There is no doubt that while fighting against the occupying forces,
the Taliban have been conducting ambush assaults and suicide attacks
on the NATO forces and claim responsibility. Last year, western
commanders and high officials have admitted that level of insurgency
has increased in Afghanistan.
In fact, Indian intelligence agency, RAW has been availing this golden
opportunity of perennial militancy-to target the NATO troops and
military installations in Afghanistan. Such acts of sabotage are also
being conducted inside Pakistan, which also include attacks on the
NATO's supply-trucks and containers passing through Pakistan.
Question arises in the mind of people as to how RAW can conduct
subversive activities against the US-led NATO interest both in
Afghanistan and Pakistan. The reply is quite clear, which can better
be understood by students of international relations.
All the developments in Afghanistan cannot be seen in isolation
because they have a co-relationship with Indian other regional
designs. India is determined to become a greater power of Asia, and
wants to go even to the extent of war with nuclear power like Pakistan
and China. In this context, Indian Army Chief General Deepak Kapoor
vocally said on December 29, 2009 that Indian Army "is now revising
its five-year-old doctrine" and is preparing for a "possible two-front
war with China and Pakistan."
No country can ignore its defence, while its enemy has aggressive
designs. In response to New Delhi's open threat, on January 2,
Pakistan's Joint Chiefs of Staff Committee (JCSC) Chairman Gen. Tariq
Majid stated, "The Indian Army Chief's statement exhibits a lack of
strategic acumen. He further said that such a path could "fix India on
a self-destruct mechanism." A day ago, Pakistan's Chief of Army Staff
General Ashfaq Kayani warned that the situation would get out of
control in case of any dangerous adventurism of New Delhi.
It is notable that in the recent past, although the US President Obama
has announced that he will send an extra 30,000 US troops to fight the
war in Afghanistan, yet his revised strategy also includes withdrawal
of forces, which will start in July 2011. In this context, on November
15, last year, US Secretary of State, Hillary Clinton had already
revealed, "We're not interested in staying in Afghanistan" for a long
time and set a start date for military withdrawal.
It is mentionable that during his trip to the USA in 2009, Indian
Prime Minister Manmohan Singh left no stone unturned in convincing
Washington by raising alleged concerns regarding Pakistan and
Afghanistan in connection with militancy. In his interview to the
Washington Post and Newsweek, Singh remarked that India "wants to
resolve all outstanding issues with Pakistan", while accusing the
latter of "sponsoring terrorism." He called for the US pressure on
Islamabad to rein in extremists. He also said that he would encourage
the American leadership to stay in Afghanistan. Besides, Singh warned
that Afghanistan could fall into a civil war if the US exited.
On the other side, frustrated in achieving their aims, NATO countries
have seriously been considering withdrawal of their troops from
Afghanistan in future owing to growing domestic pressure coupled with
daily casualties of their personal and rising cost of war.
Particularly, America has been bearing huge losses, amounting seven
trillion dollars in the total cost of war against terrorism, increase
in defence budget and acute financial crisis inside the US homeland.
If US-led NATO forces pull out of Afghanistan, Karzai regime will fall
like a house of cards due to the Taliban insurgency. Hence, India has
planned to entrap the US permanently in Afghanistan in order to
achieve its secret designs against Pakistan and China-in the Indian-
held Kashmir by damaging American global and regional interests, and
thus wants to get further benefits from the US and other developed
countries so as to become a superpower.
Notably, American dependence on Pakistan for war against terrorism and
for close economic cooperation with China, and in future, withdrawal
of foreign powers from Afghanistan will roll back Indian clandestine
agenda which is part of its regional ambition against Islamabad and
Beijing.
Sometimes surprises happen in world politics which is an arena of
great complications, and states' shrewd strategies are followed by all
unfair means. In this respect, renowned thinker, Morghenthau, while
echoing the thoughts of Machiavelli indicates that sometimes rulers
have to act upon immoral activities like falsehood, deceit and theft.
In this connection, India is determined to obtain its inter-related
aims to dominate other regional countries. Particularly, it considers
Pakistan an obstacle in its way.
Under the pretext of Talibinisation of Afghanistan and Pakistan,
Indian secret agency, RAW with the support of Israeli Mossad has well-
established its networks. Particularly, India has been running secret
operations against Pakistan from its consulates in Mazar-i-Sharif,
Jalalabad, Kandhar and other sensitive parts of the Pak-Afghan border.
It has spent millions of dollars in Afghanistan to strengthen its
grip. And from there, Indian RAW has been sending well-trained
militants along with arms to Pakistan so as to attack the security
personnel including western nationals. New Delhi which wants to get
strategic depth against Pakistan has not only increased its military
troops in the counry, but has also decided to set up cantonments. In
this respect, puppet regeme of Hamid Karzai encouraged India in using
the Border Roads Organisation in constructing the ring roads by
employing Indo-Tibeten police force for security.
Meanwhile, admiting Indian activities in Afghanistan, on September 20,
NATO commander, Gen. McChrystal in his report on the Afghan war had
admitted: "Indian political and economic influence is increasing in
Afghanistan including significant development efforts…is likely to
exacerbate regional tensions."
Worried about withdrawal of the US-led allies from Afghanistan, India
with the covert support of Indo-Israeli lobbies has already started a
propaganda campaign in the west to implicate Islamabad.
Nevertheless, with its ambitious policy including development and
acquisition of sophisticated arms from the most developed countries,
New Delhi tries to achieve its secret goals, coupled with its size at
any cost. For this purpose, RAW has been given a carte blanche to
target the US-backed forces in Afghanistan. In this context, with the
help of Indian so-called Muslim scholars, RAW has set up a number of
secret mudrassas in India from where well-trained agents of RAW are
being sent to Afghanistan to join the ranks and files of Taliban-and
are conducting various activities such as plantation of roadside
bombs, deployment of mines and suicide attacks on NATO's personnel and
installations so as to distort the image of Pakistan in the eyes of
America and Europe.
In this context, RAW has also intensified subversive activities in
Pakistan where Afghan-like militancy is continuously being supported
by RAW agents. This agency has also been given a free hand by New
Delhi to attack NATO's supply vehicles in Pakistan.
While in case of both Afghanistan and Pakistan, sometimes Taliban
claims responsibility for their acts of sabotage. But fact of the
matter is that in most of the cases, RAW's technical experts arrange
video movies and tapes to show that Taliban have accepted the
responsibility in order to conceal the real face of India.
Besides other assaults on NATO troops and bases, on December, 2009 a
well-planned suicide attack killed seven CIA officers at a highly-
protected military base in Afghanistan. In this regard, The Washington
post reported, "the suicide attack was one of the deadliest blows ever
against the CIA…a bomber managed to penetrate the defences of the
'forward base', detonating an explosives belt in a room described as a
gym."
American military officials are worried as to how this base became
vulnerable to insurgents' target. Although the Taliban have claimed
responsibility for the incident, yet the authenticity of this message
is either not clear or the same is fake. In fact, hired Muslim agents
of RAW have conducted this suicide attacks in the guise of the
Taliban. Same is also true regarding Pakistan where similar pattern is
being adopted by the agents of RAW, who sometimes kill the foreigners
including Chinese nationals. Other subversive activities and targeted
killings of Pakistanis by RAW in our country are not only to create
instability, but also to confuse the massacre of westerners in order
to hide the real identity of the Indian agents.
