Terrorism
“
Pakistan plays a key and highly conflicted-role in the global war on terror. The whole world looks at Pakistan, as a land of terrorists. Terrorism is threatening the very roots and fabric of Pakistan’s nationhood.
Terrorism in Pakistan according to Ministry of Interior, poses a significant threat to the people of Pakistan. The current wave of terrorism is believed to have started in 2000. The current wave of terrorism peaked during 2009. Since then it has drastically declined as result of military operations conducted by Pakistan Army. According to South Asian Terrorism Portal Index (SATP), terrorism in Pakistan has declined by 89% in 2017 since its peak years in 2009.
Due to internal traitors and anti-Pakistan forces, despite sacrificing more than 60,000 civilians, 6,000 security personnel and spending 120 billion dollars in the war against terror, Pakistan has not yet won that war. A report, Body Count: Casualty Figures after 10 Years of the ‘War on Terror’ was released by the Nobel Prize-winning International Physicians for the Prevention of Nuclear War, along with Physicians for Social Responsibility and Physicians for Global Survival; it said at least 80,000 Pakistanis, including 45 journalists, 5,498 Pakistani security forces, have been killed in the US-led war on terror.
No doubt, the Pakistan army has broken down the power and annihilated the sanctuaries of the militants in the tribal and Northern areas during the Zarb-e-Azb and Raadul Fisaad operations. But, the militants have not yet been fully defeated.
During 1989-2017 total 3,062 incidents of sectarian violence have taken place, during which 5,681 persons were killed and more than 11,181 have been wounded. Poor law and order situation is suitable for the promotion of terrorism. More than 70,000 individuals have victimized in Pakistan. Moreover, since 1979, FATA remained infamous as a nursery of terrorism. Pakistan being the alley of US in War against terrorism paid a huge cost in sense of financial and the damage of human lives which however nurtured terrorism and anti-America sentiments among the affected masses as the prolonged war is witnessed by the generation born during the war that had nothing to do with the terrorism. Total 62,500 individuals died in terrorist attacks since 2003, resulting in brain drainage, lack of foreign investments, a weak economy and political instability in Pakistan.
There are also many external forces like India’s RAW, the Afghan NDS, Israel’s MOSSAD and America’s CIA which are trying their level best to destabilise Pakistan. These evil forces are hatching many conspiracies to halt the CPEC project and capture, or neutralize, the atomic weapons programme of Pakistan. The most tragic thing is that there are many traitors who are supporting these evil external forces. In fact, there are many religious and political leaders who are following the instructions and plans of the external forces in Pakistan.
There are many steps which could be taken to minimize the effect of terrorism such as:
- The real solution is to kill the root of Terrorism and systematically change the attitude of those peoples who are involved in terrorism
- The religious authorities should teach the religious principles and not the ‘biased philosophies.
- An efficient International Agency of Crimes Control should be introduced by the UNO.
- Education can stop the terrorism.
- Military operations against terrorists are also very necessary.
