Terrorism Challenges Continue in the Region

[CENTCOM]

: We again saw this week in Quetta Pakistan; terrorists attack a public bus killing 11 civilians in a blatant and ruthless attack that took the lives of two children among women and elderly. Terrorism is a challenge that continues in the region. No one can deny the fact that terrorist attacks have decreased considerably in Pakistan, but the attack this week and the one last month at the military base in Peshawar is a stark reminder that the elusive enemy is waiting to strike whenever they get a chance. The time is ripe for all parties concerned to work together to eliminate this menace in the region. The common citizen has suffered for long in the hands of the terrorists. Recently the US commander in Afghanistan, General John F Campbell testified to the US Senate Armed Services Committee, “Senior Pakistani military officers have repeatedly declared that they can no longer discriminate between ‘good and bad’ terrorists. They appear to be taking meaningful actions to back up their words.” He was referring to the ongoing massive military operation, codenamed Zarb-e-Azb, against terrorists in North Waziristan Agency, the once stronghold of local Taliban and their foreign cohorts, and the subsequent offensive in the strategic Tirah Valley of Khyber Agency.

Tomorrow when President Obama hosts Prime Minister Nawaz Sharif at the White House, counter-terrorism and regional stability will be part of the agenda. The White House Press Secretary said in a statement, “The visit will highlight the enduring nature of the U.S.-Pakistan relationship and provide an opportunity to strengthen our cooperation on issues of mutual concern, including economic growth, trade and investment, clean energy, global health, climate change, nuclear security, counterterrorism, and regional stability. The President looks forward to discussions with Prime Minister Sharif on ways we can advance our shared interest in a stable, secure, and prosperous Pakistan.”

We hope to see elimination of terrorism in the region so peace and prosperity can return to the people who so deserve.

This is good news. Now how about telling India to stop supporting terrorism in Pakistan?

Terrorism never existed in current form until 2007-2008.
All terrorists operating in Pakistan, have safe heavens in Afghanistan.

Abdul Quddus and hubala hubala Ali Khan at it again. I guess the only role left for muslims in the US army is desk jobs like these-if they really exist.

You guys created the terrorists of today with dictator Zia Ul Haq. Every dictator was in the arms of the Americans and most of them along with Zulfiqar Ali Bhutto was responsible for the orthodox mullah worshipping society we have produced today. If the Americans wouldn't interfere in countries thousands of miles away we would have done much better.

There will be no respite from terrorism and there will not be peace in SA until the Brahminic hold on Delhi is loosened. Track back on any incident of militancy and you will arrive in New Delhi - either the grand offices of RAW or DG Military Intelligence.

Why didn't US authorities believed Kiyani or Musharraf?
There never was any discrimination made ever between terrorists, that was mere propaganda from US state.
All terrorists reside in Afghanistan and only there they receive training, and tasks.

[AZADPAKISTAN2009]

Don't worry too much Russia is helping us with Helicopters

Nuclear security.........look who is talking....... only one country detonated nuclear assets and killed innocent lives.......US cannot claim moral high grounds with respect to Nuclear issues

 

[tarrar]

The reason is because of some corrupt politicians like Achak Zai & corrupt party like ANP & JUI-F who protect & give shelters to rented terrorists & also use them for their personal interests.
