US: Cat is out of the bag

Posted on 17. May, 2011 by in Pak-US Relations

Now the American patience has run out. Before she sinks, she wants the world to sink with her thus resorting to desperate moves.

Raja Mujtaba

By Brig Asif Haroon Raja

India had waged a war in 1947 to annex princely state of Kashmir and prevent it from acceding to Pakistan. But for valiant response action of Pak Army and Azad forces, India would have gobbled up whole of it. Indian forces invaded Pakistan in 1965 without formally declaring war so as to destroy Pak armed forces but could not do so. Within six years Pakistan was once again invaded but after sufficiently weakening it from within through subversion and signing a treaty with former Soviet Union. As a consequence, Pakistan was broken into two. Despite the 1971 disaster and despite India going nuclear in 1974 Pakistan could not be overawed by India owing to ZA Bhutto’s leadership qualities.  India tried hard to browbeat Pakistan but each of its intended military assault got thwarted owing to Pakistan’s tenacious resolve to fight back.

Pakistan’s nuclear program which commenced in 1976 was meant to save itself from further truncation. It remained under heavy fire of Indo-US-western media campaign. It came under US scrutiny when it was in its infancy in 1979. Relentless efforts were made to restrain Pakistan from pursuing this program. Not only the author of the program ZA Bhutto was made a horrible example, Pakistan was put under sanctions by Jimmy Carter in 1979. USA and the west created a barrier around Pakistan to prevent it from obtaining fissile materials for its nuclear program from anywhere. Determined to preserve its sovereignty and integrity, Pakistan had to perforce make a cut on its other needs and procure its nuclear requirements from the international black market on exorbitant prices. But for Afghan war against the Soviets, it might have become exceedingly difficult for Pakistan under Gen Zia to make the program reach its logical end. Likewise, Pakistan’s missile program was also subjected to intense pressure and it was alleged that China and North Korea were secretly helping it in constructing ballistic missiles.

After becoming a strategic partner of USA and Israel in early 1990s, India has been trying hard to get Pakistan declared a failed and a terrorist state involved in cross border terrorism in Indian held Kashmir and in nuclear proliferation. Pakistan nuclear program was demonized and given the name of Islamic bomb. Fears were expressed that it may not be passed on to radical Arab states like Libya for use against Israel. Indian and Israeli air force jointly planned to destroy Kahuta Plant through a surprise surgical strike and on few occasions came close to it. Luckily there were no Mir Jafars within our ranks at that time and the whole nation was united behind the nuclear program and as such nefarious designs of our enemies couldn’t succeed. It was owing to nation’s unity which gave heart to Nawaz Sharif to give a tit for tat response to Indian nuclear tests in May 1998 despite heavy pressure from USA an UK. Pakistan was put under another set of sanctions which were withdrawn only when Pakistan under Gen Musharraf agreed to do as told to do in the aftermath of 9/11. With it, the era of erosion of Pakistan’s sovereignty commenced.    

9/11 gave an opportunity of the century to India to use terrorism as a card to penalize Pakistan. In concert with other powers, India made use of Afghan soil to unleash biggest psychological operations and covert war against Pakistan in world’s history to weaken Pakistan from within. Twice the entire Indian military might came on Pakistan’s border to launch a decisive war.

In 2004-05, AQ Khan Network was demonized and Pakistan pressured to open up its nuclear sites for inspection by UN inspectors or IAEA. Hoax of this network was played up to present Pakistan as an irresponsible and nuclear proliferation state so as to deny civilian nuclear deal to Pakistan as was offered to India in 2006. Pakistan was not excused even when Dr AQ made an apology to the nation for passing deigns of obsolete P-5s to Iran and Libya and Pakistan took adequate measures to prevent such a recurrence.

