Wagah Massacre is to Push the Armed Forces into the Wrong Front
A devastating suicide attack at the entrance of the Wagah Border parade venue on 2 November killed 60 people, including 10 women and 7 children, and left more than 110 injured. Again the claim for responsibility was made by a shadowy group, allegedly from the tribal areas. Asides from the grave human loss, these blasts are an attempt to strain Pakistan's armed forces. The Pakistan armed forces face two enemy forces on their borders, on the western border, the Americans occupying Afghanistan and on the eastern border, the Indian forces, who have been mercilessly firing tens of thousands of mortar shells into Pakistan. In the midst of these challenges, the bomb blast has been used to turn the attention of the armed forces onto a third front, the tribal areas, from where America has faced a defiant resistance from tribal Muslims, which have shaken its resolve and forced it to make a partial withdrawal.
Such attacks solely serve the interests of the Americans and the Indians. It is no surprise either that such attacks are part of the American foreign policy. These are false flag attacks, supervised by American intelligence and private military and designed to ensnare Pakistan's armed forces into prolonged, low intensity conflict within its own borders, crippling its capability to address the American and Indian enemies.
Only the Khilafah "Caliphate" can extricate Pakistan's armed forces from the trap laid for it by traitors in Pakistan's leadership, collaborating with America and India. The Khaleefah will strike at the root of the terrorist network, which is the American and Indian forces, whether it is diplomatic, intelligence or private military. Having decisively smashed the internal threat, the Khilafah "Caliphate" will expand Pakistan's armed forces, ensuring that it recruits from Pakistan rich and diverse sources of able bodied men, whether in the tribal regions or elsewhere.
Crippling Gas Price Costs is a Consequence of Capitalism
On 4 November 2014, Dawn reported, "Amid a controversy over excessive power billing, the government is set to face another wave of public outcry as gas tariff for all categories of consumers, including domestic, is likely to be increased by three to five times in a month or so. "Our estimate is that a domestic consumer who receives a monthly bill of Rs500 will get a bill of about Rs5,000," an Ogra official told Dawn." As usual the government denied such reports, but what it cannot deny is the previous great rises in gas prices and the fact that when public attention is diverted elsewhere the government continuously raises the price. Moreover, the backs of the Muslims of Pakistan are being broken as the entire energy sector is undergoing whole-scale privatization, with accompanying rises in prices to ensure profit for the private parties that are the new owners.
Capitalism holds private ownership of all property as an ideal. It frowns upon state ownership as a necessary evil. It has no concept of public ownership of energy, unlike Islam. As a consequence, Capitalism has ensured the privatization of huge sources of revenue, which in origin should fall under public ownership, such as energy and minerals, or predominately state owned, such as heavy industry, telecommunications, arms manufacture and telecommunications. So private companies have become owners of immense wealth, such that some have more than small countries. This has occurred at the cost of society and this indiscriminate privatization of property is one of the main mechanisms in Capitalism for the concentration of wealth in the hands of a few. To add to the woes of the people, having deprived society of the great sources of wealth, democratic countries then greatly increase taxation upon the common man so as to raise revenues for looking after the people's affairs.
It is high time that the Muslims ended the world's economic misery, by establishing the Khilafah "Caliphate". The Khilafah "Caliphate" through implementation of the Shariah laws related to property will provide an inspiring economic model for all of humankind, as it did for centuries previously.
Regime Exploits Karbala Tragedy to Claim that Islam is Unimplementable
As occurs every year during Muharram, the traitorous regime's mobilize their mouthpieces in the media to raise hue and cry, in order to ignite sectarian strife. They fulfill the agenda of the colonialists by raising the question in the minds of the people, that if you want Islam, which Islam do you want? These lowly agents never raise questions about which democracy, a system of open Kufr. Moreover, the importance of the institution of Khilafah "Caliphate" in Islam, apart from the explicit texts in Quran and Sunnah, is clear from the tragedy of Karbala. Imam Hussain and the people of Madina believed that it is the right of the Muslims to appoint the Khaleefah and no one can forcefully assume the post of Ameer ul Momineen.
