While al-Qaeda is recognized across the globe as perhaps the world’s most dangerous terrorist organization, far fewer people are aware of Lashkar-e-Taiba, a complex organization that has grown to become the most feared terrorist group operating in Kashmir, India and Pakistan.

The Âé¶¹¹û¶³´«Ã½ Foundation’s National Security Studies Program held a discussion with Stephen Tankel, author of the recently published book Storming the World Stage: The Story of Lashkar-e-Taiba, on whether the group is poised to replace al-Qaeda and lead the global jihad.
