Are we forgetting something or are we just lazy. In either case, it is unforgivable. As Pakistani citizens, it is our duty to protect our country at all times. Unity, faith and discipline these are not only words but these are codes of conduct.
To live up to the code we need to understand the ideas and principles behind these words. All Pakistani citizens in the armed forces or otherwise have the duty at all times and under all circumstances to oppose enemies of Pakistan and support its national interests. In training or in combat, alone or with others, while evading capture or enduring captivity, this duty belongs to each Pakistani regardless of circumstances. “Defend our nation”.
We as Pakistanis need to understand our enemy is not only at our borders but deeply embedded among us. We are fighting a different kind of war. Our enemy is scattered all over and I don’t think the army alone can win this war.
We all need to involve ourselves and need to keep our eyes and ears open for any suspicious activity. If we want to save Pakistan we need to be involved in security at all levels.
The threat we are facing today, don’t be surprised if you hear about “NGO for security” working in each neighbourhood managed by local people. Let’s pray our hearts and souls find peace and comfort.
