This is John Batchel, a conversation with colleague Bill Rajo about the exchange of missile and long-range ballistic missile fire between Pakistan and India several weeks past about Kashmir, but about a terror attack by Lashiri Taiba.

Is there any question about Lashgari Taiba and its sponsorship?

Is there any question about Lashgari Taiba and its refuge inside Pakistan?

Bill makes it very clear there is no confusion, there is no hesitation.

Here's Bill Rajah to declare.

India is saying, our

defense of India left six Lashkar-Yiba, KIA. Who are they, who do they report to?

Who do they work for? Here's Bill Raggio. Much more of this later. Yeah, you know,

there was some, there was at least in the case of the one last Gary Tiber leader,

there was a funeral service, but I didn't see any reports.

Well, actually, that last great title leader, he, he, he, what, they did announce his death,

but I didn't see anything for the others.

It's possible that it was out there, but I haven't seen it.

But like you said, these are more established terrorist organizations than terrorist groups that are operating.

I mean, they have the backing of the Pakistani state. They're permitted to operate within Pakistan.

So they don't operate quite like al-Qaeda or the Islamic State does. They're not to operate within Pakistan. So they don't operate quite like Al Qaeda or the

Islamic State does. They're not operating clandestinely. It's just not that, you know, they're,

again, this is why Pakistan is, in my estimation, is state sponsor of terrorism.