The US then started drumming up safety and security of Pakistan’s nuclear program alleging that security measures were inadequate and in the backdrop of increasing strength of militants, likelihood of nukes falling in wrong hands couldn’t be ruled out. The US think tanks and media kept playing the theme of ‘wrong hands’ despite Pakistan taking extraordinary measures to safeguard its nuclear sites and the IAEA as well as US inspecting teams expressing their satisfaction. Emphasis was on having Pak-US joint protection teams. The US media then came up with fanciful tales about the US Special Forces swooping in to take away the nukes just before they could be pinched by militants. Different scenarios were discussed and war gamed.   

It was in this timeframe that Indian Army Chief Gen Kapoor came out with India’s Cold Start doctrine and tried to frighten Pakistan that a viable solution to Pakistan’s nuclear strength has been found which would render its deterrence valueless. Award of civilian nuclear deal to India by USA and allowing it free access to Nuclear Suppliers Groups was meant to bolster Indian nuclear capability and to weaken Pakistan’s deterrence.   

146700 troops of Pak Army and paramilitary forces are deeply embroiled in fighting own people in troubled north-western regions since 2002. Pakistan has lost $68 billion in fighting US dictated war on terror and its economy has gone bankrupt. In terms of human losses, 3579 military persons and 33000 civilians have fallen victim to terrorism and yet there is no end in sight. In the aftermath of Raymond Davis incident followed by Operation Neptune Spear in Abbottabad, Pak-US relations have dipped low and Pakistan’s sacrifices gone down the drain.

Pakistan has been charge sheeted on several counts. 102500 US-NATO troops based in Afghanistan are looking for an opportunity to step into FATA under the plea of hot pursuit operations or to dismantle alleged sanctuaries of militants. In order to disable or steal Pak nukes, a huge network of CIA undercover operatives and Blackwater elements are secretly operating in Pakistan.

These elements in cahoots with anti-Pakistan militant groups will intensify terrorist attacks including group attacks for which training is imparted by US-Indian military trainers in Afghanistan. An impression will be built that these are reprisal acts to avenge Osama’s death. Sensitive installations including nuclear sites will be targeted to scare the world that Pakistan’s nuclear arsenal has become unsafe.

This fear had been drummed up in 2007-08 and reached a crescendo in first quarter of 2009 till such time Operation Rah-e-Rast was launched on 28 April and the hype was defused. The story lost its punch after highly successful operations in Bajaur, Buner, Dir and Swat and later in South Waziristan in October 2009 which broke the back of foreign aided militants. The spin doctors then started playing another story that sympathisers of Taliban working within nuclear facilities might steal nukes and hand them over to the militants.

The old tape has again been switched on in the aftermath of controversial death of OBL on 02 May. The first song has been sung after an interval of about two years by Sunday Express on 15 May 2011. It says the US troops will be deployed in Pakistan if the country’s nuclear installations are threatened by terrorists out to avenge the killing of OBL. It says the plan will be activated without President Zardari’s consent. Obama would order troops to parachute in to protect key nuclear missile sites which would include Sargodha having an airbase and battery of 80 missiles. The newspaper claims that the plan has been approved by Obama. Alex Neill has stated that the US trust in Pakistan’s abilities is extremely low. He added if Obama can persuade the Congress that placing US troops at the installations is necessary to protect US citizens from possible nuclear attack, then that’s what he will do. The US leaders repeatedly lied that they have no ill-designs against Pakistan’s nuclear program. They have at last come out in the open and the cat is out of the bag. 

The world had heard President Barack Obama addressing his nation eight hours after the raid in Pakistan on 2 May, 2011 about the death of most wanted man OBL. Imagine next time Obama walking up to the podium in White House in a exhilarating mood and triumphantly announcing, ‘Ladies and gentlemen, I hereby proudly announce that our valiant forces have last night added another feather in their caps by way of successfully disabling Pakistan’s nuclear program which had become a danger to world security’. Amidst thunderous applause from the audience, he would go on, ‘Extremist militants in Pakistan were on the verge of stealing the nukes from the nuclear arsenal but before they could lay their dirty hands upon them and threaten our troops in Afghanistan and the world, all the nukes were swooped away in a jiffy by our Special Forces’. ‘These are now in our safe custody’.

