The issue of militancy and the Taliban continues to be framed erroneously — most recently as a variant of the “with us or against us” choice: either one supports the military operation in Swat and Fata or one is supportive of the Taliban. Just as the Bush choice has been largely responsible for the chaos and radicalisation in the Muslim world, so the Pakistani variant doing the rounds currently misses the real issue. After all, there is and always has been a consensus in Pakistan that militant extremism should be crushed and the writ of the state and government established.
The disagreement is over how to go about achieving this objective. Should there be an attempt to go to the root causes of militancy and then to resolve the issue through a multi-pronged strategy including dialogue backed by state power as well as policies to bring in the marginalised population by giving them a viable stake in the system? Or does the solution lie in simply unleashing indiscriminate military force to establish the writ of the state while the roots of the problem continue to fester?
Having just returned from a visit to the US organised by the Pakistani community to raise money for Shaukat Khanum Hospital, as a result of meetings arranged by the community I had the opportunity to meet with Senator John Kerry and Congressman Gary Ackerman, both influential players in the context of our region. I was surprised to find both quite open to rethinking their present Afghan strategy. In fact, they have realised that the continuation of the military-centric Bush approach has failed and new options must be examined. There is, therefore, a need to engage with those in the US seeking more viable alternatives for this region as well as with members of the Obama administration. A meaningful engagement can be done through sending a delegation of experts who understand the tribal areas and Afghanistan - not simply the self-anointed “experts” — referred to by one analyst as “native Pakistani informer(s) — who speak what the traditionalists in the US want to hear. I am convinced that a powerful presentation can be made about the need for a US exit strategy from Afghanistan and I believe the Obama Administration can be made to see the following points:
* It is costing the $60 billion a year and costs will go up with the surge - and with no guarantee of a turnaround. Simply sending more troops into a multidimensional conflict will not turn the tide in one’s favour.
* The longer this war goes on, the more chances of a radical takeover in Afghanistan and the greater the threat of radicalisation amongst the Muslim youth. These youth, especially in the Western countries, pose a greater danger to these countries including the US than al-Qaeda.
* The situation in Afghanistan has been moving in favour of the Taliban and deteriorating for Nato and US forces since the past few years.
The question is why our government does not realise that there has to be a new strategy as the current one is sheer madness? The answer is that there are those in our leadership who are quite willing to go along with the current policy of spilling Pakistani blood — both of the soldiers, civilians and militants — as long as they can get dollars and US support. Even more crucial, all the issues of bad governance and corruption (400% rise in 3 years) are papered over as the leadership hides its incompetence under the counter terrorism banner.
Like their predecessors, they also know that if things go out of control in Pakistan, they can always take off to western capitals where their wealth and properties await them.
Beginning from zero militant Taliban in 2004 before the Waziristan operation, today there are around 30 Taliban groups (according to the presentation given by the army to the Parliamentarians). No one has any idea who is backing which group; what percentage are fighting because of Pushtun solidarity; how many belong to the old jehadi groups created at the time of the Soviet occupation of Afghanistan; how many are actually criminals and unemployed; how many are paid by the enemies of Pakistan to destabilise the country; and so on. In other words, there is an odd amalgam of militants and criminal elements seeking to destabilise the Pakistani state.
How can military operations be supported when our soldiers die in vain, when each operation produces more militancy as well as increasing the suffering of the local civilian population? While the government correctly claims that drone attacks are counter productive and produce more militancy, would the Pakistan military’s aerial bombardment with its indiscriminate “collateral damage” also not have the same effect?
Herein lies a basic contradiction in the government’s policy. Those who are suffering the most are the people of the tribal areas and Swat - with over three million people displaced, their homes, livelihood and children’s education destroyed.
What about the forgotten Bajaur operation earlier this year when 500,000 civilians were displaced and our soldiers suffered many casualties. Today, the Taliban control the same areas that the army had removed them from earlier. The most disconcerting aspect of the present military action is that no one is interested to know what needs to happen for us for “victory” to be declared.
As happened in the fight against the Soviets in Afghanistan, this “war” could go on endlessly and spread across the country. After all, a brief look at the history of the tribal areas reveals how the British were embroiled in an unwinnable war for 80 years and before them the tribals confronted the Moghuls for 69 years.
