...British lawyer Anjem Choudary, 40, a British passport means very little. For a true Muslim, he says, "a British passport is no more than a travel document." Abu Yahya, 26, a Londoner and veteran of military training camps in Kashmir and Afghanistan, agrees: "Our allegiance is solely to Allah and his messenger, not to the Queen and country. Nationality...means nothing...
...remaking the world order sounds difficult, it is. But look at what’s already on our plate. To win the war against terrorism, we first have to solve the Israel-Palestine conflict and settle the 50-year-old crisis in Kashmir.

Dialogue is important, but it only works if fanatics and terrorists are removed from the equation...
...INDIA Disputed Territory They may be allies in the fight against terrorism, but India and Pakistan are confronting each other over the disputed territory of Kashmir. The two countries traded artillery fire across the border, and at least 11 people died in clashes between Indian security forces and Islamic militants last week. In one incident, four armed men from the Lashkar-e-Tayyaba separatist group were killed at an Indian air base near Srinagar...
