Owaisi's Strong Stance Against Pakistan and Turkey
Asaduddin Owaisi, the leader of AIMIM, has garnered attention for his firm stance against Pakistan, recently delivering a pointed message that also implicates Turkey, a nation that has shown unwavering support for Pakistan. Owaisi, known for his aggressive rhetoric against Pakistan, has now raised concerns regarding Turkey's contradictory actions. He argues that while Turkey takes a hard line against terrorism on its own soil, it simultaneously backs Pakistan, which is often labeled as a global hub for terrorism.
Owaisi emphasized the need to make Turkey aware of its contradictions. He pointed out that Turkey is the only country that bombards terrorist organizations, including Kurdish groups, on its territory. He noted that prior to reaching agreements with Iraq, Turkey was also conducting airstrikes against terrorist factions there, and now it continues to target such camps in Syria. This raises the question, he argues, of how Turkey can challenge India when it is willing to eliminate terrorists on foreign soil.
He further stated that attacks are occurring on Indian soil, affecting soldiers, and criticized the Pakistani administration for its inability to manage its economy effectively. Owaisi condemned the divisive tactics employed by Pakistan, which seeks to create rifts between Hindus and Muslims in India. He highlighted recent attacks in Muridke and Bahawalpur, asserting that the Pakistani army is behind these incidents, which involve terrorists linked to the U.S.
Owaisi reminded that Pakistan often overlooks the fact that over 230 million Muslims reside in India, and that the ancestors of these individuals rejected the two-nation theory. He stated, 'We reject hatred; we have dismissed the two-nation theory proposed by Jinnah and accepted India as our homeland, where we will continue to live.'
Moreover, AIMIM has accused Pakistan of attempting to divide India along religious lines, aiming to incite further conflict among Indian Muslims, Hindus, and other communities. Owaisi questioned why Pakistan engages in bombings at Afghan border posts if it claims to support the two-nation theory, pointing out that Afghan and Iranian border posts are also manned by Muslims. He characterized this behavior as part of Pakistan's deep state, which uses Islam as a facade to promote illegal activities and terrorism, a strategy they have employed against India for the past 75 years.
