The proud land of the Pakhtuns has become a playground for national and international forces playing political chess in order to safeguard their vested interests. The major players in the game are Secret agencies, Al-Qaeda, CIA and Religious theocracy (Taliban and MMA).The international secret agencies are transforming the Pakhtun heaven on earth to a living hell by detonating bombs in Pakhtunkhwa and Baluchistan and targeting their “political” rivals.
The result of creating law and order situation is weak security and instability which gives the impression to the external world that Pakhtun land – which is the prime target of interanational secret agencies, is no more the land of heavenly peace and tranquillity. The burning and bombing activities by the secret agencies in the Pakhtun land is diverting the attention of the Pakhtun masses from provincial autonomy to merely a question of survival and peace. The biased and criminal acts by the secret agencies are hindering all progress and development work in Pakhtunkhwa and are indirectly helping the Punjab and MQM.
The drama in the tribal belt is also a courtesy of secret agencies .Talibans to destabilize tribal Pakhtun belt in order to facilitate cross border infiltration into Afghanistan. The secret agencies are helping and supporting Talibans to implement their strategic depth policy to destabilise Afghanistan and Pakistan.Al-Qaeda is operating throughout Pakistan and is acting against the interests of Pakistani and Afghan governments. It is collaborating with Talibans too and indoctrinating rather brainwashing youngsters for suicide attacks to achieve their ideological goals both in Afghanistan and Pakistan.
The international agencies are operating majorly in NWFP and Baluchistan using some pseudo nationalist elements, religious clergy and local criminal elements. It aims at the targeted killing of anti-imperialist forces, destabilizing Baluchistan to safeguard its economic interest against that of China in Gwadar and execution of its plan to have a strategic presence in FATA and the adjacent areas to contain and watch China for geo-political interests of US.
The religious theocracy represented by Taliban and MMA are unpredictable elements in Pakhtun politics and are ideologically based on sectarian and pro-establishment religious interpretations having intrinsic roots of contradictions. They are political amalgams aiming at exploiting the religious inclination and ignorance of poor Pakhtuns masses.
Lost in the self-created optimism about the occupied land of Pakhtunkhwa, the pre-occupied Pukhtoon leadership which is seemingly united now is wasting its energies to become a scape goat in the hands of opportunist Pakistani Politicians. They are being used indirectly to safeguard the vested interests of one or more out of Mahajir terrorists, Punjabi feudals, Sindhi waderas, Talibans in the form of MQM, PML (Q) - PML (N),and MMA despite of the fact that none of them have benefited Pakhtuns in the past.This is a wake up call for Pakhtuns.Welcome to the land of pure slaves. Pakhtuns are no more part of the great Pakhtun Durrani Empire. Hence the real challenging task for the Pakhtun leadership is to launch a strong Pakhtun National Movement across the controversial border in Afghanistan and Pakistan to regain the paradise lost of Pakhtuns in order to be able to face the techno-political challenges of the contemporary age.
The Pakhtun national movement possibly under the umbrella of PNDA and other Pakhtun nationalist organisations should inculcate a zeal and fervour in the hearts of Pakhtuns to achieve their lost glory.It should reach all Pakhtuns across the globe and in the nook and corner of Pakhtun land to invite them to become active members of Pakhtun national organic whole.
It should expose all the conspiracies against Pakhtuns by all institutions, organizations, parties, governments etc and impart political consciousness to the Pakhtun masses. The aim of the movement should be to attain political autonomy and strengthen the Pakhtun national character embodied in the Pakhtun ethical code of Pukhtunwali.It should at the same time propagate the Pakhtun code of life which is a beautiful and balanced combination of the secular and the sanctified cultural institutions of Pakhtun societal nomenclature called ”Hujra” and “Jumat” .It should highlight the fine balance present in the cultural life of Pakhtuns signifying the aesthetic outlook of Pakhtun social life.
Struggling to establish a Pakhtun society based on the tenets of Pukhtunwali with politico-economic independence and autonomy is an ideal worth struggling for to commence a new age of progress and prosperity for the inhabitants of the Pakhtun land. The so-called freedom of Pakhtuns in Pakistan is a fake freedom rather a trap of slavedom.Pakhtun leadership should strive to win political and economic freedom of the Pakhtun land which no doubt is currently depicting the picture of a living hell but in the words of John Milton “It is better to rule in hell than to serve in heaven”
