Pakistan's 'Ruling
Clan of Bleating Sheep' Soil the Nation
"Who will tell these ignoramuses that the street doesn't give
a damn if this war is affected [by Wikileaks' release] or even if it goes completely
haywire, when it's become such an open wound on our body politic? It has cost
the nation dearly in blood and treasure without gaining us honest gratitude
from anywhere in the world. Rather than benefitting us, it has earned us nothing
but widespread pillory and abuse."
Prime Minister David Cameron, visiting India to boost jobs in Britain with a trade deal, has whipped up a hornet's nest in Pakistan by siding with the views of India Prime Minister Singh, who believes that that Pakistan must do more to fight terrorists.
Hubristically-arrogant
British Prime Minister David Cameron cheekily states that Pakistan is exporting
terrorism, and picks up thunderous cheers from his Indian audience, along with a
purchase order from the Indian government for dozens of trainer jets worth over
$1 billion. A disputed Afghan President, Hamid Karzai, who has little authority
beyond the outer gates of his presidential palace and the municipality of Kabul,
leaps upon the publication of U.S. military files by Wikileaks and screams for Afghan
Taliban "sanctuaries" in Pakistan to be taken out. And what's the
response of Islamabad's cringing and servile hierarchy to these audacious
outpourings by Cameron and Karzai? The entire ruling clan of sheep can only bleat
of how this will impact negatively on the "war on terror!" President Zardari mumbles it, as do Prime Minister Gilani, Foreign Minister
Qureshi and all the rest.
Who will tell these
ignoramuses that the street doesn’t give a damn if this war is affected or not,
or even if it goes completely haywire, when it's become such an open wound on
our body politic? It has cost the nation dearly in blood and treasure without gaining
us honest gratitude from anywhere in the world. Rather than benefiting us, it
has earned us nothing but widespread pillory and abuse. Over 3,000 of our
soldiers have sacrificed their precious lives for this war. In this war,
thousands of our civilian compatriots, including children and women, have been
slaughtered in U.S. drone attacks and terrorist strikes by thugs that were bred,
nurtured, funded, and armed by the
CIA-led
evil axis of India’s Research and
Analysis Wing (RAW) and Afghanistan’s National
Directorate of Security (NDS).
British Prime Minister David Cameron and Indian
Prime Minister
Manmohan Singh express complete agreement about how Pakistan
Our economy is a tottering
cripple for this war, with the losses inflicted amounting to some $40 billion
or more. Due to the insecurity that proxies and agents of this evil axis of
foreign agencies have spawned, domestic investment is fleeing and dread among
foreign investors is rising. For this war, our sovereignty stands violated and
our national solidarity in tatters.

Given all
this, one would think that reaction in Islamabad to the audacity of Cameron and
Karzai would be severe, manly and intense. Appallingly, it is not. The response
has been effeminate, befitting a woman and not a man. It doesn't appear that Islamabad’s
hierarchs are even aware of how the street is boiling with anger over the impudence
of Cameron, as well as that staunchly-loyal CIA
asset, Karzai. Karzai has blindly and slavishly done its bidding, going so far
as to anoint Indians as he and his governor's senior advisors, themselves CIA appointees.
People had hoped President
Zardari would have at least postponed if not cancelled
his upcoming visit to London, as a way of registering his nation’s outrage at
Cameron’s filthy inanity. He has not. Perhaps to him, the coronation of a
prince regent, who he's touting as the nation’s next ruler, counts for more
than his the popular sentiment of his people [Bilawal
Bhutto Zardari, son of President Zardari and the assassinated Benazir Bhutto, is to launch
his political career at a rally in Britain on August 7th]. Yet if he is so
loath to crown his prince at home among the people his rule is to be foisted upon,
why not have the coronation in France, which he also plans
to visit at Pakistan taxpayer expense? But if he's so resolved to stage this
regal coronation in the shadow of great palaces of kings and queens in London, let
him have the pleasure.
While in London
during his meeting with Cameron, will President Zardari
find the guts to ask a few relevant questions? Will he ask him why, after
Britain took it upon itself the responsibility of freeing occupied Afghanistan
from drugs, the country has instead become the world’s biggest producer and
supplier? Will he ask him why, when the occupiers had promised to pacify
post-Taliban Afghanistan, British troops remained for years on their secured
bases in Kabul and Bagram? Will he tell him that when
British troops finally ventured out to Helmand in 2006, the then British defense
secretary squawked that they would wrest it from the Taliban without firing a
shot?

Yet, four years on,
they have failed to capture even a notable portion of it, and American Marines
have had to be deployed by the thousands, though they, too, have spectacularly failed
at the task. Will he ask Cameron why American soldiers playfully ridicule the
fighting mettle of British troops, derisively calling them chickens? And why the
command of British troops has been taken away from a British commander and
given to American officers, amid reports that the British contingent had been
bribing local Taliban not to attack it?
But isn’t this
expecting too much from an Islamabad leadership that has demonstrated itself to
be a spineless pack of self-styled leaders without which the nation would be
much better off? They are worse than the dictator Pervez
Musharraf, who threw this poor nation into such a demeaning state by performing
like a red-light district dancing girl for his American patrons.
