#WATCH | #OperationSindoor | In his address to the nation, PM Modi says, "On 22 April, in Pahalgam, the barbarism that terrorists have shown have shaken the country and the world. Those innocent people who were celebrating the leaves were killed in front of their families, after being asked about their religion..."
βBahawalpur.β
I still have chills in my heart from when I first heard that townβs name in late January 2002. For the 23 years since, I have reported on how Pakistani intelligence and military leaders have used that city β Bahawalpur β in the southern province of Punjab as a base for its homegrown domestic terrorists.
When I heard India bombed training camps in Pakistan this week in Operation Sindoor, in response to a Pakistani terrorist rampage in Indiaβs Kashmir state, I had one cityβs name on my lips: Bahawalpur.
Did India bomb Bahawalpur?
It did. I knew then India was striking actual hubs for Pakistanβs homegrown domestic terrorism.
Why do I know?
My friend, WSJ reporter Danny Pearl, went to Bahawalpur in December 2001 with a notebook and a pen. Gen. Pervez Musharraf had just promised he was shutting down Pakistanβs militant groups after a strike by Pakistanβs terrorists against the Parliament in India, and Danny reported on the militant offices in Bahawalpur.
He literally knocked on their doors. Dear Dr. @yudapearl, this story is a window into Dannyβs reporting enterprise. And because people will wonder: Danny was no cowboy. This was a calculated low-risk reporting trip because no journalist had been targeted for kidnapping in Pakistan. Around that time, Danny sent me an email: βIβm anxious to go to Afghanistan, but Iβm not anxious to die.β
What did Danny learn?
The militant training camps were open for business in Bahawalpur.
On Jan. 23, 2002, Danny left a home I had rented in Karachi, Pakistan, for an interview.
I learned Dannyβs fixer, Asif Farooqi, had arranged an interview for Danny through a man named βArif.β Danny didnβt know it but Arif was the PR man for a militant group, Harkutul Mujahadeen. What was Arifβs hometown? Bahawalpur.
The police launched a manhunt to find Arif in Bahawalpur. We learned Arifβs family faked a funeral for Arif. Police found him trying to board a bus in Muzaffarabad, across the country by Pakistanβs border with Kashmir.
It is another town India said it bombed terrorist training facilities.
Arif had handed Danny off to Omar Sheikh,a British-Pakistani dropout from the London School of Economics, radicalized in the 1990s in London mosques. He went to Pakistan to train in these militant training camps. Then he kidnapped tourists in India. He was caught and jailed but on Dec. 31, 1999, he was traded for hostages in the hijacking of Indian Airlines Flight 814.
Omar Sheikh was freed with Pakistani terrorist leader Masood Azhar, whose family was allegedly killed this week by Indiaβs air strike in Bahawalpur.
Did Pakistan jail Omar Sheikh and Masood Azhar when they returned to Pakistan with a third terrorist, freed from Indiaβs jails?
No. Pakistanβs military and intelligence gave them safe passage. They used them as weapons against India. But in fact these domestic terrorists have waged war against innocents in Pakistan, like civil society activists, Benazir Bhutto, Punjab Governor Salman Taseer, schoolchildren and countless others.
Their extremism has ruined Pakistan, and Pakistanis canβt blame America for creating the mujahideen to fight the Soviets in the 1980s.
Pakistan has had a duty to dismantle those terrorist bases β for even the safety of its own people. What India is doing is a strategic attack on terrorist bases Pakistani military and intelligence should have eliminated but never did in their obsession to take over Kashmir.
You will see parallels in the propaganda messages against India and Israel. Like Hamas, Pakistani terrorists crossed a border to kill. Now, Pakistani propagandists call themselves victims of their βfascistβ βcolonizerβ neighbor.
Itβs the Reverse Uno strategy of moral inversion, just like @stoolpresidente got from the Temple student who wonβt take responsibility for promoting the βHATE THE JEWSβ sign. Donβt fall for it. Nations, communities and people must own up to their extremism, from Bahawalpur to beyond.
