Pakistan and the Real Face of Terror

Finally, it is official. It was Pakistan governments’ policy to promote terror. India knew it from the beginning. The US knew it. Almost every intelligence agency in the world knew it. But all others except India kept mum coz none of the countries in the world want India to emerge as a super power. They all liked to see India being troubled by terrorists. Countries like the US supported it by supplying money and weapons.


This is what the Pakistani President Mr.Zardari said the other day:

“Militants and extremists emerged on the national scene and challenged the state not because the civil bureaucracy was weakened and demoralized but because they were deliberately created and nurtured as a policy to achieve short-term tactical objectives. Let's be truthful and make a candid admission of the reality….The terrorists of today were heroes of yesteryear until 9/11 occurred and they began to haunt us as well..”

-Asif Ali Zardari, President of Pakistan

The US and the west will never allow India and China to become friends. They don’t want India and Pakistan to be friends either.


India said it very clearly, long ago - Pakistan did not become a victim of terror but it has become a victim of its own policies.

Now Muslims started killing each other. Mosques are getting bombed by Muslims themselves. I believe most of the common people in Pakistan do not support terrorism. The US has no right to kill the innocent Muslims in Pakistan and Afghanistan in the name of fight against terrorism. Now the US live in fear. They fear that some attack will come from somewhere. If at all any such thing happens in future, I am not surprised. The US need to understand that every nation is a proud nation for that country’s citizens.

This reminds me of a saying in my mother tongue ‘ Valeduthavan valale’ which means something like - the one who raise a sword will face a sword, one day. Its like a goon who killed getting killed by another goon.

Let us support peace and not war.
