Heavy Industry is Neglected Again because of Colonialism
An International Monetary Fund (IMF) staff team led by Harald Finger visited Dubai during March 28–April 5, 2017, to conduct discussions with the Pakistani authorities on the 2017 Article IV Consultation. At the conclusion of the mission, Mr. Finger issued a statement which cited, “slower-than-expected growth of large-scale manufacturing and stagnant exports are weighing on growth prospects.”
Democracy will never allow Pakistan to achieve its potential because it is what implements the Western colonialist policies limiting the transfer of technology. Intent on exploiting the world resources, colonialist powers want to keep Pakistan a state with poor industry, unable to extract its resources by itself, devoid of heavy industry such as engine and jet engine manufacture, dependent on import of even simple agricultural machinery, provider of cheap light industry products for Western markets such as electric fans, surgical equipment, hand craft and sports goods, as well as making Pakistan’s population a huge market for Western products. Widespread unemployment, expensive goods, dependence on the West for weapons technology, brain drain of brilliant sons and daughters to the West are just a few symptoms of this deeply seated colonialist program. This colonialist policy is being implemented since the time of East India Company and is implemented today through democracy, which is just a rubber stamp for the colonialist policies of the World Bank and IMF.
Only the Khilafah will end the neglect of the heavy industry. In its Introduction to the Constitution, Hizb ut Tahrir has adopted Article 74, “Thus it is necessary that the State has factories for producing all types of atomic weapons, rockets, satellites, airplanes, tanks, mortars, naval ships, armored vehicles and all types of heavy and light weapons. It is necessary that the State has factories which produce machines, motors, materials, and electronics, and factories which have a relation with public property and light factories which have relation with the military or war industries.”
Gen (Retired) Raheel Accepts Riyaals to Fight and Kill Muslims
Gen (Rtd) Raheel Sharif has accepted a Saudi job offer to lead a yet-to-be-defined combined army which is allegedly being raised against ‘terrorism’. The Foreign Office stated on 30 March 2017, “The basic purpose of this force is (to) counter terrorism.” This makes General Raheel’s career even more controversial, after already having a legacy which includes ignoring Indian border and concentrating on securing US troops by attacking North Waziristan Agency – resulting also in helping the Indians both along the LoC, and along the Afghanistan-Pakistan border region. His tenure also saw further consolidation of the Raymond-Davis/Black Water network, along with Indian spy interventions in all four provinces of the country – leading to devastating attacks like those on Army Public School, Peshawar, and Charsada University carnages, multiple Quetta bombings, Sehawan and Lahore massacres.
From having the opportunity to lead one of the finest fighting machines of the world, the Pakistan Army, to his latest acceptance to serve the Saudi regime, the fact of the matter is that he serves the same master: the one who decorated him with the Legion of Honour! The US agenda for her puppet rulers installed in Pakistan and Saudi Arabia happens to be the same: using Muslims to kill Muslims. There should be no surprises in General Raheel’s accepting the Saudi ‘offer’. He, like his predecessors, has been single-mindedly serving US interests in the region. Musharraf’s era will be remembered as the black era which saw Pakistan giving ‘unstinted’ support to US against the Muslims of FATA and Afghanistan, treacherous U-turn on Kashmir policy and attempts to taint Islam by coining bankrupt concepts like ‘enlightened moderation’. The Kayani era saw the multiplication and consolidation of Black Water and Raymond Davis network in the country in collaboration with subversive activities by India, especially by using Afghan territory.
The only form of unity of this Ummah is a powerful State – the Khilafah which will unite the massive resources of this great Ummah under the leadership of a righteous Khaleefah. Only then will the Muslims have a commander that they deserve. It has been narrated on the authority of Abu Huraira that the RasulAllah ﷺ said, «إِنَّمَا الإِمَامُ جُنَّةٌ يُقَاتَلُ مِنْ وَرَائِهِ وَيُتَّقَى بِهِ فَإِنْ أَمَرَ بِتَقْوَى اللَّهِ عَزَّ وَجَلَّ وَعَدَلَ كَانَ لَهُ بِذَلِكَ أَجْرٌ وَإِنْ يَأْمُرْ بِغَيْرِهِ كَانَ عَلَيْهِ مِنْهُ» “A commander (of the Muslims) is a shield for them. They fight behind him and they are protected by (him from tyrants and aggressors). If he enjoins fear of God, the Exalted and Glorious, and dispenses justice, there will be a (great) reward for him; and if he enjoins otherwise, it redounds on him.”
US Puppet Regimes in Kabul and Islamabad Co-ordinate Divide and Rule
As reported in Dawn, dated 29 March 2017, the Congress-funded US Institute of Peace (USIP) recent report quotes from a July 2016 report by the Afghanistan Analysts Network, which claims that Afghanistan’s intelligence agency, “the National Directorate of Security, has supported the militant organisation Lashkar-i-Islam and elements of TTP since 2014 “with the aim of playing these militants against Pakistan in retaliation for Pakistan’s long-time support of the Afghan Taliban.” Fighters from both groups later joined ISK (Islamic State of Khorasan).
After the invasion of Afghanistan, US installed a puppet regime in Kabul so that it could secure its interests in the country. A few elections were carried out so that some sort of legitimacy could be provided to the installed regime. Therefore, the aforementioned report is yet another report revealing that US has been behind the false flag attacks that are creating havoc in Pakistan, as the Afghanistan regime follows nothing but the US plans. On the one hand US directly, through its military operatives and third party private military contractors, forming the Raymond Davis network, has been creating chaos in Pakistan and on other hand Washington has used the Kabul regime to aid these attacks. After 9/11, the US has been orchestrating a flurry of attacks in Pakistan in a bid to build public opinion for its “War on Terror,” with Pakistan’s rulers being complicit in this heinous crime, as they provided access and bases to US operatives. Subsequently, Pakistan’s regime started military operations against the tribal resistance on the directives of the US in a bid to secure its regional footprint.
