The Jamaat-e-Islami chief, Syed Munawar Hasan, has said that the US had come down to blame game and threats against this country in regard to Haqqani net work on seeing a clear defeat in Afghanistan but the Pakistani nation wont be deterred by its threats.
Addressing a grand Ghalba e Islam convention at Swabi, on Sunday, he said that the Haqqani net work was in Afghanistan and not in Pakistan, so why did not US take action against it in that country.
He said that Pakistan could not be held responsible for the security of the US and NATO forces. He called for full mobilization of the nation in view of the US threats and said serious efforts should be made for a complete national unity.
He said that today, PM Gilani and army chief Gen. Kayani were saying that the US could not do without Pakistan. “I would suggest them to tell Washington point blank that Pakistan can survive and progress without US”.
Syed Munawar Hasan made it clear to the US that if it cast an evil eye on Pakistan, millions of Pakistanis would be found ready for Jehad.
The JI chief said that there had been unprecedented massacre of the Pakhtoons during the ANP rule. He said, MQM chief, Altaf Husain had accused ANP leader Asfgand Yar Wali of drawing 22 million dollars from Washington and said Asfandyar should have pulled out of the coalition government with the MQM but he did not have that much courage. He said the entire responsibility for the present situation in Karachi lay on the MQM.
Speaking on the occasion, JI deputy chief Sirajul Haq, said that the ANP had sold out the Pakhtoons’ blood for dollars but the people in the tribal areas and in the Khyber P would punish those involved in this deal. He said the JI on coming to power, would eradicate corruption, unemployment, lawlessness and tyranny from the country.
