Abstract: This article profiles the Lashkar-e-Taiba, the Pakistani Jihadist organisation held responsible for the December 2008 terror attacks in Mumbai, India. The article elucidates the ideology, strategic objectives, evolution, organisational structure and methods of indoctrination and training of the organisation. These need to be comprehended in the context of the LeT’s terrorist capability. Evidence is given from Jihadist discourse from the Mujallul ud Dawa, the official publication of the LeT.