For years, America has planned to broker a deal with the Taliban, whereby the Taliban could agree on some power sharing arrangement with the puppet regime in Kabul. America is progressing in its plan of breaking the back of resistance movement so as to draw Taliban to the maze of negotiations through the Pakistani regime’s military operations in the tribal belt that straddles the Pakistan-Afghanistan border. With the “IS” as the new bogeyman, the US would be able to counter the backlash at home in case of any negotiation with Taliban. Moreover, the IS ploy will also give a justification for the extension of stationing its troops in the region.
The aforementioned report also highlights these plans, affirming that “The USIP report, says that “a regionally supported political settlement with the Taliban” is the best way of defeating the IS in the Pak-Afghan region.” The treacherous Pakistan regime has been serving the American interests, at the expense of Pakistan. The sacred blood of Muslims, whether it is of the tribal people or the armed forces, is being spilled to practically realize American ambitions. In co-ordination with Afghanistan’s rulers, under the close supervision of the US, Pakistan’s rulers intend to sow the seed of division between the Muslims of Pakistan and Afghanistan in a bid to comply with the heinous American plan of dividing the Muslims. Allah (swt) says,
يَـۤأَيُّهَا ٱلَّذِينَ آمَنُواْ لاَ تَتَّخِذُواْ ٱلْيَهُودَ وَٱلنَّصَارَىٰ أَوْلِيَآءَ بَعْضُهُمْ أَوْلِيَآءُ بَعْضٍ وَمَن يَتَوَلَّهُمْ مِّنكُمْ فَإِنَّهُ مِنْهُمْ إِنَّ ٱللَّهَ لاَ يَهْدِى ٱلْقَوْمَ ٱلظَّالِمِينَ
“O you who believe! Take not the Jews and the Christians as Auliya’ (friends), they are but Auliya’ to one another. And if any amongst you takes them as Auliya’, then surely he is one of them. Verily, Allah guides not those people who are the Zalimun (oppressors)”
(Al-Maida: 51)
It is only Khilafah upon the method of Prophethood which will seal the US embassy cum military operations center and expel its operatives from our soil. The Khilafah will remove the Durand line and unify the Muslims of both sides of the border.
Only the Khilafah on the Method of the Prophethood will Strengthen the Ummah Against Colonialists
As reported in Dawn dated 29 March 2017, Defence Minsiter Khawaja Asif said the decision to appoint former army chief General Raheel Sharif as head of the 39-nation coalition of Muslim countries is an administrative decision and is not linked to the conflict in Yemen. Regarding the appointment of Rt. General Army Chief as Head of this coalition, Khawaja Asif further said, “They (Saudi Arabia) first wrote a letter to our government regarding the matter some six weeks ago, after which the government discussed the matter internally and sent a written agreement to the proposal after a week.” For several years now, America has been in a crisis, due its declining economy coupled with the expenses of war around the globe, with the killing and engagement of its troops in different conflicts. In order to relief itself from the economic expenses of these conflicts and its burdensome military engagement, the US has been emphasizing that other countries share this burden. The Obama administration has been vocal in engaging China to sponsor its War on Terror and the new Trump administration has been urging NATO allies to increase their share of the economic burden. It is in this context that the so-called Islamic alliance of 39 countries came into existence, which is to secure the America interests in the Muslim countries, particularly in the Middle East whilst taking a share of the casualties and costs. Knowing well the public desire for Muslim unity and hatred of the colonialists, the regime has launched a campaign to claim that the alliance is an attempt to strengthen the Ummah against the kufr belligerent nations. However, if the very formation of alliance is to serve American interests, how can this bloc work against the same colonialists?
The purpose of the alliance is to fight American war on terror which was also reiterated by Defence Minister, Khawaja Asif, who said “that the force is “purely against terrorism.” The deceitful leadership in Muslim countries and Pakistan have been loyal in their service to America. The treacherous rulers in Pakistan did not send troops to defend the Muslims of Syria from massacre at the hands of the tyrant Bashar and the colonialist powers that support him. They claimed in this case that we cannot engage in foreign conflicts outside of our region. However, they are sending troops to safeguard the American interests in Yemen via the US proxy, the Kingdom of Saudi Arabic. As reported in Middleasteye dated 22 March 2017, the Pakistan army is sending a brigade of combat troops to shore up Saudi Arabia’s vulnerable southern border from reprisal attacks mounted by the Houthis in Yemen, according to senior security sources. Gen Asim Bajwa was quoted to have said, “The deployment of the Pakistani brigade follows a visit by General Qamar Javed Bajwa, the Pakistani chief of army staff (COAS), to Saudi Arabia on a three-day official visit in December last year.”
The Muslims must reject the false call of the current rulers, who have fallen to the level of exploiting Islamic sentiments to cover over their crimes. Islamic unification will not be possible without the establishment of Khilafah. It is only Khilafah upon the Method of the Prophethood which will unify the Islamic lands by removing the colonialist imposed artificial borders between Muslim. The Khilafah will unify the Muslim Ummah on the basis of the Islamic creed, rejecting any sectarian or nationalist division. It is only Khilafah which will gather all of the Muslim armed forces as a single armed force, to liberate the occupied Muslim Lands and open new lands for Islam. RasulAllah ﷺ said, «إِنَّمَا الْإِمَامُ جُنَّةٌ يُقَاتَلُ مِنْ وَرَائِهِ وَيُتَّقَى بِهِ» “Indeed the Imam is a shield, you fight under him and you are protected by him.”
