If you put lipstick on a pig… Pak Army Chief Asim Munir and Osama are alike, former US military officer gets angry
a
Michael Rubin, former Pentagon official and senior fellow at the American Enterprise Institute, said that the US should immediately declare Pakistan a state sponsoring terrorism. He directly said that the Pakistani army chief is also promoting terrorism like Osama bin Laden.
Rubin told ANI, along with declaring Pakistan a state sponsoring terrorism, Munir should also be declared a terrorist. Asim and Osama are the same. The only difference is that Osama bin Laden lived in a cave and Asim Munir lives in a house like a royal palace. Rubin even said, this attack is shocking, but it is true that even if you apply lipstick to a pig, it still remains a pig. Pakistan may keep denying terrorism, but it is true that it nurtures it.
Just as Sikhs were massacred in Chhattisinghpura during the visit of US President Bill Clinton to India in 2000, similarly this cowardly act has been done during the visit of US Vice President JD Vance. America should not give Pakistan a way to escape. Rubin has also compared the October 7 Hamas attack on Israel and the Pahalgam attack.
He said that innocent civilians were targeted in both the attacks, liberal Jews there and middle class Hindu families in India. In Israel, on October 7, 2023, liberal Jews were similarly attacked, who advocate normalcy in the Gaza Strip.
By targeting middle class Hindus in the resort of Pahalgam, Pakistan is again playing the same trick. It is India’s responsibility to deal with Pakistan and its intelligence agency ISI in the same way as Israel has done with Hamas. It is time to declare ISI a terrorist group and eliminate its top officers.
India has retaliated by taking tough steps like banning visas for Pakistani citizens, closing the Attari border and cancelling the Indus Water Treaty. The option of military action cannot be ruled out either.
