"Lashkar-e-Taiba, which is the primary suspect in the serial bomb blasts in New Delhi, has close links with the global terrorist outfit Al-Qaida, besides Palestinian terrorist outfit Hamas. Though banned, it has not only managed to execute its violent activities but also succeeded in working in tandem with al-Qaeda and Hamas, according highly-placed sources in Intelligence Bureau. 'We have strong inputs that the cadres, ammunition and funds are shared by al-Qaeda with LeT,' a top intelligence officer told TOI.
According to a senior state police officer, Lashkar is a sister or an ally of al-Qaeda because ideologically and nature wise they are alike. Both seek rule of Nizam-e-Mustafa in the world. Lashkar, according to the intelligence sources was born out of the forces that fought in Afghanistan against Russians in 1980s.
The success in Afghanistan gave the confidence to Pakistan that it had the expertise to create terrorists and it was in 1983 alone that Markaz-e-Dawa-ul-Irshad set up its terrorist wing Lashkar-e-Taiba to establish pan-Islamic rule in the world. " [Snippet]
