U.S. expert compares Pak Army Chief Asim Munir to Osama Bin Laden, linking him to the Pahalgam terror attack.
Gunmen killed 28 persons on Tuesday when they opened fire on tourists at Pahalgam, Jammu and Kashmir's Baisaran Meadow. Since the Pulwama assault in 2019, this is one of the deadliest tragedies to have occurred in the region.
Narendra Modi, PM of India, held a meeting with CCS to discuss the situation on 23rd April. The government will suspend the 1960 Indus Waters Treaty and shut the integrated checkpost at Attari, Foreign Secretary Vikram Misri told. In addition, under the SAARC visa exemption program, it was decided that Pakistanis would no longer be allowed into India.
Michael Rubin, a former Pentagon official and senior scholar at the American Enterprise Institute, was unreserved in his opinion when he spoke to ANI. Michael Rubin described Asim Munir as a terrorist and added that Pakistan sponsors terrorism.
The only appropriate response from the US would be to formally label Pakistan a state supporter of terrorism and Asim Munir a terrorist. According to Rubin, Osama Bin Laden and Asim Munir are identical except for the fact that Asim Munir lives in a palace and Osama Bin Laden lives in a cave.
He accused Pakistan of long-standing assistance for Islamist groups and denounced Western indulgence. We know that Lashkar-e-Taiba is one among many terrorist organizations that have found a home in Pakistan. Unfortunately, the problem does not only grow within Pakistan but also continues within Bangladesh due to a lack of coordinated counterterrorism efforts, and with Pakistani officials acting for the West, said Rubin.
