Shocking and confounded resemblance – Genocide of Bengalis and Pushtoon
By: Earthman, International Professor
Soon after receiving power a few weeks back Sheikh Haseena demanded enquiry of war crimes committed by Pakistan army, their legislative assembly passed same demand through a resolution as well. By studying claims of Government of Bangla Desh and allegations of war crimes against Pakistan army a person would be shocked by confounded similarities in historical events in the course of genocide of Pakistan national Pushtoon living anywhere in the country.
If you may rewind your memories to 1970-1971 periods before surrender of our brave army, characters are same but only faces have been changed. Think about Gen Tikka Khan, a criminal who ordered murder of hundred thousand Muslim Bengali Pakistanis. There is a long list of sex crimes, loot and plunders of Generals as well. Sectarian appointments at Dhaka started from Hashim Reza who was appointed as Chief Secretary of East Pakistan and finally the day of surrender when Alamdar Reza was Commissioner of Dhaka. Ispahani’s and Haroon’s were sucking East Pakistan as those are plundering Pakistan today. Role of media is not different and these days same columnists who were spreading hate against Bengalis are still alive and now their target is Pushtoon citizens. Politicians are playing same role, so resemblance is shocking. It is a history which requires lot of space but a few points worth resemblance are here as under:
Zulfiqar Ali Bhutto and his Peoples Party were main characters to justify Bengalis as terrorists and anti-State. If you may have a chance to read old columns or statements of scholar of PPP including Munoo Bhai, Nazir Naji, Khalid Hasan, Haneef Ramay, J A Rahim, Kausar Niazi and so many others, those were busy in declaring Bengalis as Mukti Bahni, today in the same tone those are declaring Pushtoon as terrorists. Killer of Bengali peoples Gen Tikka Khan later became secretary general of PPP. Today same role Gen Ashfaq Pervez Kiyani is playing, who is guide of current Zardari Party, and he is mirror image of Gen Tikka Khan. Bhutto was heir of Sikandar Mirza and Yahya Khan, where as Zardari is successor of Mush. Agha Hilali played a shameless role being a CIA operative when he was Ambassador of Pakistan at Washington at the time of surrender of East Pakistan, later he and his son both joined PPP, current poisonous articles of Zaffar Hilali in Daily News and Dawn is witness how severe sectarian fanatics are those. And today Husain Haqqani son in law of Mirza Abul Hasan ex ambassador to Washington is playing same sectarian games, so nothing is changed except faces, whereas his Irani daughter is defecto first lady of president house like Naheed Sikandar Mirza.
Sex crimes of Gen Yahya Khan everybody knows and his stories of pissing in paints are well on record and Gen Musharraf was silhouette of Yahya Khan. Yahya was forced to leave president house in the same manner as today Mush has gone. Mush was also a soulless and licentious person, who felt pride in writing name of his mother as award winning dancer in his book and his daughter is known stripper of Karachi. Zulfiqar Bhutto in 1974 conserved all wrong doings of Yahya through an ordinance, made Yahya Khan and his buddies as free being. Like today Mush is enjoying at a million ponds bungalow adjacent to palaces of Rahman Malik, Zardari and Altaf Husain at London on the same street. There is no doubt that PPP was main party in breaking of Pakistan. NAP of Wali Khan played same role which it is playing today, against Pakistan.
In the main report of Humood ur Rahman Commission (mentioned as HR report below at some places) the allegations, and the evidence relating to the personal conduct of Generals including Yahya Khan, Abdul Hamid Khan, Khuda Dad Khan, Amir Abdullah Khan Niazi, Jehanzeb and Brig Hayatullah were discussed. From above report some Para’s are worth reading such as
1. Observations as regards Lt. Gen Amir Abdullah Niazi:
Quote: “…the graveness of the allegations made against Lt. Gen. Niazi is that he was making money in the handling of Martial Law cases while posted as G.O.C Sialkot and later as G.O.C and Martial Law Administrator at Lahore; that he was on intimate terms with one Mrs. Saeeda Bukhari of Gulberg, Lahore, who was running a brothel under the name of Senorita Home, and was also acting as the General's tout for receiving bribes and getting things done; that he was also friendly with another woman called Shamini Firdaus of Sialkot who was said to be playing the same role as Mrs. Saeeda Bukhari of Lahore; that during his stay in East Pakistan he came to acquire a stinking reputation owing to his association with women of bad repute, and his nocturnal visits to places also frequented by several junior officers under his command; and that he indulged in the smuggling of Pan from East Pakistan to West Pakistan”. Unquote (A H Kardar, leader of PPP was a witness against him in this case).
