"We will carry banners requesting President Barack Obama to declare Pakistan a terrorist state; stop Iran from making nuclear weapons; stop Saudi Arabia from funding terrorism; stop Pakistan’s double game with USA; seize Saudi Arabian assets for crimes against humanity; stop repeat of Mumbai terror attack anywhere in the world; and that nuclear Pakistan is a threat to the whole world," Kataria added.
"Since radical Islam, political Islam, jihad and terrorism have assumed an alarmingly dangerous worldwide proportion, it is absolutely essential that the US, the only Super Power of the world, under the presidency of Barack Obama should take a lead in exterminating terrorism from the face of Earth. We believe that this could be an appropriate occasion for us to draw the attention of the media to the menace of radical Islamic terrorism," the release concluded
