Quake-hit Hizb ceases fire

Syed Salahuddin of the terrorist group Hizb-ul-Mujahideen says the United Jehad Council, the umbrella organisation of terrorist groups operating in Jammu and Kashmir, will not execute any attack plans and instead help in rescue and relief in the quake-hit region.

Make no mistakes; he's not that humanitarian a soul. The truth is the earthquake has wiped out a large part of the terrorist infrastructure on the other side of the line of control. And his relief and rescue means rescuing the camps and giving relief to injured terrorists.

He won't accept it, but Lashkar-e-Tayyaba has. The Lashkar said yesterday that at least 100 of its militants perished in the earthquake.
