Pakistan VS Terrorism!

The series of remote control and time bomb explosions in Pakistan started in 1979 after the occupation of Afghanistan by the Soviet forces and the resistance of Afghans against it. India was also involved in these explosions in which no city from Karachi to Peshawar was safe. But suicide terrorism started in Pakistan through suicide bombings after the US invasion of Afghanistan in 2002. In these acts of terrorism, India attacked Pakistan in two ways and is still doing so. On the one hand, a situation of fear and uncertainty was created in the country through suicide bombings, killings, and attacks on security institutions. At the same time, while continuing the act of terrorism in Pakistan, on the contrary, Pakistan was posed to be a terrorist state through Indian media and renting International Media. In 2002, under the guise of the occupation of Afghanistan by the United States and NATO forces, other forces hostile to Pakistan, including India, turned the so-called global war against terrorism into a war against Pakistan's security, spreading terror throughout the country and raising a storm of terrorism. So with a coordinated and organized plan for this, terrorism was promoted in Pakistan with the name "Tehrik Taliban Pakistan (TTP)" similar to the Afghan Taliban fighting the resistance war in Afghanistan. The aim was to deceive not only the people of Pakistan but the whole world that elements within Pakistan who are committed to the religion of Islam have been forced to take up arms for the implementation of the Sharia system in Pakistan. In the beginning, hundreds of people were martyred every day through suicide bombings; the army, police, and other security agencies were especially targeted. Thus, the enemy elements kept giving the impression that this was done to transform Pakistan into an Islamic society. In these circumstances, the decline in foreign investment in Pakistan was certain, the consequences of which the Pakistani people are still suffering, and most of the Pakistanis were reluctant to recognize the attackers as terrorists for a long time.

Even then, many scholars declared terrorism against Islam through their statements and said that TTP people have nothing to do with Islamic teachings. They proved from hadiths and Quranic orders that the mass killing of innocent people is against Islam and Sharia law. The fact is that due to terrorism or suicide attacks, the enemies of Islam around the world definitely got an opportunity to spread hatred against Islam through Islamophobia, but not a single person has come forward who accepted Islam because of the fear of terrorists. Rather, the scholars issued fatwas in the context of the holy verses of the Holy Quran that the bloodshed perpetrated by the TTP is a serious crime in the light of Islam. In response, the TTP leadership tried to justify their terrorist acts by using the title of mufti or scholar with their identity. However, when they started targeting mosques, monasteries, places of worship of other religions, and blowing up educational institutions with suicide bombs, Pakistanis understood that the terrorists were following the Indian agenda against the security of Pakistan. Here it is pertinent to mention the threats given to Pakistan by the biggest follower of the Hindu terrorist group RSS in Indian Intelligence Agencies Ajeet Kumar Doval in February 2014 during his speech at Shastra University in the Indian state of Tamil Nadu in which he admitted that India used Defensive-Offense against Pakistan. According to him, three strategies have been adopted by India against Pakistan. In his speech, he disclosed that India is using money against Pakistan by giving money to the Taliban and this is India's policy of Defensive Offense against Pakistan through which India has destroyed Pakistan's economy, politics, and law and order. The foundation has been laid."

In 2014, the above speech of Ajit Kumar Doval became very popular on social media in Pakistan. But we have not learned any lessons from it. After the success in ending terrorism by sacrificing the lives of more than 80 thousand Pakistanis, we forgot that India will never accept stability in Pakistan. She was and will be looking to break Pakistan. She has been considering Pakistan's security as a threat to herself since day one. Its tried and tested tactics of India, to weaken Pakistan internally to promote terrorism in Pakistan. This terrorism is rearing its head once again. Before it turns into a monster. Terrorists must be crushed at the start. The Army Chief's statement "Our Pakistan" and his commitment to uproot terrorism in Pakistan at all costs is a reiteration of the fact that the soldiers and officers of the Pakistan Army are doing everything possible to crush terrorism as in the past are ready to offer sacrifices. There is a series of operations against terrorists, be it Balochistan or Khyber Pakhtunkhwa, based on Intel information. The martyrdoms of the officers and soldiers of the Pakistan Army in these operations are proof that terrorists have no place in Pakistan, but for this, national unity and political stability within the country is very important. Our political elites should also not go to the extent of power struggles and differences among themselves, the effects of which will cause division of the nation on the issue of security. The people of Pakistan have already suffered a lot from this internal division. This is Pakistan of all of us. We should worry about Pakistan instead of getting into the debate of old and new Pakistan, we should think of Pakistan...