Can Pakistan afford these operations for even the next five years? How will we deal with the continuing flow of displaced people - or how long will the IDPs survive living as nomads in their own country? How are we planning to stop the radicalisation of the youth in such conditions? Where will we find the resources to eventually rehabilitate these displaced families, given the massive infrastructure damage? What about the impact on the economy if these operations continue endlessly? Already the political situation in the NWFP is getting worse by the day. We have created perfect environment for our enemies to exploit tensions emerging from the current chaos- ethnic, provincial, religious (shia/sunni, deobandi/barelevi) and class (as in Swat).
The critical question is: what is the solution? In Swat, despite being a severe critic of the timing and nature of the military operation, now that it is in full swing, it has to go on till the writ of the government is established. Otherwise there will be even more anarchy as all existing infrastructure has been destroyed. But there is still a need for a more targeted focus of the military operation and a gearing up of the civil administration including the police and local judiciary.
The solution lies in pulling our troops out of Fata gradually and simultaneously reviving the tribal structure. But this means not only withstanding political pressure from Washington but also doing without US dollars - both of these seem beyond the capability of the current dollar-addicted leadership!
However there are voices within the US political and administrative structures that are becoming more sceptical about the US policy in Afghanistan. For instance, Graham Fuller, the former CIA station chief in Kabul wrote in the International Herald Tribune that there was no military solution to the problem in Afghanistan. According to him, Pakistan was “cracking under the pressure” put on it to “do more” by the US and that the Pakistan security forces could control the militancy within its borders provided Nato leaves Afghanistan. If sane voices in the US can see the writing on the wall, why is our leadership still going down a suicidal course for their own vested interests - destroying the military and the nation in the process?

This simple post is to protest against the inhuman sluthering in gaza by israel where more than 1300 people died including womens and childerns and thousands are injured. Although i want to say many things against it, look like all the appropriate sentences are gone and there remain silence. Campaign being launched to Boycott Israili Goods all around thw world. We should know the Pre-war status of gaza where the economic blockade have devastated the daily lives of palestinian peoples, and those rockets which were fired by Hamas(according to israel) bring no more than a smile infront of what they have done with palestinians. Time will decide the winner and loser of that war. More Articles About Palestine
Peoples of india and pakistan are looking curious to know the updates of what is coming and decisions taken in the call for APC (All parties conference) by both nations. India this time looking to send some strong message to pakistan on its border or india will look to take the services of those elements being giving serving to stronghold the interest of global powers in this region.
Another important development which were pointed out by many defence experts many times in the past is india-israil relation, Before Mumbai attacks Indian National Congress trys not to go in any relation which could send bad message to INC muslim members. Diplomatic relations between india and israil were officially established in after 90's during Indian National Congress tenure, but this newly relation were at peak when the nationalist BJP party formed their government from 1998 to 2004. Prime minister of israil at that time Ariel Sharon also visited india in 2003 during BJP period.
On the other side global powers knows how worst it will be if pakistan decide to stop fighting US war in this region. it will end with complete vanishing of US roll in this region and possibly the end of unipoloar world, thats also the answer of all the blaims and conspiracies against pakistan started from 9/11 to mumbaii attack. Nation of pakistan should realise the importance of only muslim nuclear power state, but as a state came by the name of Allah and the promise we made to stablish the law of quran and sunnah.
The worst thing is that we muslims have coward leaders, puppet governments, organisations running to safeguard the interest of global powers, nationalist parties with the task to divide muslims by the name of color, cast and sectors.
No matter what more we try to do to be an american ally, no matter when we analyse the game plan of zionist in this region. Quran rightly guided us about disbelievers and they will not stop of their evilness. And sooner the definition of terrorism and terror will be change which were given by global terrorist(america,uk & israil )to put shadow on their evil deeds and blood shading of inoccent muslims.
Kashmir being one of the longest dispute, unsolved standing from 20th century till today, nobody knows how many millions of peoples being killed, parallized, prisoned by the indian forces which we called "indian millitary terrorism".
Several initiatives from pakistan and india had been taken after 2001 massive army deployment on both sides of the borders which were going towards the nuclear war in the subcontinent. But due to international players involvment and diplomatic efforts from both side lead agreement to maintain a ceasefire. confidence building measures like Bus service, trading, cultural relation etc were introduce with aim that both countries will mobalize their people for some options to solution of kashmir issue. In this regard ex president of pakistan pervez musharraf had taken some unpopular steps to show his seriousness to resolve kashmir issue. pakistan withdraw its support to kashmiri freedom fighters and cease the border to stop the movement of mujahideen, an initiative of a crake dawn against all the active groups in pakistan, Pakistani President Pervez Musharraf were even agreed to give up its claim on Kashmir in a proposals, including a withdrawal of troops from kashimr, self-governance system, with no changes in the borders of Kashmir, and a joint supervision mechanism involving India BBC News. But its look tarrifying when we analyse today our current policy & position on kashmir issue. How can we make a single bold policy in the interest of pakistan when we are continues involved in US War against terrorism(Against pakistan)? that should be called US War Against Muslims Values & Faith.