Comments: Gen Mush was pioneer of Cat Houses, brothel centers, massage parlors and usually has been enjoying strip club facilities at Ajoka Theatre and Rafi Peer Theatre etc. Aunty Shamim Naqvi and a lot of brothel owner and NGO’s had the backing of GHQ and President House.
2. Embezzlement of 135, 00, 000:
Quote: “Maj Gen Jamshed Khan had brought some currency with her while being evacuated from Dacca on the morning of 16th of December 1971. He further alleged that Lt. Col Rashid, Col. Staff of the East Pakistan Civil Armed Forces, commanded by Maj Gen. Jamshed Khan, was also reported to have been involved in the misappropriation of currency. It further came to our notice that the General had distributed some money among persons who left East Pakistan by helicopters on the morning of 15th or 16th of December 1971”. Unquote
3. Large scale looting and theft:
Quote: “Maj. Gen. Nazar Hussain Shah, Maj. Gen. M.H Ansari GOC, 9 Div, disclosed that these officers and their units were involved in large scale looting, including the theft of Rs. 1, 35, 00,000 from the National Bank Treasury at Siraj Ganj”. Unquote
Atrocities by the Pakistan Army:
Currently peoples are watching on 100 plus TV channels, Urdu and English papers half truths against Pushtoon peoples, blaming and labeling them as terrorists, Indian agents or against Islam etc. Same charges were labeled against poor Bengali peoples. And after surrender of Dhaka, during PPP’s era same kind of charges were labeled against poor Bloch peoples, and F-104 and MIG fighter jets were used to target them. Those were declared insurgents, terrorists and anti-state elements as well. Dating and love affairs between army and PPP always bring death and destruction for innocent citizens of Pakistan.
Read and compare the circumstances which lead surrender of army as illustrated in H R report that is what happening at Swat, Malakand, FATA and Baluchistan now a day that dead civil administration is playing in the hands of army generals:
Quote: “In the situation that developed after the military action of the 25th of March 1971, the civil administration in East Pakistan practically came to a standstill, and the burden of running the Province fell heavily upon the Army Officers. Their involvement in civil administration continued unabated even after the induction of a sizable number of senior civil servants from West Pakistan, including the Chief Secretary, the Inspector General of Police and at least two Division Commissioners……… The Army's involvement in civil administration did not come to an end even with the installation of a civilian governor (Dr. A.M Malik), and the ministers appointed by him……. The installation of a civilian governor in September 1971 was merely to hoodwink public opinion at home and abroad. Poor Dr. Malik and his ministers were figureheads only. Real decisions in all important matters still lay with the Army. I remember the first picture of the new Cabinet. Maj. Gen Farman Ali was prominently visible sitting on the right side of the Governor, although he was not a member of the Cabinet." Unquote
Impact of Military operations like Rah e Haq, Rast or Rah e Nijat:
Army happily uses Islamic terms to play with the emotion of army soldiers, made them intoxicated to kill their brethrens on falls propaganda, during army operations special allowances and free ration made them blind bull. In the wordings of H R report read below:
Quote: 25th of March 1971, when units of the Pakistan Army undertook "sweep operations" throughout the Province to deal with the Awami League insurgents. The Army had to go out into the countryside without adequate logistic arrangements, and was compelled, at least in the early stages of its operations to take its requirements of food grains and other essential supplies from civilian sources. …….There is evidence to the effect that civilian shops and stores were broken into by the troops without preparing any record of what was taken and from where. Unquote
Rape of women: The army generals and government of PPP is schooling us morality, Islam and trying to push peoples to rise against Taliban (read it as Pushtoon). Whereas history is witness that sky has watched as many morally corrupt generals and PPP’s politicians, there is no example in other civilized nations. Zulfiqar Ali Bhutto himself was a true follower of Yahya Khan in character, not only he was alcoholic but kept hidden mistresses as well, names of two three are on record, his appointed Governors, Ministers and top party official were so morally corrupt that their details are available on record and part of history. Corruption is a diaper baby of their home, right from creation of PPP; its top leadership remained involved in corruption including Benazir, who received kick many times on the charges of corruption. See what H R report says:
