LAHORE: Jamaat-ud-Dawah (JD), Pakistan Ameer Prof Hafiz Muhammad Saeed has alleged that India would send its 150,000 troops to Afghanistan for launching fresh anti-Pakistan operations as part of the latest US-India deal.
Deployment of the Indian troops in Afghanistan was made at American insistence after which the US-India nuclear deal finally went through, he said while speaking to heads of different JD departments on Monday.
In return, he said, Washington had agreed to the Indian demand of American military assistance to crush the freedom movement in occupied Kashmir. He said it was a strong wake-up call for those trying to freeze the Kashmir issue and promote friendly relations with Delhi, and urged Pakistani rulers not to remain silent at a time when America, Israel, and India had joined their forces to destroy Pakistan's defence.
He said America was Pakistan's enemy in disguise and would continue missile strikes in the tribal areas unless given a strong and courageous reaction. He said the rulers in Islamabad must end their servile attitude towards Washington and strengthen relations with Muslim countries and China.
