#9 "after forcing their way through several roadblocks" .. So I can maybe understand being able to blast through 1 roadblock, but all those downstream should have been alerted to what was inbound and ready to act accordingly. this smells....

#11 Maulana Sufi Muhammad is one of the founder of Tehreek Nafaz-e-shariat-e-Mohammadi(PBUH). Western parts of North-West Frontier Province (NWFP) are gradually coming under the grip of religious radicalism. People in Malakand and Swat districts, populated mainly by the Yousafzai Pashtun tribe, have been gathering in public places to burn personal electronics equipment such as television sets, tape recorders, VCRs, computers, CDs and other musical equipment. The significance of this development is that it has been motivated by the religious sect Tehreek-e-Nafaz-e-Shariat-e-Mohammadi(TNSM), the Movement for the Enforcement of Islamic Laws.

Watch Islamo COPS: HUH Bad Burkas.. Bad Burkas.. whatcha wont.. whatcha wont.. Bad Burkas.. whatcha wont.. whatcha gonna do when we come for you...

Maulana Sufi Muhammad encouraged and organized thousands of people to fight against the Northern Alliance in Afghanistan at the time of the downfall of the Taliban in 2001. Most of his mujahideen were killed or arrested by the Northern Alliance and only a few were able to return to Pakistan, including Maulana Sufi Mohammad. The Pakistani government immediately arrested him and for the past five years he has languished in jail. Locals argue that thousands of mujahideen were killed as a result of Sufi Mohammad's incompetence and lack of combat skills.
LOL, a genius!

As a result, Sufi Mohammad lost much of his support. Additionally, TNSM members have been killed and regularly arrested by Pakistani authorities, reducing the organization's effectiveness. TNSM has been almost completely dormant in its stronghold of Swat and the adjoining areas. Recently, however, this situation has changed.

Oct. 25, 2001 , Tehrik Nafaz Shariat-e-Muhammadi( TNSM = the Movement for the Enforcement of Islamic Laws) has decided to send the first batch of volunteers for Jihad to Afghanistan against the US and its allies today (Thursday) to be headed by Malik Mahmud Jan. The Tehrik amir Maulana Sufi Muhammad will also accompany the group.

Addressing an armed protest rally against US-led air strikes on Afghanistan, Maulana Sufi Muhammad said Jihad is mandatory on Muslims as America has launched a war on Afghans and killing innocent people in the guise of campaign against terrorism. He said it was a war between Islam and the infidels.

wow, give that tactical genius high marks for originality, he sure has a knack for getting his own Losers killed, I say release him from club Pak and let the killing commence.