Latest updates coming from occupied Kashmir is that leaders of the All Parties Hurriyet Conference and activist are motivating kashmiri peoples to standup and came out to make the struggle succeed, they are urging to participate in the October 6 Lal Chowk March. Large number of Indian soldiers committing sui-side aslike we saw soldiers fighting in afghanistan and Iraq are committing sui-side because they know what part they had played in evilness and brutal killing of innocent peoples for the name of terrorism. According to kashmir media service organisation such deaths among the indian soldiers raise to 116 since January 2007. Indian troops start martyring innocent youth of kashmir once again on the large scale to subvert the strong resistance, No one to stop indian millitary terrorism?
Musharraf resignation is not and was not the ultimate solution of Current Crisis! We are struggling with our system not by any personals, because whoever came next will repeat doing the same.Hence its proved in current election 2008 Speaking of a silent majority as this word very commonly used by every politicial person to make his statement highly respected and exemplary. The really of that common majority is nothing more than peoples living on strange planet, they talk what you told them to talk, they cant even express the pain and suffering on there own body. This is a beauty of our beloved system we are living in that we have no senses left to identify good and bad.
Why is it too hard to tell a truth when you knows it? Is it Because Nobody else is repeating or present to cover you up by his own story or you find no one to support your theory. whatever the reason maybe we should admit that something somewhere is not rite. We are not suppose to be understanding our sociopolitical system or else our democratic system is incapable of understanding our values and culture. There can't be two ways to fulfill our Ultimate Goals(To submit our will to our creator or to be successful in this world and hear-after). Democratic system of ruling have had enough blessing on our soul in the 60 year history of Pakistan, and we should now think how to achieve our ultimate goals practically.
Everyone agreed that we should have our own economic and political system different then this system, where we are not bound and not dictated by western nations. But when someone comes with an advise speaking about the path to achieve the objectives we all start shouting with "WHAT","HOW","IMPOSSIBLE" kind of things. Some peoples says that we should build our economy first to fight with our enemy, why don't they saw nations with huge economic growth and never ending wealth still depending to be protected my westerner, there Wealth are in West, Pro-western strategies, even self dignity are under coustody. They cant even control there assets, there own resources etc.
The beauty of that system in which we are living in is "WE FEEL LIKE VERY FREE" and believe me thats the worst part of it. Its against the fundamentals of our religion too, and believe me you can't satisfy the both things at the same time. Its finally up to you to decide what to pick. There will be few hurdles but that's what it means when committing something with your God.
What Atleast to be done is to restrict ourself from the evil deeds of that system. We should strengthen our fundamentals so that we have another prospective to be looked and understand in this particular political senario.
We are running on US Aid, Grants given to us are not because they love us or they want us to be florished. But why not pakistan reject these kind of aids! Are you kidding? Dont you see how well dress our rulers are, you should always give a smile while looking at the shiny car rally of our VIP's. If you are hugry dont be frustrated, get use to electricity shutdown, judiciary will be restore one day(only and if president agree to do so). People who voted PPP should respect NRO and should respect president musharraf and must follow the commands as according to the deal. People of pakistan living in the north-western areas are terrorist and deserve to be treated as enemy to pakistan, because we are bond to declear them terrorist as we are an ally in US War against terrorism(Muslims).
Questions remains unanswerable, if thats a policy of a peoples elected and voted party then why to blame PML(Q)?, I still remember the faces of PML(Q) spokemans in these kind of situations, but look at this government they dont even feel guilty on any single issue.
What I mean to say is the political sensibility, new ideas, ability to resolve issues, safeguarding moral values and most importantly the "Will to do". But those who are from ages trying to surve there Godfathers can never lead the country, because they are mentally trained to obey the commands instead of given the Orders. They will keep looking toward their masters, creators and boses.
Is it all what we have? is it all what peoples wanting. Real problems are bigger then our observations. we even forgot the differences between independance and dependance, we still claps on the jokers of politics who only knows what words can grab the attention of the audience.
Its time to wake up to take what we deserve, and give them what they deserve the most, otherwise our identity, our religious values even our own childerns will be sold in global market one day.