‘This bold act fraught with extreme hazards has made the world including Pakistan safe from a nuclear catastrophe’. ‘I commend the brave hearts for accomplishing this feat with admirable precision and without any loss of human life and I also hasten to extend my appreciation to Pakistan’s political leadership for its intimate cooperation since without their support, this achievement may not have been possible’. ‘I am sure, Pakistan will today be feeling much lighter, safer and secure and will from now on behave in a more responsible and mature manner in its relationship with India which has emerged as an economic and military power of South Asia and an upcoming global power’. ‘It will be in interest of Pakistan to accept India’s ascendancy and live in peace and harmony as a compliant state’. ‘With all our objectives accomplished, I have ordered return of our soldiers from Afghanistan’. ‘God bless you all’.

Independence had been achieved from the clutches of Hindus and British at a very heavy cost. Hard won independence must be preserved with all our might. Now that the US has exposed its intentions, there is an urgent need to free Pakistan from its stranglehold at the earliest before everything is lost. We must joggle our fun loving greedy rulers and warn them not to barter away our freedom in return for dollars and prepare the nation to confront the enemies disguised as friends. Or else the people who have never benefited from American aid would pick up cudgels at their own and re-enact Tunisian and Egyptian examples and go a step further to die fighting rather than giving up their honor without a fight.

    well written article, commendations to you!!
    the enemies are plain to see for pakistani,s externally, but what are you doing about the enemies within???
    before he was murdered by those enemies within , hakim sayyed clearly showed you who those trouble makers in pakistan were, have you patriotic pakistanis from the armed forces really become such pansies and wimps that you will accept willingly what you fought against all your life????
    those who have no vision for the prosperity,security, independence of pakistan need to be neutralized from they positions of power quickly to save pakistan and its suffering people?
    i am more then sure as a layman that you recognise those enemies within, do you now have the guts to take action for your own and the countrys protection?
    the american zionist satanic jews rule all power structures in america and the western world, so beware pakistan!
    so it seems to the rulers of paksitan that to receive 20 billion or so dollar crumbs from the americans is worth spending 60 billion plus dollars and 33,000 deaths of innocents in pakistani blood and money???
    besides stupid fools is there any other word of description for your behaviour?????
    respect yourself before you expect others to respect you, honour your children,wives and sisters being killed, murdered and mutilated by these foreign devilish bastards from the western world!
    they do not care a shit about you as they have consistently stated and shown, what exactly are you brave pakistani soldiers fighting for????

    A well written article sir. As an indian and a fellow retired service officer i feel there is a greater destiny for our 2 countries. The US is the # 1 unreliable state in the world.
    Pakistan shd ask all US operatives to leave the land. There is no need for any US aid. Protect urselves. India has only recently started towing the US line under the present regime. But as service officers we know, they cannot be trusted.
    India and pakistan shd not allow kashmir to spoil our growth. we shd increase our business and cooperation and grow together. Be strong, be safe!

    There is always silver linning behind the cloud. Israel has never been a loyal friend to anyone. It helped India to divide Pakistan in 1971. Now, Israel is working on its plan to create another little-Israel out of India.

    What nuclear weapons? Only shells are lying in Pakistan. The Brain (fuse) of weapons was removed long ago along with the dignity of Pakistan by Whites through Musharraf and Sharif in exchange of wealth  they are now munching on. Pakistan is starving not leaders who have assured muslims virgines and wealth in Heaven. Rise brothers before we are burnt by nuclear weapons whatever Whites left with Pakistan. Sorry affair…

    @Raja Mutaba

    But you do know that between the English and the Indians, the Indians would be far better as allies, and that the issue of annexation would be meaningless with a ‘Greater India’ in general being Aryan-Dravidian union of ethnotype populated peoples. The issue of religion is moot as seen in the way you describe Indians as Hindus.

