WAR….
These three letters have such a strong impact and influence that It can destroy millions of people within the snap of our fingers.
.
What does war mean? Does it mean winning? Does it mean capturing the assets of enemy? Does it mean making them slaves and using them for work? War in my opinion, in my dictionary means nothing but D.E.A.T.H, D.E.S.T.R.U.C.T.I.O.N.
.
Just take a look at the history of the countries who fought war. What happened to them? What did they gain? What did they lose?
.
In The World Wars
Millions of people died, trees uprooted, buildings destroyed, animals massacred, women and children were kept as slaves.
.
Now let’s have a look at our own history, what happened to us?
The war of 1965, the war we fought. Yes WE, the CIVILIANS, alongside the Army. We fought like brave men, like the men of soil. But what for? For another war in 1971?
.
Again in 1971 the enemy attacked us, another war, another row of people on both sides dying, another local massacre. What happened afterwards?
.
Nothing but this constant threat of having a war. Our Neighbor doesn’t want to live with peace, the actual problem is that It cannot see us Flourishing. Past few months have been super amazing for us in terms of having relationships with other countries….
.
The men across the border are Three times more than us. Have you ever thought why don’t they attack in the daylight? Are they vampires who can’t stand the Sun? They are more than that. Even with the Army more than us they’re afraid of us. Because it’s not the Quantity that matters but the Quality. I always wondered that why don’t they start actual war with the army almost 3 time more than us…. .
Because they’re afraid, afraid of us, afraid of our ARMY, THEY’RE AFRAID OF THE PAKISTAN.
They know the power of
نصر اللہ من فتح قریب(with the help of GOD, the victory is near)۔
۔
I AM PROUD OF NOT ONLY THE ARMED FORCES BUT OF MY PEOPLE WHO DO NOT INITIATE WAR, WE ARE A PEACEFUL NATION BECAUSE WE KNOW WHAT IT MEANS TO HAVE WAR, WE KNOW WHAT IT MEANS TO SEE OUR LOVED ONES DYING IN FRONT OF OUR OWN EYES. .
I AM PROUD OF MY NATION.
I AM PAKISTAN.
