largely attributed to the actions, finances, training and resources of one organization: The Pakistani Inter-Services Intelligence (ISI). These new bombings bare the same relationship with the ISI as has occurred in the past, and so it must be asked: what is the purpose of the ISI both in Central Asia as well as South Asia?