    India, Pakistan, Bangladesh, Sri Lanka etc.. could be the Greater India that all across the world would need to step around cautiously, even as a Greater China would possibly in a longer time framtime, form from Indo-China and the rest of the Pacific. It is not about religion, it is about ethno-types and religion has played everyone for a fool, instead of a EU style super state that could stabilise into a true Mulit-Polar World Order. MWO.

    Nothing will happen not even with whole muslims countries. It is difficult to mend when thing is broken from with in. The trust is frightening. While sleeping with in Dubai one Saudhi Princess showed her happiness to PEE in my washroom wince it was facing MECCA. "Mohammad is buried there" she laughed " he must be delited to see mine". When disease passed its limited it can't be cured which is the problem with Islam. Only drams and no belief.

      Babur yaar the worst thing that has come out of all this bogus 'Arab Spring' and the deliberate destabilisation of the entire ME and the dual Saudi/ Israeli role in all of this is truly shocking.
      Seriously the entire responsibility of this situation in Pakistan, not just with this OBL bullshit rests squarely on the ISI's shoulders!
      If the ISI is not sincere with the country and sold us out god knows when to these terrorist hillbilly's in Washington; to phir to sir hamara Allah hee hafiz hae…..
      I am willing to bet a million bucks right now that we have lost sovereignty over our nukes a very long time ago.

    Great article. It echoes my fears for Pakistan and my feelings about the only way forward.
    Inshallah the USA will fall before it can destroy another good Muslim country but with the evil mini me israel nipping at their heels nothing is too stupid or extreme so I fear they are coming soon. Islam is under direct attack, the Jewish extremists think they can pit the Christianity on life support against Islam. There really is no contest, they cannot prevail against Allah no matter how many martyrs they make.

    Pakistan renegged on peaceful nukes almost right out of the gate. Pakistan has shown itself to be a state sponsor of terrorism and frankly should be slapped down and slapped down hard. All nukes removed and all terrorsit organizations found and scrubbed. Period. Anything less is unacceptable, so suck it Pakistan, we're coming for you, you cheating liars.

  18. Salaam to all;
    Sometimes I wondered, why Allah SWT remains SILENT and not stops Satanic administrations such as the USA, India, Israel from carrying on doing "baddest" things to most "Muslim nations," as Allah had done before and during Prophet Muhammad s.a.w.'s days v the kuffarrs/Israelites in Medina, Makkah.
    Alhamdulillah; I found the answer: BECAUSE in MOST "Muslim" nations, inculding in PAKISTAN, there remain MOONAAFEEKEEN, corropt leaders/Religious leaders who carry on with their BID'AH and SHIRK practices…..prove me I am wrong on this observation.
    Kindly visit my Page at http://www.scribd.com, where just recently I PERSONALLY Challenged the US President Obama re Osama bin Laden death in Pakistan. I chellenged him for a MUBAHALLAH!

    Interesting article.
    Dont forget our present day leaders and politicians are mostly the descendents of the TRAITORS of1857" War of Independence". who sold our fighters to the Raj in return for Big Estates, Titles, Money and Honours. These rulers, born with silver spoons in their mouths have no feelings of sympathy for the poor. They rig the elections, albait, with the help of the West and holding their poor workers to ransom, to return to power every time. So much for this so called sham democracy.
     I will not be surprised, if they have not already sold Pakistan and its assets to the West.

    But is Pakistan united?  Does everyone understand the current threat?  Are there still people who will do whatever the US government tells them to do?  The country is an easy target for internal conflict and conflagration.  Sunni versus Shia.  Baluchi versus Punjabi.  Muslim versus Chrisitian.  Until there is unity, Pakistan will be an easy target.

That's why Afghanistanis call Pakistanis "BULLSHIT". Jews floods are coming Bhulshitters and dron are howering on your head, INSHALLAH you all will burn and drown that is what MOHAMMAD (PBUH) wanted you to be.

    This policy will very probably result in the gadgets being disppersed. And if that happens it is logical that a few will come under threat of seizure – and then it's probable that they'll be used. Use or lose – it would have happened at Cuba if the missile crises had gone to invasion…
