His group has been declared a terror organization by the U.S., but our friend and ally Pakistan lets him roam around freely, and even address a seminar at the Lahore High Court. Not a penny of U.S. aid should be going to Pakistan — but of course the jizya will keep flowing.
“Lashkar Founder Hafiz Saeed Spews Venom Against India and America,” Press Trust of India, July 11, 2014 (thanks to Lookmann):
Lahore: Just days after his organisation was declared a terror outfit by the US, Jamaat-ud-Dawah chief Hafiz Saeed, who orchestrated the 2008 Mumbai terror attacks, addressed a seminar at the Lahore High Court spewing venom on India and America.
This is the second time that Saeed, who is the founder of banned terror organisation Laskar-e-Taiba, has addressed lawyers and others within the court premises this year.
In May, Saeed, who roams around freely in Pakistan despite being a designated terrorist, was invited as chief guest at the Lahore High Court Bar Association, one of the premier bar associations in Pakistan.
At that time, the decision was opposed by a section of the lawyers.
Saeed addressed the seminar at the Lahore High Court building organised by the Pakistan Justice Party.
Tightening its noose around the Lashkar-e-Taiba (LeT), the US had last month added its affiliates, including the JuD to its list of designated terror organisations and slapped sanctions against two Pakistan-based LeT leaders.
The US State Department has amended Lashkar-e-Taiba’s designations to add its aliases: Jamaat-ud-Dawa, Al-Anfal Trust, Tehrik-e-Hurmat-e-Rasool and Tehrik-e-Tahafuz Qibla Awwal, an official statement had said.

Pakistan: Wanted jihad terrorist leads seminar at Lahore High Court
……………………………..
Well, this shows the depth of the commitment against Jihad terror by our “ally”, Pakistan…
But more: it is not just that Hafiz Saeed is wandering around openly—bad enough—but that he is an *honored guest* of the high court.
Only in Islam would a thug who launched an unprovoked terror attack against civilians in the nation’s peaceful neighbor be feted for his understanding *of the law*.
Of course, that law is bloody Shari’ah—so the understanding is different than it would be in any civilized nation…
The question is why we are *still* pretending that Pakistan is an “ally”—and why we are still forking over boatloads of foreign aid. Suicidal madness…
