Pakistan Funding a Jihad School to the Tune of £2Million.

"The Messenger & those who believe with him, strive hard & fight with their wealth & lives in Allah's Cause." So Allah, the somewhat unhygienic & spittle-saturated rock idol in Mecca, tells his benighted devotees, in verse 9:88 of his repulsive Koran.

Fighting with one's wealth means, of course, funding terrorism in our modern parlance & we see instances of 'British' citizens collecting funds for the Islamic State all the time in our courts, usually by criminal means. Who would have thought that our 'ally' Pakistan would do the same, however?

Answer: anyone who knew anything at all about that revolting, desolate & corrupt fiefdom. Since its thoroughly un-immaculate conception in 1947, Pakistan has not gone one year without relying upon foreign donations for its sustenance.

Now, 300Million rupees of that foreign aid, or £2Million at the current exchange rate of 152.5 rupees of their Micky Mouse money to our pound, has been dedicated to the running of a 'University of Jihad'. With British aid to Pakistan running at £400Million per annum, this is your money paying for this, a fact not dwelled upon in this report from the Times of India on Sunday (hat-tip to The Religion of Peace):

Pakistan grants Rs 300 million to madrassa linked to Afghan Taliban

Pakistan's Khyber-Pakhtunkhwa government has allocated Rs 300 million in its budget to a madrassa known as the 'University of Jihad' and having top Afghan Taliban leaders among its alumni, including its former chief Mullah Omar.

"I am proudly announcing that Darul Uloom Haqqania Nowshera will get Rs 300 million to meet its annual expenditures," Khyber-Pakhtunkhwa Minister Shah Farman told the Khyber Pakhtunkhwa Assembly this week.

He said the Imran Khan-led Pakistan Tehreek-e-Insaaf (PTI) government in Khyber-Pakhtunkhwa was not raiding and targeting religious institutions but has been cooperating and providing financial assistance to it.

The madrassa in Akora Khattak in Nowshera district of the province is known for having several top Afghan Taliban leaders among its alumni, including former Taliban chief Mullah Omar who received an honorary doctorate from the seminary.

Haqqani Network founder Jalaluddin Haqqani, Al-Qaeda in the Indian Subcontinent leader Asim Umar and slain Afghan Taliban chief Mullah Akhtar Mansoor, who was killed in a US drone strike last month, were among alumni of the seminary which is dubbed as the 'University of Jihad'.

When asked about such a big chunk of financial assistance to a single seminary, minister for religious affairs Habibur Rehman said that chief minister Pervez Khattak had promised to Haqqania madrassa's administration financial assistance of Rs 150 million which was adjusted in the Auqaf fund this year, the News International reported.

"Darul Uloom Haqqania is one of the oldest and largest seminaries of Pakistan and it deserves financial assistance," Rehman, who belongs to Jamaat-i-Islami, was quoted as saying by the paper.

Rehman said that Rs 150 million would be provided to the madrassa in 2016-17 while the remaining amount would be given to it next year.

Founded in 1947, the Islamic seminary is currently headed by Maulana Sami ul Haq, the leader of Jamiat Ulema-e-Islam. He also serves as the chairman of the Difa-e-Pakistan Council, an umbrella coalition of more than 40 groups, including Hafeez Saeed-led Jamat-ud-Dawa (JuD) and the banned Sipah-e-Sahaba.