Quote: About moral character of army the remarks made by this last witness are highly significant: "The troops used to say that when the Commander (Lt. Gen. Niazi) was himself a raper, how they could be stopped. From the mass of evidence coming before the Commission from witnesses, both civil and military, there is little doubt that Gen. Niazi unfortunately came to acquire a bad reputation in sex matters, and this reputation has been consistent during his postings in Sialkot, Lahore and East Pakistan. Unquote
There are hundreds of other known examples; a few months back Irshad Ahmad Haqqani of Jang group was hired to conduct DNA tests on under wears of army officers who were alleged in sex crimes; however his home laboratory declared them innocent in his report published in daily Jang.
We feel no pleasure in proving that our beloved forces are rapists, neither self created illusion of patriotism ever allowed us to even think about their involvement in crimes. Those are sacred, Mr. clean and above any law. Now since General Kiyani, Air Marshall Rao Qamar and Zardari are dosing us with lectures of sins of Puashtoon (Taliban), scaring us with the ISI floated fabricated storey of Chand Bibi, those have informed us that Taliban are not circumcised, are against women, and there are dozens of other stories circulating in media. But none of allegation and crimes against them is as serious as that is in the fold of Pakistan army and PPP’s leaders.
Don’t go away; Mush was a Knight of prostitution dens, all urban areas became heaven for brothels during his army rule. Cat houses, Sufi centers, strip clubs and theatres reflects his personal character and over all culture of army. (Please read some stories on following given links for more information). Culture of leaders of PPP and ANP is so shameless that some books would be required to explain their naked life. Some NGO’s who patrons prostitution in Pakistan needs no justification. As an example a few quick examples: At least five ministers of PPP are directly involved in women abuse or caught at brothels. Minister of Info Kaira, whose ancestral profession is pottery making (Kumhar) at Lalamusa areas and what he did during recent tour of USA is well on the web with graphical images, character of Governor Punjab Salman Taseer and Sherry Rahman, activities of Farahnaz Ispahani, Raja Pervez Ashraf, Nayyer Bokhari, Fauzia Wahab and Farzana Raja are well available and under circulation on websites.
If General Kiyani and Zardari want to fight American war for the sake of dollars, we have no objection, go and fight, when Kiyani celebrated Year of Soldiers a few month back that cautioned us that poor army soldiers are going to be sacrificed for dollars. But for God sake don’t give us lectures on immorality of Pushtoon (Taliban). Not a single person in the history blamed them on the charges for which army and PPP have notoriety.
Allegations against Pakistan army:
According to Hamood Ur Rahman commission report under title:
The Nature of Allegations: Quote: “
a) Excessive use of force and fire power in Dacca during the night of the 25th and 26th of March 1971 when the military operation was launched.
b) Senseless and wanton arson and killings in the countryside during the course of the "sweeping operations" following the military action.
c) Killing of intellectuals and professionals like doctors, engineers, etc., and burying them in mass graves not only during early phases of the military action but also during the critical days of the war in December 1971.
d) Killing of Bengali Officers and men of the units of the East Bengal Regiment, East Pakistan Rifles and the East Pakistan Police Force in the process of disarming them, or on pretence of quelling their rebellion.
e)Killing of East Pakistani civilian officers, businessmen and industrialists, or their mysterious disappearance from their homes by or at the instance of Army Officers performing Martial Law duties.
f) Raping of a large number of East Pakistani women by the officers and men of the Pakistan army as a deliberate act of revenge, retaliation and torture. ” Unquote
Pakistan army is repeating its history at Swat, Malakand, FATA and Baluchistan areas, involved in same kind of human rights violations for which peoples of former East Pakistan are trying to sue them. Only difference is the time factor and availability of more sophisticated weapons of mass destruction. Otherwise financial backing of imperialists and regular supply of arms from those countries still has same magnitude. Now army has gunship helicopters, F-16 jets and missiles to kill poor citizens of remaining Pakistan.
