Tribal Groups & Terrorism
General
(Retd.) Hameed Gul says there are 35 groups in tribal areas of
Pakistan. But we should remember there are 'basically' two main groups:
1- Innocent Tribal people who have been living there since generations
& who fought every army that tried
to invade their land including the British. 2- The gangsters and
hoodlums who are funded by external agencies to destabilize Pakistan
(these include many foreign terrorists as well who have come there via
Afghanistan border). AND WE SHOULD KNOW THAT PEOPLE FROM THE FIRST GROUP
HAVE ALSO BEEN JOINING THE SECOND GROUP DUE TO SOME WRONG POLICIES OF
PAKISTAN GOVERNMENT, LIKE BEING A PART OF "WAR ON TERROR" IN 2003 WHEN
THERE WERE NO TERRORISTS IN THAT REGION - TTP WAS FORMED MUCH LATER,
PERHAPS IN 2007 OR 2005.
SO
FOR THE WELFARE OF THOSE IN THE FIRST GROUP (INNOCENT TRIBAL PEOPLE),
THE IDEA OF NEGOTIATIONS SHOULD BE WELCOMED BY ALL. WHEN WE OPPOSE DRONE
STRIKES BECAUSE OF COLLATERAL DAMAGE, THEN HOW CAN WE ENSURE THAT OUR
ARMED FORCES WILL NOT TAKE LIVES OF INNOCENT PEOPLE (OLD MEN, CHILDREN,
WOMEN & GOOD MEN IN THE AREA) IN THE PROCESS OF CRUSHING THE REAL
TERRORIST GROUPS? NEGOTIATIONS ARE ONLY SUPPOSED TO BREAK THE STRENGTH
OF TERRORISTS AND TO ISOLATE THOSE INNOCENT GROUPS WHO ARE MISLED BY
FAKE PREACHERS IN THE AREA FUNDED BY OUR ENEMIES. EVENTUALLY, THE
TERRORISTS HAVE TO BE CRUSHED, OF COURSE!
