WMD
– Weapon of Mass Disruption attack on Pakistan Armed Forces
As much
as we condemn attack on Hamid Mir, we must castigate and denunciate those who
with no evidence attacked Pak Army. According to Sun Tsu; “To subdue the enemy without
fighting is the supreme excellence”. Until further investigation, this incidence
should be considered as a part of psychological warfare. The incidence itself
can be considered as low intensity “WMD – Weapon of Mass Disruption” to disrupt
and divide society, increase chaotic conditions.
Pakistan is under socio-economical and
socio-psychological attack from its enemies who very much like to denuclearize
the country. An undeclared war with ferocious intensity! Incidence of Hamid Mir
is a notch up in an effort to keep Pakistan Army busy within and not focus on
the exodus of the US and NATO from Afghanistan. This undeclared PSYOP warfare
campaign is a war of the minds and nerves.
Primary target of WMD (weapon of mass disruption) is sight and sound. We
have both in HM incidence – sound of GEO, JANG and DAWN and sight of HM lying
in hospital. In this attack PSYOP is disseminated through audio visual means (TV), visual
media, political leaders (PM
and other govt officials with vested interest) and
the talk show pundits paid by their handlers.
It does not matter how the WMD was
sent or fired, but the message it carries and this message affect the
recipients- Pakistanis.
So a word of advice for Pakistanis is what the
enemy’s objective is to appeal to intelligence, reason, and emotions to get
Pakistanis to think and act as the enemy desire. The enemy wants to persuade
Pakistani nation to disassociate with the ONLY institution that guarantee their
freedom and safety. Pakistanis as a nation must stand up against their own
media by boycotting and ostracizing GEO, JANG and DAWN. Use the American public strategy of hurting
these bigots where it impact the most- the pocket book. While proscribing these
media hubs, we must display positivity, have faith in our belief, and remain
discipline by remembering Shaheed Salahuddin – a journalist of much higher
caliber killed in Karachi in December 1994, whose killers yet to be
apprehended. Salahuddin family was offered 5 lakh rupees by Nawaz Sharif but no
judicial commission was announced then.
