  • The Political Role of Military in Pakistan

    It is mind boggling to know that most of the time the most revered persons,tombs,concepts,books,places, and institutions have been used for the exploitation of masses on mass level in the third world countries.e.g the names or tombs of religious saints have been the biggest source of income for their descendents or believers,the concept of determinism has been making it easy for the kings and monarchs to rule the fate- struck masses of the east,the holy places worldwide have been used to attract masses to invest their money in search of peace of mind or fulfillment of their wishful prayers,the dissemination and propagation of sectarian religious books have been serving the purpose of bringing out the worst in humanity and compelling them to fall prey to the commercial trap of their propagators at the same time similarly the institutions of Pakistan military is using India phobia to get a lion's share in the budget of Pakistan.

    In Pakistan almost all the institutions necessary for the proper functioning of the state have been jeopardised so it is necessary to crack the code of the virus which is responsible for their mal-functioning rather dys-functioning of this failed state.To the surprise of the state-indoctrinated and suffering masses of Pakistan and the mislead portfolio-holders of Pentagon in the United Sates, that virus which is resident in the roots of the Pakistani system is Pakistan Army.The institution of Army and its associated Agencies has been actively involved in grabbing the reigns of power to become a dictatorial,authoritarian and autocratic regime and decide the fate of billions of people of Pakistan.

    Army is considered as a sacred cow in Pakistan by its ex-worshiper Punjabi majority. It is blasphemous to utter even a single word against the immoral and terrorising activities of Pakistan army and its associated agencies like ISI ,MI and IB because the main argument of all military and dictatorial regimes, to justify their illegitimate tenures and refute any criticism, has always been the misuse of the ambiguous phrase “Everything we do is in the national interest of Pakistan”.

    Let us have a quick look at the charge sheet against this organised and revered institution which has been technically competent for being financially and politically corrupt, desperate and determined to kill anyone who can raise a voice against their atrocities and injustices and ever ready to squeeze major chunk of the budget of a third world country like Pakistan to quench its thirst for power.

    The power-grabbing strategy of Pakistan military works as follows:

    1) The Punjabi-majority army shows its allegiance and loyalty against all known human standards of self respect and national interest to the United States alleging the politicians to be immature to handle nukes responsibly.

    2) After the official acknowledgement from the Whitehouse, it then exaggerates the US concerns in the region and offers its services to help achieve US national interests in the region.

    3) Depending on the political scenario and circumstances the military awaits the green signal from the Whitehouse to grab the reigns of power till the sanction is granted by the decision makers in the Pentagon.

    4) Based on the assurances of the Whitehouse Army uses Intelligence agencies to exploit any mistake or weak point to topple the government.

    5) Once the army comes into power it faces the question of legitimacy to face the free world and world media.

    6) It easily gets legitimacy from the Judiciary by offering incentives to those who long for it while use force and tactics of extortion, pressure ,threats and sacking to the resilient ones.

    7) After getting legitimacy it gives a fake and imaginary vision to the masses win give a catharsis to the latent hatred and rebellion of the masses against the system and benefactors.

    8) To suppress and divide the masses and keep their attention diverted from the real cause of unrest, the common dirty job all military regimes do in Pakistan is the fabrication of ethnic and religious terrorist organisations.

    9) Over a period of time , the tenure of the regime due to its incompetence, misuse of power ,wrong and unpopular policies culminates in the destruction of institutions followed by corruption and misappropriation which in turn gives birth to injustice and hence unrest in the masses. Then with the help of ISI and other agencies, Army fabricates a king’s party and holds an engineered election to bring them into power by buying their vote and promising incentives and power sharing in the future.

    10) Due to the appointment of fake political figures and titular representatives in the king’s party the government is unable to deliver due to which the masses gets agitated once again and the agencies comes into action once again on the directive of the high-ups in Army to find out alternative plan to keep the reigns of power in military hands.

    Let me quote two shameful examples briefly:

    a) The first example from the black history of Pakistan was the emergence of General Zia-ul- Haq ,who offered the services of Pakistan army and agencies to defeat Russia and contain it to Afghanistan in the name of religion, propagated religion to win the sympathies of masses, fabricated Sipay Sahaba and Sipah Mohammad to polarise the society on sectarian basis ,established and encouraged MQM - the largest ethnic terrorist network in the history of Pakistan, formed IJI , killed or imprisoned all those who raised a voice against his dictatorship, used and projected religious demagogues who justified his regime.

    b) The second example is the current dark and dictatorial military regime of Pervez Mushharaf,who toppled the democratic government of Nawaz Sharif ,exploited the new slogan of ‘Pakistan first’ and accountability ,offered the services of army to kill Taliban and Al-Qaeda - both of whom were harbored , trained ,financed and encouraged by ISI in different cities of Punjab, fabricated PML-Q as the king’s party and bought the votes of religious parties to further strengthen his regime.

    In the conclusion let me quote France based Syed Jamaluddin who was forced to leave Pakistan after military coup of General Pervez Musharraf in 1999.He has elaborated the role of Army and ISI in Pakistan in his book "Divide Pakistan to eliminate terrorism" published in 2006 about the issues related to terrorism and Pakistan. He writes:

    [“Pakistan is the central headquarters of all terrorist activities under the authoritative command of Inter-Services Intelligence (ISI) an organ of Pakistan Army who have been sheltering ethnic and religious terrorists organizations in the country through military as well as financial support”]

    Putting light on the pro-Punjab policies of ISI regarding using Taliban against small provinces he writes:

    [“Inter Services Intelligence Agency (ISI) is the real government in Pakistan. It is part of the ISI’s well-established policy to organize violent pro-Taliban protest demonstrations against the United States in the provinces of Sindh, Balochistan and NWFP (North West Frontier Province) and keep the province of Punjab away from these demonstrations and strikes”]

    Regarding patronising the fanatic, extremist and even terrorist groups against US and sacrificing the innocent people of minority provinces at the altar of military he writes:

    [“The United States and international community assured the Pakistani rulers that if they extend co-operation to United States and international community in the war against terrorism, Pakistan would get the legitimate fruits of such co-operation. After these assurances of the International Community the ISI conspired to activate the religious and so-called Jihadi groups on their payroll to use the provinces of Sindh, Balochistan and NWFP (North-West Frontier Province) provinces as their battleground against United States and International Community. This conspiracy to use the minority provinces was aimed to give the United States of America and the International Community a completely wrong impression that people living in these provinces are against USA while the real situation is totally different.”]

    Highlighting the double game played by Pakistan Army to depict a wrong picture of the smaller provinces on one side and deceiving the world community on the other , he goes on to tell us about the real safe haven to harbor terrorism in Pakistan:

    [“Pakistan Army through its terrorism network called ISI has made an attempt to tarnish the image of small provinces of present Pakistan on one hand and on the other to deceive USA and the International Community. It is a bitter truth that the province of Punjab is the hub of all the fanatical and so-called Jihadi groups and the Headquarters of all the fanatical and extremists groups are situated in different cities of the province of Punjab like Lahore, Multan, Jhang, Faisalabad and Nankana. The ISI’s “game” to deceive the United States and international community would not last long and this act of deception would reach to its logical conclusion. When that happens the world would know who actually benefited by deceiving others and who lost, whereas who was deceived by whom and who was hoodwinked.”]
