  Four suicide bombers, at least three of them British, were responsible for the explosions that killed more than 50 people in London, senior security sources said last night.
  
  The three were all thought to be of Pakistani ethnic origin and said by neighbours to have lived modest suburban lives in West Yorkshire.
  
  ungrateful pakis.................they should return to their flea infested land if they are not happy living in UK.....

  UK is a multicultural society. The people who carry British passports come from all over the world.

  So sad, was in UK and noticed that Pakis, whether recent arrivals or 3rd Gen all have this twisted loyalty.
  
  When its sports or culture, they are always "Pakistiani" and are more boastful than any other race about their mother culture.
  
  Yet they are the first to scream and shout about their right under british law and fierce about their freedom of speech. I'd say if you want to associated with your grandfather's hometown, stay there, don't go somewhere else and try so hard to recreate your mud village in North England.
  
  So sad when kids think this is but a game (many do)

  Hi All,
  
  this is topic not relevant to military nuts. In any case, let's not get racist here. Though I agree that these people should return to their home land if they are not happy with their adopted land.

  Not likely in EU member states, including UK. After all, Spain has no wish to bring back capital punishment because of a handful of Moroccan idiots. In fact, any entity seeking EU membership has to revamp its penal code and make death penalty history.

  Terror equated with military?
  
  And the view is rather racist. The bombers may be of Pakistan origin but they are first and foremost British subjects, but the empahsis of the posts suggests that people of Pakistan has something to do with this incident and can be deemed as racist in nature.

  Pakistan intelligence probes links with London bombers
  
  ISLAMABAD : Pakistan's intelligence services have launched a probe into possible links between the London bombers and extremist groups in the South Asian nation, security officials said.
  
  "Britain has not so far conveyed specific information here from its ongoing investigation, but we are looking for possible links on our own," a top security official told AFP on condition of anonymity.
  
  British police have confirmed the attacks that killed at least 52 people on London's transport network last week were the work of suicide bombers. Three of the blasts appear to have been perpetrated by British Muslims of Pakistani origin.
  
  One of them, Shehzad Tanweer, 22, from Leeds, northern England, studied at a religious school in Pakistan for two months earlier this year, his family was reported as saying, while newspapers said another also travelled to Pakistan.
  
  Pakistani officials, however, played down the role any such visits might have played, saying it was more likely the bombers had been cultivated by a terror organisation in Britain.
  
  "While it is possible one or two of them may have been religiously motivated by elements in Pakistan, we have a strong feeling that they were recruited and trained inside Britain for the suicide acts," said the security official, based in the eastern city of Lahore.
  
  Pakistan's Interior Minister Aftab Sherpao said Wednesday that Islamabad had provided London with information that helped it foil terrorist attacks in the run up to the May general elections.
  
  He declined to say whether Britain had asked for information from Pakistan in relation to the London attacks.
  
  The security official said Islamabad had also informed London last year when they obtained information about an active British Al-Qaeda cell that was headed by the alleged head of the network in Britain, Abu Eisa al-Hindi.
  
  "On the basis of that information the British government was able to arrest around eight to 10 activists and then there was little or no exchange of information about their fate," he said.
  
  "According to our information that group was planning Kamikaze attacks in Britain in and around Heathrow airport."
  
  Pakistan's foreign ministry would not say if Islamabad had received any specific request from the British government to investigate the suspected bombers' ties to Pakistan.
  
  "As far as Pakistan is concerned, we are cooperating with the British government on counter-terrorism efforts. Our cooperation is on a continuous basis," spokesman Jalil Abbas Jilani told AFP.
  
  "We have intelligence sharing mechanism with more than 48 countries including the UK and Pakistan will fully cooperate with Britain and other countries in fighting this menace."
  
  Clandestine militant groups in Britain have been broadening their support and also channelling funds secretly to sympathisers in Pakistan, according to Pakistani security analysts.
  
  Experts point out that Hizbul Tehreer, a group espousing revival of a so-called caliphate based on early Islamic history, emerged in Britain more than a decade ago.
  
  The group has been banned in many Muslim countries and the group was placed on the US terror watch list following the September 11, 2001 attacks on the United States. - AFP /ch

  Malaysia is replacing Indon foreign workers with Pakistanis.
  
  I wonder what the long term impact would be.
  
  Will these fellers bring their Paki-ideology with them? Will they marry local women and take over UMNO by the next generation? Will they bring their Shia islamic thinking over to this region?
  
  All these will have an impact on Msia-Spore relations.

  Pakis are Shi'ite? Not all of them. The Pashtuns are Sunnis, like their Taliban counterparts.

  My little Islam knowledge where I read from news etc.
  
  Shia = Shiiite, same thing different spelling.
  
  Shia and Sunni are two branch of Islam , and they have been at odds at eachother even fighting eachother as in Pakistan & Iraq etc.
  
  Then there is this new radical Sunni Wahabism Islam which was the basis of teaching for the AQ.
  
  And even in Muslim world, there are Turk against Kurds, and Arab against Kurds, and also the Arabs(Sunni) against Persians(Shiite) in the 8 years Iraq/Iran.
  
  Even without Jews into the mix , ME will still have many conflicts among them.
  
  Indon and Malaysian are mostly Sunni, but there are other of course that goes into other branch, I believe MY once banned Shiite teaching in MY.

  Shi'ite teaching may be banned, but Iranians living in Malaysia are alowed to practice their own brand of Islam within their community, if I'm not wrong.
  
  As for the Malays, they are strict Sunnis and can only marry no more than four wives. Shi'ites, on the other hand, have this clause permitting temporary marriages. THis allows them to have more than four (permanent) wives.
