1) Tools > Language > Thesaurus
2) In the Replace: box, type "let"
3) Click "Search"

The top entry in the "Meaning" list is "(noun) Lashkar-e-Taiba".

It hardly seems appropriate for an acronym to appear as the top entry for a
common word, especially this particular acronym in an English thesaurus. I
wonder if this is a case of someone adding this entry to the thesaurus for
political reasons?

The same entry appears on some online language tools[*]; maybe OOo is picking up
"hacked" data from upstream?
