Harkat-Ul-Mujahidin, Jammu and Kashmir

  • A radical Islamic front for Pakistani ISI that is conducting war against the Government in Indian Kashmir.
  • This group supplied troops to Taliban and the al-Qaida network in Afghanistan. In the fall of Kabul Taliban were found with valid Pakistani identity documents and deployment orders from the Harkat-Ul-Mujahidin, Jammu and Kashmir.
  • "And enemy for the alliance these four young men appeared to be, judging by the documents they carried. Besides Pakistan identity documents - and even a wallet-sized shoe-care guide - they carried a deployment order written on letterhead from the "Harkat-Ul-Mujahidin, Jammu and Kashmir," a group of Islamic militants fighting Indian troops in Kashmir.

    "These four men are coming for jihad [holy war] to Afghanistan," the letter read. "Please help and facilitate them in their work." A note at the bottom, written with another hand, implored: "Help them join with yourselves."

    An even more curious document was a degree for a "diploma course" issued by the International Islamic Movement University, with an address in Islamabad, Pakistan. The director was named "Abu Osama," or "Father of Osama" - though it was not clear if there was any link to accused terrorist Osama Bin Laden or his al-Qaeda network."

After that I was able to discover two weaving instruments and two early mordants, one of them being a special clay containing iron sulfate and the other being animal urine. Such clay was used for many millennia in some religious baptism especially for women who wanted to dye their hair. Icom textiles working group. Newsletter

Hekmatyar, Gulbuddin

  • Gulbuddin Hekmatyar was a founder with Dr. Syed Burhanudin Rabbani of Ahkwan-ul-Muslimen in Afghanistan.Ahkwan-ul-Muslimen or al Ikwahn al Musilimeen is al-Qaeda also know as the Moslem Brotherhood. Control of the Moslem Brotherhood is now in the hands of Osama Bin Laden and the Saudi faction. Hekmatyar has thrown in with Osama Bin Laden. Sooner or later the US is going to have to root out the entire Moslem Brotherhood and stop trying to pick out the bad guys. Our enemy is the Moslem Brotherhood not al-Qaeda or some phantom group. It is the Moslem Brotherhood out in plain site and the trail leads straight to the Saudi Royal family. They all must become targets of opportunity. First we need a Hashemite Monarch in Iraq and then maybe one in Arabia.
  • Born 1947 in Ghazni of Ghilzai Pashtun parents.
  • Gulbuddin Hekmatyar was the worst of the Afghan Warlords. He hid most of the weapons that Pakistan and the CIA gave him to save them for the Civil War when the Russians left. He avoided the Russians as much as possible and left the heavy fighting to others. It seems from my sources that he accepted money from the KGB not to fight. He was very close to Osama Bin Laden and Pakistani ISI.
  • During the American war he has offered aid to the Taliban and has given them many of his arms caches including stinger missiles. Normally stingers would be a cause for alarm but the batteries are all expired and they won't fire unless they are rewired which seems to be a little difficult for terrorists. A few years ago someone got one of them to fire at a aircraft in the Persian Gulf. It stuck in the fuselage without exploding
  • Hekmatyar's No. 2 man Ustad Manghal Hussain has been negotiating with the Taliban to merge his Hezb-i-Islami group with Taliban in the war against America.
  • Hekmatyar started as an Islamic radical in his two years at Kabul University when he was leader of Ahkwan-ul-Muslimen (Muslims' Brotherhood) a group which would throw acid into the faces of unveiled women.
  • In 1969 Gulbuddin Hekmatyar and Dr. Syed Burhanudin Rabbani founded the radical group Ahkwan-ul-Muslimen in Afghanistan. Members included Abdul Rasul Sayyaf.
  • Strong links to the Moslem Brotherhood.
