Army chief urges forming consensus, implementing one solution to terrorism

[Devil Soul]

KAKUL: Army Chief General Ashfaq Pervez Kayani on Wednesday called on all institutions of the government and the nation to unite and form consensus on one solution to terrorism and other challenges faced by the nation.
Addressing the parade at the military academy in Kakul on Independence Day, General Kayani said that while freedom was a blessing, each and every one had a responsibility in maintaining it.
“We should never forget that freedom is blessing but we have some duties to maintain it.”
The Army Chief said that while the country faced a number of external and internal challenges, the internal challenges required our special attention.
“Today we face a number of internal and external challenges. Internal challenges need our special attention. They are a threat to Pakistan’s sanctity and to every Pakistani’s life and property.”
Kayani said that the only way to overcome the challenges was if we are united and act after forming consensus over one solution.
“To overcome them [challenges] effectively it is not enough for one or few state institutions to work for it, this is struggle will have to be made by every government institution, in fact the entire society. If we do not unite, it will be very difficult to control this [terrorism].”
The Chief of Army Staff added that while there could exist a difference of opinion on which strategy to implement, it was important to form consensus on one strategy and implement it quickly.
“While there can be difference of opinion on dealing with terrorism, but bowing before it is not a solution. We should go to every extent to create a national consensus on a solution and unite to implement it as soon as possible.”
He said that we must form consensus on one solution to remove doubt.
“This war can only be won when we form a consensus on one solution so that we don’t have any doubts in our minds, nor do the terrorists.”
“Terrorists will never succeed in its purpose because this nation, which has faced worst of terrorism for a decade has not allowed fear and terror to dictate them, terrorism as a strategy can never succeed. The best example is the entire nation coming out to vote in the elections.”

Addressing the parade at the military academy in Kakul just as the clocks struck midnight, General Kayani said that while freedom was a blessing, each and every one had a responsibility in maintaining it.
“We should never forget that freedom is a blessing but we have some duties to maintain it.”

“We should not have any doubt that we as a nation were failures or ever will be. For this we need firm resolve, Allah’s help and good fortune.
“Those who express suspicions and doubts about Pakistan fail to understand Pakistani nation’s resolve and resilience. It is important that we rise above our ethnic, religious and linguistic differences and understand, the way forward will automatically become easy.”

Its not his place to tell !!

he can only suggest different options, when asked that too not publicly.


p.s.

I think COAS speech should be given to him written by ministry of defence for him, so that he doesnt make comment about things, he is not suppose to.. its not mandatory but since our people have no to less range sense of institutional responsibilities, it might be a good idea to put bolts in their right places !!

Sorry to interrupt the celebrations but these words are repeated on every occasion by everyone since years and years. But nothing will happen to counter it.

> First, stop distinguishing between the 'good terrorists' and the 'bad' ones.

> Second, stop the selective approach of going after the TTP whilst supporting the LeT, JeM and other assorted terror groups.

> Third, prevent yahoos like Hafiz Saeed from propagating hate and Jihad openly which are brainwashing people into getting a Jehadist mindset.

> Stop thinking of India as 'enemy #1. The real one is within which is attempting to tear the society apart.

> Finally, stop pandering to the extremist mullahs for religious brownie points.

The solutions are simple. But their implementation is a non starter as it goes against the Establishment's deeply entrenched policies, as these groups are being used as so called 'strategic assets'. Without a paradigm shift in this doctrine it will be more of the same in times to come. There can be no salvation unless and until there is a radical change in the mindset of the powers that be.

He did say right that we would have to counter this threat as a nation...we have to get together now.
