Last night, once again, the brutal policy of the Pakistani military regime revealed itself in the smoke of explosions over the skies of Kabul. The sound of bombs that shook the city was not merely the sign of an attack; it was the cry of a regime that seeks its survival in the blood of others. The bombing of a drug rehabilitation center was not an act of war, but a blatant and shameless crime against humanity. There were no trenches, no soldiers, and no battle underway there. Helpless individuals were lying inside, receiving treatment in the hope of reclaiming their lives, yet the blind bombs of the Pakistani military regime cast them into the abyss of death.
This brutality is not merely an incident of a single night; it is the continuation of a bloody policy pursued by an arrogant and ruthless circle within the Pakistani military regime. At the forefront of this policy stand Asim Munir and the regime’s defense minister Khawaja Asif, figures who in order to preserve their power, fuel the flames of war and regard the continuation of regional instability as their strategy. Their politics does not understand the language of peace. Their language is gunpowder, and their logic is bombardment.
Even along the so-called Durand line, this bloody scenario repeats itself every day. The artillery of the Pakistani military regime rains fire on Afghan homes, villages disappear in clouds of gunpowder, and defenseless people fall victim to these blind attacks. Women, children, youth, and the elderly, those who have neither trenches nor weapons, become casualties of these brutal projectiles. This is not a war; it is a form of barbarism carried out only by regimes that possess a corrupt moral compass and a cruel mindset.
This oppressive and puppet regime has trampled all limits of Islam, humanity, and Muslim values. The very hands that should have been raised to protect Muslim lives were turned into instruments for killing defenseless people. When oppression reaches such heights that it breaks all boundaries of humanity, history’s response will not be gentle. All limits will be broken in its face. The pillars of tyranny will tremble, the arrogance of despotic rulers will crumble, and the crowns of pride will collapse under the weight of their own crimes.
History has always been a ruthless judge for tyrants. There is one law that never changes: states and regimes that work to destabilize others will soon face the same waves of instability themselves. Whoever sets fire to a neighbor’s house will quickly see that the flames have reached their own roof. The gunpowder prepared for someone else will eventually ignite the very hand that lit the fire.
Afghanistan is a land that has defeated empires of force. This nation has a history of suffering, but it has no history of defeat. Bombings may shake cities, but they cannot break the will of a people, because the blood of the oppressed is not merely blood, it is a cry for justice, the voice of history, and the fire that will ultimately shake the foundations of the tyrant’s throne.
If today the arrogance of Pakistan’s military regime revels in the roar of gunpowder, tomorrow the harsh judgment of history will topple the palace of that very pride. That day will surely come when the rulers of oppression will collapse under the weight of their crimes. Every single act will be accounted for, and the blood of the innocent will speak its final verdict in the court of justice.