Gen Kiyani & Gen Tikka Khan - Two butchers - same storey:
Following part of H R Commission is an eye opener for those peoples who are preaching war against Pushtoon peoples on the name of Taliban. Think patiently by reading following report that PPP is a name of sick mentality thugs, who uses army to safe guard their corruption and cleverly seek backing of army to close their eyes. We have no power and resources to tell all Pakistani citizens that everyone who belongs to this land is true citizen of this country. Constitution of Pakistan says that bring criminals to courts, let judges decide their fate, justify crimes of criminals. It is not obligation of Pakistan army to by hook by crook involve in political affairs and take into hands civil administration on gun point. Label a group as terrorist today and next day to other one.
Quote: “Gen. Niazi put the blame on his predecessor, then Gen. Tikka Khan, stated that "military action was based on use of force primarily, and at many places indiscriminate use of force was resorted to which alienated the public against the Army. Damage done during those early days of the military action could never be repaired, and earned for the military leaders names such as "Changez Khan" and "Butcher of East Pakistan." While the military action was on, the then Martial Law Administration alienated the world press by unceremoniously hounding out foreign correspondents from East Pakistan, thus losing out in the propaganda war to the Indians completely. "He went on to add: "on the assumption of command I was very much concerned with the discipline of troops, and on 15th of April, 1971, that is within four days of my command, I addressed a letter to all formations located in the area and insisted that loot, rape, arson, killing of people at random must stop and a high standard of discipline should be maintained. I had come to know that looted material had been sent to West Pakistan which included cars, refrigerators and air conditioners etc." When asked about the alleged killing of East Pakistani officers and men during the process of disarming, the General replied that he had heard something of the kind but all these things had happened in the initial stages of the military action before his time”.

Final Note: Remember that PPP is a curse for Pakistan; its power base is entirely in the hands of feudal of Sindh. Remember and write down if ever fall of Islamabad would happen, PPP would be responsible for that. We can pray to God that this may not happen ever and our generations may see prosperous Pakistan. But Pakistan need educated army generals with civilized training, which could make them soldiers of an independent sovereign state, free from burden of Imperialists. Mohsin e Pakistan, Dr. Abdul Qadeer Khan wrote an article last week, he wrote that Musharraf belongs to a cheap low priced family, and his father got officers cadre soon before his retirement, where as Bhutto sacked him from the government service….. Etc. Read the complete article published in Urdu press.
Such kind of MQM mentality generals have ruled over Pakistan, same is the status of other generals including Gen Ashfaq Pervez kiyani, Shuja Pasha, Gen Javed Iqbal, M Aslam, Tariq Majeed Butcher and other CIA and MI 6 prequalified officers, all of such creed belongs to cheap low cadre families. In the same manner if you may watch the list of PPP leaders, you would be surprised to notice family back ground of majority, belonging to either Hair dresser, Pottery Maker, Shoe Maker, Mirasi, Beggar, Dog breeder, Horse Breeder, Donkey porters, thug Peer, or self proclaimed descendent of saint families. Zardari himself and Yousuf Reza Gaillani were beggars a few decades back. It is their blood which compels them to bow their head in shameless fashion in front of imperialists for dollars. Muslims did not believe on caste system but what Zardari, Kiyani doing now, same Yahya Khan, Tikka Khan and Bhutto did with the nation. It is cheap blood of Zardari who looted pennies of the nation, his Surrey Palace, Swiss accounts, palaces around the globe, and hidden bank balances are telling with the loud voice that Mush, Kiyani, Altaf Hussain, Zardari and Gaillani have some cheap family back ground.
