US, Israeli Hands in Pakistan Terrorist Attack Not Ruled Out
By: Kayhan Int’l Staff Writer
Iran’s sympathies are with the Pakistani government and nation, including the near and dear ones of the victims of the massive terrorist attack on a passenger train in Balochistan province that has ended with the timely action by the security forces.
According to an official statement from Islamabad, “346 hostages were freed and over 30 terrorists were killed during the operation.”
Of the 450 passengers taken hostage on the Jaffar Express by terrorists who had blocked a tunnel on the railroad, 27 off-duty soldiers who were passengers were among those killed.
The terrorist assault claimed by a group calling itself the Balochistan Liberation Army (BLA) and accompanied by a video of an explosion on the track, showed dozens of gunmen emerging from hiding places in the mountains and storming onto the carriages.
It is obvious that such an audacious terrorist attack was not possible unless logistically supported by the enemies of peace and stability in our region, especially the US and the illegal Zionist entity.
The Pakistani government has not referred to US involvement and according to observers, may not say anything in this regard, because of the undue influence of Washington on segments of the official circles in Islamabad.
American support, along with Zionist meddling, should not be ignored by the general Pakistani public, in view of the undeniable fact that Donald Trump or any other president in the so-called White House, are never the friend of Pakistan.
Israel after its genocide in Gaza and its continued brutal suppression of the Palestinian people all over the usurped land has already weakened Syria by making deep inroads into that country and forcing the takfiri clique in control of Damascus, to say it has no problem with the Zionist entity.
Israel is in full control of most of the pro American Arab states in the region, and now aims to weaken and destabilize nuclear-powered Pakistan.
Trump and his fellow criminals in Washington fully support such a policy that also includes threats and pressures against the Islamic Republic of Iran.
In view of these undeniable facts, it is hoped that an independent probe will be carried out by the security officials of Pakistan who ought not hesitate to name the US and Israel in the Balochistan train terrorist attack, on the basis of concrete evidence.
