On day a when US President Donald Trump blasted Pakistan for not doing enough against terrorists, Jamaat-ud-Dawah (JuD) chief and 26/11 Mumbai attack mastermind Hafiz Saeed was seen calling for Jihad against the US.

At a rally in Lahore, Saeed invited all Islamic states to launch 'Jihad' against the United States and Israel on Monday.

Hundreds of JuD activists participated in a rally 'Tahafuz Baitul Muqaddas' at the Istanbul Chowk. The event was attended by JuD leaders, including Hafiz Saeed and Abdul Rehman Makki.

The event was conducted in the wake of the US President Donald Trump-led administration unilaterally identifying and declaring Jerusalem as the capital of Israel.
The Lashkar-e-Taiba (LeT) co-founder, while addressing the gathering, said, 'The day Jerusalem (Bait-ul-Muqaddas) becomes the capital of Israel, a caravan of 'Jihad' will be launched. Pakistan's army chief General (Qamar Javed) Bajwa, Prime Minister Shahid Khaqan Abbasi and all leaders of the political parties need to unite.'

'Pakistan's atomic bomb is the asset of Islam, which should be used to free Jerusalem. This is my open announcement.'

He added, 'We should organise an Islamic conference to be attended by chiefs of the Islamic states to declare 'Jihad'. The influence of the ISIS will weaken and the conspiracy of the United States against Islam and holy war (Jihad) will come to an end.'

The United Nations- and US-designated terrorist was recently released from house arrest after a Pakistani court cited lack of evidence against him in the Mumbai attack case.

Abdul Rehman Makki, the second in-command of the JuD, said: ?May Allah almighty willing this 'Ghazwa-e-Hind' (Battle of Hind) and 'Ghazwa-e-Saleeb' (Battle of Christianity) will continue and this conference had pledged and promised they would wage jihad for Palestine like JuD had been waging Jihad in Kashmir."

Hafiz Saeed, who formed Milli Muslim League (MML), is planning to contest the 2018 general elections in Pakistan.

India has protested against Pakistan time and again for harbouring Saeed. He is wanted for allegedly plotting the Mumbai attacks that took place on November 26, 2008.
