From the New York Times:
Five young Muslim American men from the Washington suburbs who disappeared late last month were detained in Pakistan on Wednesday in a police raid on a house linked to a militant group, American and Pakistani officials said.
One of the men had left behind an 11-minute video calling for the defense of Muslims in conflicts with the West and suggesting that “young Muslims have to do something,” said one person who had seen the video, describing it as a farewell of sorts. Another person who viewed it called the video “disturbing,” though he said it was not a martyrdom video of the kind sometimes made by extremists planning suicide attacks.
A story like this makes me wonder how many other groups of young Muslim American men have traveled to Pakistan who weren’t stupid enough to leave a disturbing video behind when they left the United States.
No other place in the world is more dangerous to the United States than Pakistan. It’s the place Muslim terrorists go before they try to start trouble. The 911 terrorists all flew into Pakistan before traveling to Afghanistan. When they traveled to the United States, they all flew in from Pakistan. Pakistan was one of the few countries that recognized that Taliban as official government of Afghanistan.
Not only does Pakistan have nuclear weapons technology, the Pakistani scientist that developed Pakistan’s nuclear program, Abdul Qadeer Khan, reportedly worked with North Korea and other nations, assisting them in developing nuclear weapon technology.
