The mountains between Pakistan and Afghanistan have been the "breeding ground" for terrorists intent on attacking the British since the days of the Raj.

MI5 and MI6 are convinced that Pashtun tribesmen are now sending ready-trained terrorists the other way under the cover of student visas.

Pakistan has its own problems, fanned by rivalries between politicians, the army and the Inter-Services Intelligence agency, which have left it unable to tackle the encroachment of the Taliban and their associates into Buner, 60 miles from Islamabad and from launching terrorist spectaculars at the very heart of the capital.

Their sights are set on taking over the country, as the attack on the Sri Lankan cricket team in Lahore, showed, and they already openly operate in the city of Quetta and have some freedom in Karachi and Peshawar.

Extremists find Pakistan terrorist training haven

PESHAWAR, Pakistan — The path to terrorist training in Pakistan is well worn — developed and maintained by established militant groups that have operated for decades. They are open to those — Americans included — with enough determination and savvy to navigate both the extremist networks and the dangerous borderlands.

Faisal Shahzad, the Pakistani-American charged in the failed Times Square bombing, is among those to make the journey, U.S. prosecutors allege. Five young American Muslims tried to link up with extremists with less success, officials say: They now face trial in Pakistan.

Footage of Muslim female terrorist training camps in Pakistan

The interesting thing about the video is that the reporters believe the Pakistan government and military are not only aware of these training camps but support and protect them.
