We'd Like To Teach The World To Sing Jihad In Harmony ...
Well, that's a pretty alarming map, so let's do a little digging into the sources.

The website's put out by the Muttahida Jihad Council (MJC) which is an umbrella body of 17 Pakistani based terrorist groups. It was fostered by the ISI, according to some sources, including Yosef Bodansky.

According to Jane's , the group is Sunni/Wahhabi. They have alliances with the the Taliban, al-Qaida, Islamic Movement of Uzbekistan (IMU) and other international Islamist organisations. There are also some links with Sikh organisations, which Pakistan's Inter-Services Intelligence agency has brokered in the past.

India accuses Pakistan of heavily subsidising UJC groups, and also of providing the groups with training and equipment. However, the dependency of each group on Islambad varies. HuM and HM receive much of their income from religious charities, for instance, while JeM is almost wholly dependent upon Pakistan. Other funds for militants arrive from al-Qaida, sympathetic individual Pakistanis, Kashmiris who live overseas, drug trafficking, and religious foundations based in countries around the world

Another source says at least one of the 17 terrorist groups under the MJC umbrella also receives donations from sympathizers in Saudi Arabia and other Gulf and Islamic states and from Pakistanis and Kashmiris.

The source and amount of HUM's military funding are unknown. The organization may recieve an unknown amount of monetary support from Pakistan. It is a member of the United Jihad Council [Muttahida Jihad Council - MJC] set up in 1994 by Pakistan's Inter Services Intelligence agency. Among the other member organizations: Hizb-ul-Mujahideen, Jamiat-ul-Mujahideen, Al-Jihad, Al-Barq, Ikhwan-ul-Mussalmin, Tariq-ul-Mujahideen.

The MJC chairman Syed Salahuddin went to Saudi last month to perform Haj, and to meet with Syed Ali Shah Geelani, chairman of All Parties Hurriyat Conference (APHC) faction, who's now apparently living in Saudi. Supposedly, they discussed track-II diplomacy, the composite dialogue process and APHC’s reunification. (Track-ll diplomacy involves Track II diplomacy involves actors representing non-governmental organizations engaged in activity at the grassroots level and back channel measures. Track II diplomacy is important in maintaining support at the local level for negotiated agreements and terms to a peace settlement. APHC's an alliance of secessionist parties and leaders, as a political front to further the cause of Kashmiri separatism -- FB)

So that's the story of the group that put the map out. Well ... sort of ...

If you look at the green area on the original map, it pretty much includes the short term "reach" of Islamist groups, and the supporters that fund them. The smaller inset, which colors the whole world green represents some pretty wishful thinking -- but, it's wishful thinking that I think we should probably note.

The goal is stated plainly in stark block letters below the map:

RESULT
· ALL RESOURCES AVAILABLE IN ISLAMIC STATES.
·BIGGEST ARMY IN THE WORLD
· STRONGEST CURRENCY IN THE WORLD.
· LARGEST COUNTRY IN THE WORLD.
· ATOMIC & SUPER POWER COUNTRY.
· EUROPE & U.S.A. CAN NOT SEIZE ASSESTS IN FUTURE OF MUSLIM UMMAH (COMMUNITY)
· THE HEART OF GLOBE IN MUSLIM HAND.
· MORE THEN HALF POPULATION OF WORLD IN ISLAMIC STATE.

And, in case you're a little shakey on geography, here the countries to be included in the original green block:

ALBANIA
BANGLADESH
BOSINIA
BRUNEI
INDONESIA
MALAYSIA
MALDIVES

Of course, so much simpler in a hundred years when they think the entire world will turn Islamic green. Click here if you want to take a look at the website, and read about the plans.

Since 2001, I've noticed that alot of the Jihadi "literature" seems to represent wishful thinking; I wish I had a nickel for every time Zawahiri has threatened to make the streets of America run red with blood. Here in the west, we have our grandiose nutcases as well. However, the KKK, for example, is not widely funded on an international basis, and I can't think of any mainstream American Protestant Christians who'd shelter a skinhead, or praise him for murder. You don't see any American, or European moms, either, on videotape slapping a suicide belt on their kids.

So, let's remember this map. It may be wishful thinking, but there seem to be alot of people out there who wouldn't mind seeing it happen.
