Bangalore terror suspect wanted to target US
There is a huge effort at rationalising the Islamic
terrorism, on the basis that the Koran does not sanction
it. I have always maintained that there is no point in
telling this interpretation of the Koran to those who are
the victims (or potential victims) of the terrorism. The
ones who have to be told are the terrorists and they are
the ones who have to be convinced. This article clearly
shows that this supposedly benign interpretation of the
Koran is not accepted by the terrorists.

Intorduction: A senior IPS officer narrates an argument he
had with Ghouse on jihad. When the officer pointed out that
Islam shuns violence, Ghouse is supposed to have said:
"Jihad is a holy struggle in the name of Allah." The
officer says: "After half an hour, I gave up because I
realized it would be impossible to convince him."
Suspected terrorist Riyazuddin Nasir alias Mohammed Ghouse
wanted to visit the United States and spread terror there,
he has told interrogators.
Since it was difficult to gain entry into the US, Ghouse
had twice pleaded with terrorist leaders to at least send
him to Iraq to work as a fidayeen - an extremist who equips
himself with arms and ammunition and strikes a target,
causing mass destruction.
However, the terrorist leaders persuaded him to drop the
idea as they thought "there is so much to do in India".
Ghouse, who was well informed about post-9/11 incidents,
grudged the American invasion of Iraq and Afghanistan.
Investigations have revealed that Ghouse visited Mecca
thrice for umrah (a pilgrimage undertaken during the non-
Haj season), on a family passport that had a validity of 10
years up to December 2006.
He first visited Mecca as a child in 1996. In 2005, during
his second trip, he met Abdul Samad, brother of South
India's most wanted terrorist, Shahid Bilal, and reportedly
expressed his willingness to go to Iraq as a fidayee to
fight American forces.
However, his plan did not materialize. In 2006, Samad got
Ghouse a fake passport and sent him to Pakistan. While
undergoing training there, Ghouse again expressed his
keenness to go to Iraq. But Bilal stopped him.
After Ghouse completed his training in Pakistan - from May
2006 to January 2007 - he was sent to India through the
Nepal border with a mission: indulge in subversion and
disturb peace.
Besides use of arms and explosives, Ghouse was trained in
operating computers, reading and drawing maps, sketching
and horse riding. "He has a graphic memory and is very
quick in drawing maps," a police officer says.
Eastern range IGP H N Satyanaraya Rao says the local police
have had a tough time extracting information from him. "He
is a good catch, but a tough nut to crack. To question a
terrorist, we need specialized agencies. The limited
expertise of the local police has become a limitation. To
extract one bit of information from him, we have to ask him
100 questions."
Ghouse had planned to blast the Andhra Pradesh police
headquarters in Hyderabad. The arrest of his father and
brother, and the case booked against him by the Hyderabad
police, made a teenage Ghouse drop out of college and take
the path of jihad.
A senior IPS officer narrates an argument he had with
Ghouse on jihad.
When the officer pointed out that Islam shuns violence,
Ghouse is supposed to have said: "Jihad is a holy struggle
in the name of Allah."
The officer says: "After half an hour, I gave up because I
realized it would be impossible to convince him."
Ghouse and his associate Asadullah Abubaker, who were
arrested in Davanagere district on charges of terrorism,
are in police custody.
