Comment:

The US is struggling round the clock to create a new balance of power between India and China instead of India and Pakistan as part of its regional colonization agenda in South Asia. America is no more interested in keeping Pakistan as its priority in the regional political game as it was the case in the last decades, rather wants Pakistan to organize its politics in such a way that India could have a lead in the region.

In this regard, John Kerry in New Delhi has strongly urged Pakistan to cooperate with other sovereign nations on countering terrorism; referring to Afghanistan and India. He further added that Pakistan must not feel being isolated in the trilateral discussion among Afghanistan, America and India. He stressed that the issue of “cooperating with other countries in countering terrorism” is vital to Pakistan for its own survival, and that he is in contact with army and civilian leadership of Pakistan in this regard.

John Kerry’s statement about Pakistan is a clear and straight indication that US now prefers India over Pakistan in its plan to stay in the region and oppress Muslims. This is so because John Kerry demanded Pakistan to hand over those militants who were involved in the 2008 Bombay attacks and this year’s attack on Pathankot in January for which India blames Pakistan.

However, Pakistan has always followed double standard policy with the US regarding Taliban in Pakistan and Afghanistan i.e. calling Afghanistan’s Taliban as Good Taliban and Pakistan’s Taliban as bad Taliban. Such a stance has provided an opportunity to Indian and Afghan governments to exploit it and use Pakistani Taliban against Pakistan while Pakistan continued pressing Afghan Taliban against Afghanistan and India. As a result, America and India were taking advantage of the chaos in two Islamic lands while the US continued the mantra, “We do not differentiate good and bad terrorism, nor will ever do in the future. Terror is terror, no matter, who does it and from where it happens.”

On the contrary, the US and the coalition forces have continued their barbaric and atrocious terrorist activities against Muslims in Afghanistan and Pakistan since 2001. Similarly, India is committing heinous crimes against Kashmiri Muslims and the puppet governments of Afghanistan and Pakistan are committing atrocities against their very own people on daily basis. Despite all this, they call it fight against “terrorism and extremism” in today’s new war culture.

Likewise, India’s Economic Times had an article on Monday’s edition about Narendra Modi’s invitation to Afghanistan’s president. The article discusses the probability of providing four combat helicopters along with other military assistance to Ashraf Ghani current month. The newspaper added that Afghanistan has submitted a detailed list of new weapons to Indian government enlisting helicopters, armed vehicles and spare parts.

Afghanistan and India’s relations strengthened when Narendra Modi inaugurated parliament house in Kabul in December, and inaugurated Salma-Dam/Afghanistan-India Friendship Dam in Herat province in June of this year. On the Contrary, Afghanistan and Pakistan’s relations deteriorated more than before after Afghanistan claimed that the attack on American University of Afghanistan was designed inside Pakistan which resulted in cutting of 70% of American assistance to Pakistan. This further enraged Pakistan against Afghans and decided to withdraw 80000 Afghan refugees on weekly basis after Eid-ul-Adha.

America used the treacherous military and political leadership of Pakistan for its regional political maneuvers and deviate the focus of an incredible Muslim army from defending Kashmiri Muslims to Afghanistan-Pakistan border to suppress the Islamic resistance against America’s colonization. This resulted in creating strong disunity between the two Muslim societies and created friendship between Afghans and the Kuffars (Nonbelievers) of America and India. Afghanistan’s National Security Forces are treating Pakistani workers as enemies and Pakistan is treating Afghan refugees with envies and enmities, and this hatred is being cultivated among the Muslims through their puppet governments by the instruction of America.

Therefore, the people and sincere soldiers in the armies of both Afghanistan and Pakistan should realize the regional politics of America and India that is full of enmity and hatred. Considering the geo-politics of the two countries, they should try round the clock to organize their human resources and military forces under the biggest party of Ummah “Hizb ut Tahrir” to assist the re-establishment of the right-guided caliphate as per the Manhaj of the Prophet ﷺ which is the political system for all Muslims around the world in order for it to abolish America and NATO colonization and free Kashmir and once again conquer India and bring it under the Islamic regime.
