The News comment By Ansar Abbasi
ISLAMABAD : When they told us he
is a great Jihadi hero, we treated him like a prince. When they said he is the
main architect of 9/11, we blindly believed them and cursed him. When they
stated he is the world's top "terrorist", he instantly became a terrorist for
us too. And now they claim they have killed him within Pakistani territory and
have thrown his body into the sea, we also took it as the gospel truth and are
jubilant because they are delighted.
Pakistan
is really a sold nation. We have truly become America's voice. We have no
decision of our own. We have stopped thinking and acting independently, and we
can't believe Pakistan can
survive without Washington's
support".
It does not matter whether the operation was conducted with the cooperation of
the Pakistan Army leadership or without its information, in both cases it's a
charge-sheet against the military establishment. Why should we raise and
sustain the world's seventh largest Army, costing more than Rs600 billion per
year, if it could not or does not counter such a foreign invasion?.......
The Pakistani leadership might have thought that it would pocket more dollars
in exchange for the latest shame earned for the nation. But in reality Pakistan might
soon find itself between the devil and the deep sea. Instead of getting
dollars, the whole world has already started discussing Pakistan as the
epicentre of terrorism. And what al-Qaeda and Taliban would do with Pakistan is
anybody's guess.
