NO..!! To US for illogical demands: The Frontier Post

How can Pakistan give permission to a country which is almost openly involved in conspiracies against our homeland in collaboration with Pakistan’s arch enemy, India, and also Israel…? The ultimate objective of US of coming over to Afghanistan, taking the plea of ‘war-on-terror’ and to ‘catch’ Osama Bin Laden is to reach and secure Pakistan’s nuclear arsenals which Washington has said more than a dozen times. So How can we give permission to US for making a mini-US State Department and Pentagon & CIA Regional head quarters, in Islamabad? The people of Pakistan are not in favour of giving US such facilities and would treat it as tantamount to treachery and highest order of ‘treason’ against the country as giving away these permissions mean committing suicide. The way Mr. Zardari gave India Wagah-Torkham transit route, without consulting the Parliament, it is feared that he will also grant this permission to the US. The US administration very well knows the ‘tricks of the trade’ as a little pressure on Zardari yields results. In a democratic country, normally Opposition benches make lot of hue and cry in and out of the Parliament but unfortunately the leader of our main opposition party has been put to ‘sleep’ by Holbrooke, in his last meeting with him, and gave him a ‘strong doze’ to keep quiet and you will be the next President and since then the major and the strongest opposition party is ‘sleeping’ even on issues which directly threaten country’s integrity and solidarity. He is not rightly evaluating the ‘dangers’ and the possibilities of disintegration, looming over the skies of Pakistan, therefore, ever since he is either sleeping, eating or spending much of his time in front of the man-size mirror to see how would he look like ‘President’? Therefore, the people of Pakistan should not expect any hopes from the main opposition party, PML-N, that it would oppose US’s illogical demand. However, it is quite likely that the students and lawyers come out on the streets, all over the country and block these permissions. If we look from the viewpoint of sincerity of the present government, and also the opposition benches, we would find that none of them seems to be sincere with the country as they ought to be. If, God forbid, anything goes wrong with the country, all these Feudal, Waderas, Choudhris, Nawabs, Sharifs and Sardars of the ruling PPP and the rulers-in-waiting, PML-N would fly away to their villas and luxurious apartments and hefty bank balances in European countries and also in the Gulf as they have amassed unlimited wealth after getting through highly unfair means, kick-backs on international contracts and the unpaid and written-off loans of billions of rupees and the cases of corruption cleared by virtue of the controversial NRO. They will immediately get PIA flights rescheduled to their destinations, London and Dubai residences, leaving behind the masses at the mercy of Americans, Indians and the Israelis. And those, Feudal and Industrial Lords, who stay back will provide their allegiance and loyalties to the “conquerors”, the Americans and Indians, in order to save their lands and industries and also to “rule” once again the remaining of Pakistan, as the “conquerors” will divide the country into three pieces. Do they still call themselves Muslims after grabbing and amassing wealth through totally unfair means in a country which has been thriving on loans and aid and the poor have reached l a stage where they are murdering their families and themselves or selling their children for not being able to feed them even once a day? What actually the intentions of the US could be for enhancing its diplomatic staff positions to 10 times more than the approved strength, by the government of Pakistan, particularly keeping of hundreds of Marines and the import of hundreds of DynCorp Armoured Personnel Carriers?. The big question is if a lot of US diplomats can move freely from Islamabad to Lahore and Multan/Bahawalpur, most of them without permission and without an escort too whereas it was also in the news that Southern Punjab is a ‘breeding ground’ of Taliban and yet these Diplomats remained safe and sound, then why 350 additional Marines and DynCorp Armoured Personnel Carriers, are required to be posted in Pakistan. And what is the guarantee that all of these would not be Mossad agents with state-of-art-arms n their possession? It may be recalled that 49 Steel Boxes, burnt in the controversial fire after the bombing at the Marriot Hotel, Islamabad, had arrived in the 6th trip of Mullen’s aircraft which went straight from the aircraft to the already waiting trucks of the US embassy, unchecked. What was in those large 49 ‘steel boxes’ that burned so profusely…? Nobody knows about it but one may just guess the contents from the secrecy maintained by the US Embassy as these ‘steel boxes’ were transferred from the Embassy to Marriott Hotel, Islamabad, at 2:30 AM by Marines who did not allow any of the hotel employees to touch them and handled/transported, all of these, on 4th & 5th floors of the hotel by themselves. It means that the US Embassy’s storing capacity had been reached to the Full, with such consignments, having been arriving in the past through Mullen’s aircraft, which had made quite frequent trips to Islamabad, that is why the Embassy had to hire two floors to keep this ‘special consignment’. It could be someone’s wild guess that there were sophisticated arms and ammunition in those boxes, which could have been supplied to the paratroops of the Special Elite Green Force, Delta Force and the Orange Force, waiting near Pakistan’s borders in Afghanistan to be airlifted into Pakistan at 12 hrs notice, as and when the American President gave green signal to the Chief of command of US army in Afghanistan. Therefore, it seems that by enhancing ‘diplomats’ presence in Pakistan and 350 more Marines, US has more ‘dangerous designs’ against Pakistan. There is another logical big question that India is almost 8-10 times bigger country than Pakistan and a new ‘ally’ too then why US has not chosen India for its ‘bigger’ presence in the region, instead of, specifically, Pakistan…? Moreover, US administration has announced a number of times that they will stay in Afghanistan for an unspecified period, it could be 10, 20 or 50 years, therefore, they want an easy access to Helmand, the Southern province of Afghanistan. Therefore, the demand for a ‘small’ portion of Balochistan’s coast is in fact a multi-purpose use as 1. The US will have a short cut to Afghanistan. 2. The US will have total control of Strait of Hormuz, 3. US’s presence in Balochistan and in Afghanistan will boost subversive activities in Iran. 4. Russia and China’s access to the Arabian Peninsula will be completely blocked. 5. All the Central Asian countries will be dependent on US for access to the Gulf & Middle Eastern markets. There may be other benefits of the area they are demanding through Balochistan’s coastal area, most likely near Iranian border, they will stay there for ever and will never vacate it. Therefore, by giving permission to US, to have an access to Afghanistan, via Balochistan coast, means “Good-bye” to Balochistan. However, according to confirmed news ‘report’, there are already US troops in Pakistan under the guise of US private security contractor “Blackwater Force”, in Peshawar apart from Special Elite Force, Delta Force and Orange force. All these ‘Forces’ have different jobs assigned to them and to be carried out in Pakistan not in Afghanistan “Blackwater Force” (This is a report by the German news agency DPA) Fear is spreading across University Town, an up market residential area in Pakistan’s north-western city of Peshawar, due to the overt presence of the controversial US private security contractor Blackwater. Sporting the customary dark glasses and carrying assault rifles, the mercenaries zoom around the neighbourhood in their black-coloured armoured Chevy Suburban, and shout at motorists when occasionally stranded in a traffic jam.
