The Hindu : News / International : America regards ISI as “terrorist” organisation

The Hindu : News / International : America regards ISI as “terrorist” organisation: "Besides the ISI and the Al-Qaeda, the (terrorist) “associations” include the Egyptian Islamic Jihad led by Al-Qaeda's deputy chief Ayman al-Zawahiri; the Sabotage Battalion of Chechen Martyrs ; the Iranian intelligence services; the Hezbollah; the Hamas and the Muslim Brotherhood.

Observers said the disclosure that the ISI was seen in Washington as posing the same level of threat as the Al-Qaeda and the Taliban would infuriate Pakistan and was likely to further “damage” the already strained relationship between the two countries.

The document is among more than 700 leaked secret files containing details about the “inner workings” of the Guantanamo Bay detention camp including guidance for American interrogators on how to decide whether to continue to detain or release prisoners, according to The Guardian. The newspaper said though the document dated from 2007 it was “unlikely” the ISI had been removed from the current Threat Indicator Matrix."
