The 26/11 attack had all the markings of a state sponsored attack with plausible deniability build into it as expected. The evidence by Kasab, Headley and this Hamza guys have only reinforced this.
The attack on GHQ, PNS Mehran and the various police academies had 'all the markings of State Sponsored attacks' - so, given your argument of 'markings' are you willing to accept Indian State complicity in those terrorist attacks?
This is as good an evidence as it can get. Now you may keep on claiming torture or whatever, both Headley and Hamza have implicated Pakistani military and ISI directly.
All the two of them have done is claim that 'Major XYZ' as supposedly interacting with them - pretty much everyone accepts that an intelligence agency operative would not provide rank, name or identify the organization he/she worked for, so for all we know, these individuals were using false identities, or might have been former military personnel - none of the above suggest ISI/PA complicity in the Mumbai attacks.
This is the closest to a smoking gun you are going to get in this dirty business of mindlessly killing innocents of other countries by Pakistani terrorists.
Nope, not even close to a smoking gun - speculation is all it is.
He was no ordinary pickpocket kind of criminal. I understand why you don't consider it unusual.
And he took precautions (such as never venturing out of the compound he was hiding in for years and refraining from all electronic communication) that an ordinary pickpocket would not, making it possible for him to remain in hiding till pieces
After all, OBL also didn't consider it unusual to choose Pakistan in the whole wide world for a sanctuary! There was a reason for it.
Sure, the reason was common sense - Pakistan was the closest country to Afghanistan when it was invaded by the US, where he had extensive contacts with various militant groups and former officials who had worked with him during the anti-Soviet Jihad. It is a country with weak institutions, especially law enforcement and a huge population which afforded him an excellent opportunity to stay hidden.
You just have to open your eyes. The evidence is all around you.
The only thing all around me is paranoia and Pakistan bashing based on prejudice and speculation.
If you choose not to focus on the discrepancies in "Indian media reporting" rather than the real issue, you may even see it.
Even if you ignore the discrepancies in the reporting by the Indian media, the flaws in the so called 'evidence' are as pointed out above.
I understand you need some more evidence. Just wait for some more time and keep an open mind and eyes and ears. We have not seen the end of it by any means.
And in the mean time, please accept that making outlandish accusations based on utter nonsense does not constitute 'keeping an open mind' or being 'objective'.
I think it is fairly obvious that if India is trying to get a terror convict and Pakistan is trying to stop that by calling him its own national, it is not as innocent as you make it out to be.
Again, we have no credible account of what happened, whether Pakistan lobbied against the deportation, why the did so if they did it, whether they stopped once the identity of the man in question was established etc. All these details have relevance and they add context to the actions, if any, that any particular party might have taken.
The issue still remains. It was near a Pakistani military establishment. Such control rooms can't be run in a large city without official sanction.
Sure, and both GHQ and the Mehran base were assaulted and under siege for hours by terrorists, so obviously, in a city of 20 million plus, mere proximity means nothing. And what exactly was so special about this 'control room'? As far as I can tell, it involved a group of people with internet access, cell phones and some televisions. How is that some sort of a 'super special control room'? You make it sound like its a NASA Moon Launch Control Center.
Nonsensical?
I see that you probably think it is your patriotic duty to deflect and obfuscate as much as possible and even when its no longer possible.
If you stop Pakistan bashing for a moment and get rid of the 'foreign invaders conquered bharat matta' complex, you'll realize that the arguments you are offering up as 'evidence of ISI/PA complicity' are nothing but speculative garbage.
Obfuscation and denial is not patriotism. Antiseptic "patriotism" from ten thousand miles is no patriotism.
Right, as usual, return to ad hominems when all else fails. Questioning my patriotism or location does not change the facts, pointed out above, that your arguments/evidence are flawed, speculative and far from credible.
yes I am sure it is just another great conspiracy, multiple newspapers in the middle east, India, USA and Europe all saying the same thing. Quoting Indian, Saudi and US sources is just a ruse to confuse people.
The reminds me of all the pakistani claims for years, "OBL is not in Pakistan"
Multiple papers regurgitating the same source.
More like 'reminds me of all the Western papers claiming evidence that Iraq had WMD's'...