Authority in Islam is such an important subject and a sacred duty because there is no Islam in society without Islam being in political authority. It was for this purpose, to protect the political authority in Islam, the Khilafah "Caliphate", that Imam Hussain sacrificed himself and his family. So what to say about today when Islam is not in authority, neither in governance? Imam Hussain feared for Muslims loosing the right to appoint their Imam so what about now when there is no Imam and no Khaleefah. If anything, Karbala and the great sacrifice it commemorates must remind us of the importance of Khilafah "Caliphate" and our obligation to work towards its re-establishment. For heroes in Islam are not just celebrated but emulated.
US General Gloats over Ensnaring Pakistan's Armed Forces
Pakistan's ongoing military operation in North Waziristan has helped disrupt the Haqqani network's ability to launch attacks on Afghan territory, says a top US general. In a Pentagon-hosted video briefing from Afghanistan on the evening of 5 March 2014, Lt-Gen Joe Anderson said the Haqqani network was still "one of the many threat streams" that continued to affect the US presence in Afghanistan.
The US is examining the operations closely because it needs to curtail Pakistan's great potential as a power well beyond its borders. America needs Pakistan to focus internally, in order to make way for the rise of India as the US backed policeman for the region and guarantor of US ambitions regarding China and the Muslims. An internally focused Pakistan will ignore the growing presence of India in Afghanistan, which the American occupation has secured. An internally focused Pakistan will ignore Indian atrocities in Kashmir and other Muslim populated regions. In addition, an internally focused Pakistan will never benefit of the strong Islamic sentiments that bind this vast Ummah, fertile ground for the unification of the Muslim World as a single force.
Islam alone can rescue Pakistan from the deep and dangerous US trap. Islam uniquely grants Muslims a sense of global responsibility, as RasulAllah (saw) was sent as a mercy for all of humankind. Islam ignites within them the urge to sacrifice in order to secure the supremacy of Allah's word. Thus, for centuries, the Khilafah "Caliphate" was not only the leading world state, it was the liberator of the oppressed and a sanctuary for the worlds refugees. For centuries, the Khilafah "Caliphate" gathered Muslims across continents as a single force against formidable enemies. Alliance with US is assuring Pakistan's demise. Only Islam and its system of Khilafah "Caliphate" can secure Pakistan's deserved rise.
Raheel-Nawaz Regime Seeks to Raise Bodyguards for India and the US, Rather than a Liberation Force
Pakistan Army Chief Gen Raheel Sharif renewed on 6 November Pakistan's offer to train Afghan security forces and promised weapons for an infantry brigade. The offer was made during Gen Sharif's day-long visit to Kabul for meetings with new Afghan civil leadership and military commanders.
America is in need of bodyguards for its cowardly army of occupation, whose role will also be to secure the unprecedented Indian presence in Afghanistan that America granted her. Rather than working to liberate the Muslim Lands from foreign enemy presence, the weak-willed and treacherous regime is bending over backwards to facilitate the American plan by arming and training her would-be bodyguards.
The Muslims must uproot the criminal Raheel-Nawaz regime and secure themselves by establishing the Khilafah "Caliphate". The Khilafah "Caliphate" will smash artificial borders that divide and weaken Muslim Lands, such as the Durand Line which separates Pakistan from Afghanistan. The Khilafah "Caliphate" will train and arm sincere tribals on both sides of the current Durand Line to strike at the crusader presence. And the Khilafah "Caliphate" will mobilize the armed forces of the Muslims to decisively eradicate the US occupation, shaken by facing poorly armed tribals, which will send India scurrying back into its borders.
Allah سبحانه وتعالى says,((وَلاَ تَهِنُوا وَلاَ تَحْزَنُوا وَأَنْتُمْ الأَعْلَوْنَ إِنْ كُنْتُمْ مُؤْمِنِينَ))
"Do not weaken nor grieve, for you will overcome them if you are (indeed) believers" [Surah Aali-Imran 3:139]
