Pakistan political groups oppose air space to America

16-09-2001

Islamabad, Sept 16, IRNA -- An All Parties Conference (APC) Sunday demanded of the government of Pakistan not to allow any country to use land and air space and take the nation into confidence about the
developments after terrorist attacks in the United States.
According to NNI, the APC, attended by some 40 parties, urged the
U.S. President George Bush not to rush for any pre-calculated,
illogical and unjustified military option against any single country
or person without any substantial proof as such a move would amount to
terrorism.
The conference, organized By Jamaat-e-Islami, noted with concern
that there is no justification on the part of Washington to put
illogic demands to Pakistan for paving its way to strike Afghanistan
without even establishing the real culprits behind the WTC and
Pentagon tragedy.
It called upon the United States to also look into the real
causes leading to such scale reaction by the forces involved in the
Sept 11 terror attacks against the Unites States.
The APC said that despite spontaneous condemnation of these
attacks by the entire Muslim world, the Muslim community was being
harassed unjustifiably in the Unites States and their life and
property was no more safe there.
It expressed shock and grief over the loss of innocent human lives
in New York and Washington and urged the U.S-based Pakistani community
to take active part in the relief and rehabilitation operations on
humanitarian grounds.
The APC raised sympathy with the victims of this tragedy and
condoled with the bereaved families, observing that the level of
planning of the terrorist attacks itself reflect that it was not the
job of Palestinians, Arabs and Afghans.
"Rather, it might be the handy work of Israel's secret agency and
its other allies having sophisticated know how in the modern day
technology."
