3 years ago: U.S.-Israeli-Indian sponsored, Therek-E-Taliban-Blackwater terrorists; attacked the Army Public School in Peshawar, Pakistan: 141 students and teachers were martyred. 132 of the victims were aged between 8-18.
Not since Cast Lead in 2008 or the Israeli Mista’arvim siege of Beslan in 2004, have we witnessed an attack as cowardly as the one that occurred on December 16th 2014.
The perpetrators were killed on site whilst other terrorists were tracked down and allegedly assassinated by Pakistani forces within a year. But the string-pullers / political financiers of terror remain at large: They are in India, U.S.-NATO-JSOC occupied areas of Afghanistan, in the illegitimate state of Israel and within the Pakistani political system itself.
APS should have been a wake up call to arrest all traitors (e.g. the Nawaz-Zardari-Altaf cabal) put them on trial under Article 6 and execute those found guilty. To detain, deport and destroy every Indian sponsored shill, stooge and militant using Pakistan as a base of operations. APS should have been the wake up call.
It wasn’t.
No where near enough action has been taken in the last three years: There have been marginal improvements to the counter-terrorism apparatus overall (e.g. proven by the time it took to eliminate the terrorists who tried to attack the Peshawar Agricultural Training Institute, on Eid Milad-un-Nabi: The Birthday of The Prophet Muhamad (PBUH), December 1st this year) and there was a brief period in 2015 when military courts were active. But the NAP (National Action Plan) that was drawn up in the wake of this atrocity; has been obstructed by those same treasonous politicians who facilitated the APS attack to begin with.
Veteran Pakistani journalist and National Security Correspondent, Wajahat Saeed Khan, breaks down whilst assessing the immediate aftermath of the APS attack.
Now I’m not going cite some cliché like: ‘We will never forget’. Because the bitter truth is, that Pakistanis started to forget the second they allowed Israeli-Indian collaborators like Nawaz Sharif, Rana Sanaullah, Altaf Hussain, Mehmood Achakzai, ‘Maulana’ Fazl-ur-Rehman, Hussain Haqqani, Asma Jahangir, ‘Maulana’ Abdul Aziz, Rheman Malik, Asif Zardari, Hamid Mir, Najam Sethi et al to rear their ugly heads in public after this attack. The day Pakistanis allowed smarmy stooges to try and get a moratorium on the death penalty and halt military tribunals, was the day Pakistanis began to forget what it felt like; when news of this heinous crime broke on that fateful Winter morning in 2014.
Generally speaking, Pakistanis are winning the war against U.S.-Israeli-Indian sponsored terror, and bringing corrupt politicians to account via an independent judiciary (e.g. PM Nawaz Shairf was ousted from office earlier this year, and is currently under investigation for perjury and fraud). But victories on the battlefield or in court, must be consolidated through state policy and law: And the only way to do that is to purge every Israeli-Indian collaborator from the political ranks and start anew via an interim government. For its now or never: There are 141 reasons why Pakistanis, with Allah’s (SWT) help, should take their future into their own hands, take the corrupt by the scruff of their necks, and take back control.
God willing, APS will be avenged the day The Butcher of Gujrat, Narendra Modi is arrested, put on trial, sentenced and hanged in front of Lal Chowk. APS will be avenged the day Indian RAW terrorist, Kulbhushan Yadav, is frog-marched to the gallows. And APS will only truly be avenged; when every traitorous Pakistani politician and cleric, is standing next to Yadav on that scaffold.
Have we all betrayed the martyrs of APS? To some extent, yes. But there’s always time to turn things around. The war continues, and its a war none of us can afford to lose. Pakistan is our ally. Pakistan must win the war. I’m quietly confident that we, with Allah’s (SWT) help, will prevail against U.S.-Israeli-Indian terrorism. Not because we want to win the war, but because we have to win the war: We must win the war. God willing: We will win the war.
