`US should not differentiate India`s war on terror`: Gilman
The United States should not differentiate between India`s fight against terrorism and U S efforts to bring Osama bin Laden and his al Qaeda network to justice, Congressman Benjamin Gilman has said.
"The two Pakistani Islamic terrorist groups that have murdered thousands of innocent Indians in Kashmir for many years are the same organisations which have recruited, housed, trained and dispatched fighters to Afghanistan to support the Taliban and bin Laden," the statement said and added "These groups should be treated in the same manner in which we implement our war against terrorism."
Urging the Bush administration to actively assist India to weed out terror, Gilman said "Subsequent to the barbaric attack on September 11, India promptly made every facility available to our armed forces for support against our war against bin Laden, the Taliban, and Al Qaeda. In the same manner, we should be assisting our Indian allies in their war against terrorism".
