Pakistan came into existence as a result of a struggle which did not have any roots in the masses. Since then it has been a laboratory for different imperialist powers to install dictatorial regimes of their choices to safeguard their vested interests. The latest puppet regime is that of an Indian immigrant Pervez Musharaf.

General Musharraf came into power as a result of Coup det�at .Pakistan army as usual supported his dictatorship. He has been playing a dirty game of power politics to justify his illegitimate regime with the help of secret agencies since October 1999.

He was given the opportunity to rule Pakistan after 9/11 by the US to own their war on terrorism. The task assigned to him was to control Afghanistan and also kill Pakhtuns in the tribal areas of Pakistan who were allegedly supporting the foreign terrorists despite of the fact that all the religious extremists were originally invited and encouraged by the secret agencies of Pakistan during the Afghan war.

Musharraf made the strategy of blackmailing US to support him and using army and secret agencies to legitimize his dictatorship.

The analysis of his strategy is as follows:

1) The targeted killing of the ISAF and Afghan forces by the secret agencies using Taliban as a result of which the Afghan and NATO forces reacted and their bombing killed innocent Afghans specially Pakhtuns.

2) This targeted killing of Afghan and ISAF forces pressurized the NATO and Afghan government and gave idea to the external world that the talibans are being supported from the tribal areas on the Pak-Afghan border. It also created hatred and mistrust in the Pakhtuns on both sides of the controversial border.

3) It was propagated by the secret agencies that the tribal people were supporting the talibans and talibanisation was going on in the tribal areas so a military operation in the tribal areas was necessary. Innocent Pakhtuns were massacred brutally .Media was not permitted to report the killing of Pakhtuns in the tribal areas. Using this propaganda Pakistan army justified the massacre of Pashtoons in the tribal areas as a result of its military operation.

4) On the other side of the border in Afghanistan ,due to targeted killing of the ISAF and Afghan forces the NATO forces expedited their bombings in Southern Afghanistan killing innocent Pakhtuns.

5) Detonation of Bombs were carried out in most of the cities of Pakhtunkhwa (NWFP) and Kurram agency during the Moharram and Rabiul awwal of 2007 so that people could confuse it with sectarian killings to give the impression to the world that talibanisation was being exported to the settled areas of NWFP too from the tribal areas. It also gave political advantage to the Musharraf Government. Consequently Pakistan sent a signal to the US to win her sympathies and financial aid in the war against terror.

The second card played by the Presidential team which also affected Pakhtuns badly was challenging the sanctity of Judiciary by showing power to a judge was upholding the sanctity of Judiciary in military ruled state like Pakistan and challenged the privatization of national assets like Pakistan Steel, kidnapping of those persons who tried to expose the injustices done by the ISI and MI and to revert the attention of the masses from other issues like:

1) The growing unrest of Pakhtuns due to injustice being done to Pukhtunkhwa for example in the case of water and its net profit.

2) The question of Provincial Autonomy.

3) The importance of Pak-Afghan Jirga to settle the difference of opinion over cross border infiltration into Afghanistan by Pakistani agencies and killings of innocent Pakhtuns on both sides of the controversial border.

The third step of Musharraf regime which affected Pakhtuns was when the street of Mardan and Peshawar were resonating with the noise of bombs blasted by Pakistani agencies using the name of ISI backed Taliban. The intention was to project Pushtunkhwa as a disturbed area lacking peace and to prove that Pakistan was trying to justify the promised 3 billion dollar aid from US for curbing the war against terror by projecting Pushtunkhwa as the next area which Taliban are going to hijack. The interview of Ryan Crocker with AVT Khyber confirmed the strategy of Pakistani due to which they had to extend the plan of hijacking the settled areas of Pushtunkhwa in addition to its tribal areas in the name of Taliban by sending threatening letters to saloon owners, CD shops and girl schools.

Still more steps are expected from the GHQ to extend the military .As of now legislature, judiciary and media have already been jeopardized to achieve the result of extending military tenure.Near future will show the reactions of all these actions which are being witnessed by the people of Pakistan who now know all the fake techniques of the military regime to prolong its unjust rule in Pakistan.

The whole aim of military regime is nothing else except the extension of its tenure. The strongest argument to be used will be the possible attack of US on Iran but even if it doesn�t happen the Plan B is already in place to keep the reigns of power in Military arms.

Pakhtuns should not get erred in pointing out their enemy. It has always been the religious theocracy and civil cum military beaureocracy which has made plots to destroy and devastate Pakhtun regions and sacrifice Pakhtuns at the altar of their vested interests.
