Surprise, surprise. We here at Report on Arrakis said last week that it was most likely the ISI, the Pakistani secret service, trained the Mumbai terrorists.
Now the US is providing India and Pakistan with evidence that former top officials of the ISI trained the terrorists. Dinah Lord also has a post showing that the Mumbai terrorists had Heckler & Koch MP5s which only the Pakistani military has access to within Pakistan.
This is what is considered an "ally" these days, a terrorist supporting nation. The AustralianUS intelligence agencies have determined that retired officers of the Pakistan army and Inter-Services Intelligence spy agency helped train the Islamic terrorists who attacked Mumbai.
The disclosure came as Washington yesterday sent the names of four former top officials of the ISI to the UN to be placed on a Security Council list of international terrorists.
Reports from Pakistan yesterday said the former ISI director-general Hamid Gul - appointed to the post when assassinated leader Benazir Bhutto was prime minister - had confirmed his name was included on the list the US had sent to UN Secretary-General Ban Ki-moon.
The US is calling on Pakistan to arrest and turn over to India at least some suspects in the Mumbai outrage, but Pakistan was unlikely to oblige amid escalating tensions between the nuclear-armed South Asian neighbours.

Hey Kyros -
Here with a red face. It looks like that pic of the H&K was cropped and might not represent the terrorists weapons as alleged in the original Anatreptic site. The HKpro website (www.hkpro.com) has done some additional sleuthing and revealed the AP photo showed Indian anti terror forces nearby in the shot.
It wouldn't surprise me though, if this was the way evidence was treated at the scene and if you look closely you can see red marks on the guns. Bloody fingerprints? Fingerprint powder? Who knows. I do still believe that ISI and the Pakistani Army were involved in the attack.
Just thought I better clear this up over here since you were kind enough to link to it.
Cheers - Dinah
