Resurgent Pak Army offensive against militant Taliban will do no good but fuel the wave of terrorism across Pakistan.
Let me repeat it will only embolden Taliban.
Both army and government should look for the real player of the game. Taliban are just ‘Proxies’.
Despite analyzing whether it is Taliban on their own attacking army, destroying government places, schools or is there any hidden power behind them. We in return are shelling on Swat mercilessly regardless of the victim. and unfortunately in this fight the victims are common people.
Interior minister is on record saying (unwillingly) that India Is supporting terrorism in NWFP and Balochistan.
Here so many genuine questions arises.
1. When we have the proof of Indian involvement in creating unrest in Pakistan then on what basis President Zardari claimed that India has never been the source of danger for Pakistan?
2. Why is Pakistan not curtailing the Indian support to Taliban and miscreants?
3. Why is Pakistan not bringing the real culprits to limelight?
The recent attacks on Taliban is not the solution of the problem its like removing the secondaries of cancer but leaving the main tumor uncured. In this nine day operation (still continue) army claimed to have killed 781 militants. Is there any proof that all dead were militants and how can one distinguish between miscreant and innocent. Armed forces are shelling from the distance proximity of more than five km. so how can forces make sure that the shell is hitting the desired target and not the house neighbor to it.
Unfortunately we didn’t learn anything from history!
When US attacked on Vietnam in ‘1965’ (Operation Rolling Thunder). China and Russia started supporting Vietnam morally and with arsenal. While on the other hand US kept killing Vietnamese who were engaged in war rather than stopping the supply line. And the result was total defeat.
In ‘1979’ Russia the other super power assaulted Afghanistan. US, middle eastern countries and Europe engaged Russia in the war, with the pivotal support of Pakistan, that lasted till the Russia was hacked to pieces. But the most interesting point is, despite the active support of west, Russia never attacked on Pakistan. As it has just been revealed (in Russia’s declassified papers) that she never had any intention to annex Pakistan at all.
In 1970 when mujeebur rehman won election. And demanded for its constitutional right to head the government. Z A Bhutto and Establishment (Majority of west Pakistan) showed reluctance and started a brutal army operation to suppress Bengalis. India took the advantage of the situation and provided Bengalis with arms, Guerilla training and moral support. But despite resolving the unrest politically Pakistan increased the numbers of soldiers there. And at the end surrender of Seventy thousand Soldier.
Now again the Pakistan is in the same vicious cycle. First of all we fallaciously engaged ourselves in this war on terror. And for those who claim it be our war, my question is, if it is our war then why didn’t we realize it until before 2006 (Pakistan moved its army in Waziristan in 2006). Now our army is engaged fighting with our own people. And India supporting Taliban and Baitullah Mehsud. And once again despite looking for a feasible political solution we are using force mercilessly. creating more dangerous situation than Befor.
This is political Government and Government should handle it politically.
