The birthday of terrorism
By DR A.H. KHAYAL October 9, 2008 America has offered to train Pakistan soldiers. What a bizarre offer! America has never had soldiers as fighters. She has always fought her wars with her weapons and not with her soldiers.
The soldiers are there just to carry about the weapons. The weapons do the real fighting. The soldiers are essentially spectators. It is great fun for them. What a ridiculous offer America has made to Pakistan! How can a country which herself doesn't have genuine soldiers train soldiers of another country? The secret is known only to America.
The American soldiers are very clever business guys. They are not paid for fighting. They are paid for giving company to the weapons. The actual fighting is done by the weapons.
A genuine soldier is a soldier who fights with the weapons which are qualitatively on a par with the enemy's weapons. If a soldier has supremely superior weapons as compared with the enemy's weapons, he is not a genuine soldier. And the fight is not a genuine fight.
It is America's weapons which are her real soldiers. And it is the weapons which win her wars. But, horribly unjustly, it is the soldiers who get the bravery-awards. Actually, only the weapons deserve the honours. But the weapons are deprived of the awards. they must be despondent.
