In a recent interview to Robert Satloff of the Washington Institute for Near East Policy, the renowned neocon Henry Kissinger once again publicly stated his sole concern that is looming in America. He rather echoes the angry pleas by the Israeli Government who are getting ever more concerned over the rise of “Islamic fundamentalism” in the Middle East and Asia, specifically in Pakistan.
 
On being asked to assess the danger of “Islamic extremism”, this is what Kissinger had to say: “The essence of jihad extremism is that one rejects the notion of the individual state. It’s a universal philosophy that has to be be generally applied to bring about the unified caliphate… It is a threat to almost every state, certainly to every state that has Islamic minorities… I think in many ways they use Israel as a rallying point for a much more fundamental concern, which is to spread the notion of a universal Islamic empire… I think he [Bush] has understood what the central problem of the period is… and the central problem that we now face is Islamic extremism…”
 
It is a well known fact that this very Kissinger was the person who according to Stephen Weissman and Herbery Krosney’s book “The Islamic Bomb” threatened the then President of Pakistan Zulfiqar Ali Bhutto that “Stop Chashma (Pakistan’s nuclear core center) or we will make an example of you”. This fact was also testified to by Z.A. Bhutto himself in his autobiography.
 
Remarks by people such as Henry Kissinger, who have always taken an anti-Islamic stance, are not applaudable and surprising. He speaks in the same mannerisms in which his other associates Bush, Cheney and Rumsfeld speak regarding Islam or Muslim affairs. Although what is indeed astounding is that people like these were once key policy-makers in the American Government, who had instigated much disorder across the geostrategic grounds during their respective administrative eras. And after coming across this new interview, I personally have become ever more convinced that what Bush uttered after September 11 i.e. This is a Crusade, etc. was not a so-called “slip of the tongue” but rather an honest confession from someone whose whole family background lies in close secret ties with the neoconservatives and Zionists. Notice how Kissinger openly praises Bush for “understanding the problem”. In the same interview forthwith, Kissinger is of the view that the forces must arrest the situation on-the-spot and “to demonstrate its incapacity to achieve its objectives”. I ask you, does that not mean that this is the sole reason why the highly-fascistly-conservative officials of the Bush government have waged wars in Iraq and Afghanistan? Is this not the reason why they are now focusing and diverting all their cunning military intellect towards the state of Pakistan?
 
Israeli Aircraft Agencies particularly the El Al Airlines are have been working on bases at the Indian city of Nagpur for quite some time now. Several reports are documented wherein we come to know the fact that Israeli fighter jet planes are stationed in quite large numbers at Nagpur, ready and active, that could at anytime aim and strike on Pakistani territory. India has just been allowed permission to purchase nuclear armaments from the U.S. through a new pact. More than a hundred thousand Indian troops have been stationed at several places across Afghanistan. Baloch “independence” activists such as Brahamdag Bugti, the grandson of Nawab Akbar Bugti, are in the pockets of the R.A.W. and C.I.A. who are themselves stationed at Kabul. The primary question is: Is Pakistan the target?
 
That’s where the anomaly lies. On the one hand, Pakistan indeed represents the strength of the Islamic World because of it solely having nuclear weaponry and technology, whereas on the other hand Israel cannot risk a direct confrontation with Pakistan in particular because many of the Gulf states and Asian countries most specifically China have huge interest-holdings and stakes at large around Pakistan. The city of Gwadar is constantly in the news as being the “Next Dubai”. So it’s not that simple. Whereas on the other hand from day one, Israel is in accordance with the fascist views of David ben Gurion that “We have to crush the Pakistanis first at any cost, through any means necessary” as reported in the Jewish Chronicle.
 
Islam in general whereas the nation of Pakistan in particular are the biggest hurdles and drawbacks for the Zionist hegemonies for a ‘New World Order’, after which Bush’s much-anticipated Armageddon will take place. It is then that the masses will come to realize how they blindly followed on whatever the mainstream media had told them to do. There’s a very famous saying that “To be enemies with America is to invite danger. Whereas to be friends with America is to invite doom and destruction” Mr. Asif Zardari’s visit to the U.S. for forging an alliance of the “Friends of Pakistan” will sooner or later show its true adverse effects upon the Pakistani nation as always, whenever the moment in time for it will be destined.
 
Indeed it is the system of Caliphate, with its uniform system of justice and security, that poses a real threat to the morally decaying sham of democracy, whose slogans are ever so loudly chanted here in Pakistan too. The Islamic Caliphate, in all its unified grandeur, will truly represent the vested interests of the Muslims of the World whose cries have been kept dormant and suppressed for decades now.
