Muridke, Dec. 26 : Despite claiming that it has come down heavily on terror outfits operating from its territory, Pakistan is still uncertain about how to tackle Jamaat-ud-Dawa, the terrorist outfit which India claims masterminded the Mumbai terror attacks.

Islamabad, Dec 26 : Pakistan would not be the violent mess that it is if the country's leaders had ever united against Islamist militancy as they have against India over the past three weeks.