Current Genocide of Pushtoon Pakistani citizens is a war crime, has same level of criminality which happened with Bengali Pakistanis and Bloch Pakistani citizens. Media would likely pay heavy price for their unjustified propaganda against citizens of Pakistan, falls reporting and collecting lands and bribes from Government sources, a surprising blow will open their eyes when such cheap generals and politicians would strike.
Some historical references:
1963: Bhutto was Minister of Basic democracies in Ayub Khan Cabinet, Minister of fraudulent democracy, comparing ministers of Majlis e Shoora of Gen Zia era. Yousuf Raza Gaillani was Minister of that Majlis e Shoora. Bhutto use to call Ayub Khan as Daddy.
Sheikh Mujeeb ur Rahman’s address prior to declaring independence: “I know of no nobler battle than to fight for the rights of the exploited millions. We believe that this feeling of absolute equality, sense of inter-wing justice and impartiality is the very basis of Pakistani patriotism. Only he is fit to be a leader of Pakistan who is imbued with and consumed by such patriotism, a leader who zealously holds that anyone who deliberately or knowingly weakens any limb of Pakistan is an enemy of the country.”
Sheikh Mujeeb’s six points (March 23, 1966): Most irritating point was setting up of a militia or a para-military force for East Pakistan. He said “We ourselves had one such regiment, from before Independence. It was the Eastern Rifles. After Pakistan, it became East Pakistan Rifles. The present regime has taken this away from the hand of East Pakistan Government. How will the arms, ammunitions and wealth in West Pakistan help East Pakistan when transport between the wings can be snapped in a matter of seconds? Has not the recent 17-days war proved our utter helplessness? How can one brag that some event in Warsaw saved East Pakistan? It is the defence policy of our Government that has reduced us to this position. lnspite of all this we want a united Defence of the country and to retain it as a Central subject. But at the same time we want that East Pakistan be made self-sufficient in the matter of Defence; that an Ordnance Factory, a Military Academy and the Navy Headquarter must be set up in East Pakistan. These things were actually demanded in 1954. Nothing, however, has been done in the course of long twelve years. We do not yet know when these will be done.”
November 1970: Cyclone hit East Pakistan, thousands dead, hundred thousand became homeless. Unfortunately Pak Govt. and Pak army did same treatment with Bengali Pakistanis which those are doing with refugees of Swat, Malakand and FATA areas.
December 1970: Awami League won 167 of 169 seats of National Assembly out of Total 313 seats, whereas PPP got only 80 seats of National Assembly. Awami League secured 268 seats out of 279 Provincial Assembly seats as well. Bhutto put all type of hurdles in transfer of power to Awami League, did not let held the session of National Assembly. Floated idea of two Prime Ministers, same as idea of two chief justices Zardari has floated. Bhutto started licking US and on Feb 13 1971 Bhutto assured American ambassador he wanted to “turn over a new leaf’ in his relation with the US.
March 1971: Indira Gandhi re-elected, same Man Mohan Singh re-elected last month.
A Regime of thugs and bigots: An account by Murray Sayle
Some Muslims from their village had come up to see what was going on. The soldiers grabbed four of them and told them to recite something from the Holy Koran. They said the four Muslims were terrified but managed to begin "Bismillah Irrahman Irrahim…....." (The opening words of the Koran). They said the soldiers shouted "These are not Muslims! They have been taught to say this to trick us!" They then shot all four. THE SUNDAY TIMES, London -July 11, 1971.
Either current Pakistan is not a regime of thugs or bigots, having same role of generals, Zardari mafia and fascist mentality against Pushtoon and Baloch peoples. MQM who is beating drums of friendship with Zardari-Kiyani mafia was also victim of PPP-Army joint venture against them
In 1973 general elections were held in Bangla Desh, whereas under fear of defeat PPP did not let held elections and had been ruling up till 1977, seven years after 1970 elections.
