The Pakistani Spectator

Where as purported presence of Al-Qaeda among Taliban on Pak-Afghan border has so far served as a tool and a lynch pin of Neocons dream hegemonic policy in Middle East and Central Asia. US has virtually been showing its craze to depict Al Qaeda as an omnipotent force, an imaginary, invisible enemy in disguise to serve as servitude of US, designed to present itself as ‘fore runners’ and to act as enemy, to inculcate fear at home and to spread Terror in area of operations.

The concocted stance of Al Qaeda has since facilitated all subsequent US planned attacks in the area to advance…US adventurism. This adventurism is likely to stay till such time that some other force emerges to counter this sole super power like; the Russia that it remerges and reclaim its lost position or yet another Eastern Giant China comes up to the surface. US have the earnest desire to bring the lands of economic resources of Middle East as well as Central Asia into her folds. Iran, odd one out and proving to be a tough bone in the process is required to be tackled and subdued fully at all costs.

Beside the economic sanctions and western hostile diplomacy including threats and pressures being imposed on Iran; there are reports that huge sums (some 40 Millions dollars) are being dished out with in Iran especially in southern Baluch area of Iran for covert operations to ask Iranian Baluhies to rebel rouse for a regime change. Probably Pakistan’s status in the war against terror, serving as proxy as well as a front state will be used as a scapegoat? It is very much felt that the provocative attacks in FATA are since on increase by NATO forces and there are rumours of build up of massive forces along Pakistan western border also.

The vision less operations of Pakistan Government to ask its Armed forces to quell the prevalent anarchy in the FATA area and to reclaim its writ by killing own people is adding fuel to make the situation verse. Here the called for retaliations and a rebel rouse from local Taliban are but eminent. The tall claims of vision and wisdom of Pak Government as well as of so called stallwarts of FATA was put to shame; when keeping in view, the escalated retaliatory mayhem being staged in FATA; Mr. George W Bush was reported to have said that on Pak-Afghan borders, the situation demands that severe actions be taken by Pakistan Army as well as ‘US lead NATO forces’ against their common enemy- Al Qaeda and Taliban…in side Pakistan.

So… before Iran is savagely attacked (as the authentic reports suggest some times in Oct 08) or is subdued other wise; Taliban as well as so called remnants of Al Qaeda are required to be eliminated inside Pakistan. It is likely that inferno of war on Pak-Afghan border area is ablaze and tensions heightened in the name of elimination of AL Qaeda. Tora Bora like destruction is very much expected. Lot of turmoil for present fragile Pak Government and misery in the life of Pakistani masses is setting its course. Under the pretext of convenience; the well sought situation so built up may serve US stance, to go ahead and exterminate Iran to subdue her on the charges that Iran being the last rouge state supporting insurgents and Terrorists be eliminated to secure peace in the wider Middle East.

How near is drawn the claim of George W Bush, to declare his victory on the war against Terrorism?
