American bullying

US Secretary of State Hillary Clinton warned Pakistan that Iran-Pakistan gas pipeline project if implemented Pakistan would face American economic sanctions.

Uncle Sam should know that its policy of bullying the nations by economic sanctions create hatred against America. The people consider America is their enemy due to the hardships they face. America wants to keep its hegemony over the world and control the natural resources of the world, which is creating bad feeling about the sole superpower. Although the majority of Americans are compassionate and want peace, prosperity, freedom and liberty for others.

Pakistan who helped America become the sole superpower by defeating Soviet Union has been paying a very high price, by fighting against mujahideen, who were created by the USA to fight against Soviet Union in Afghanistan. The American policy of dictating and determining what is good for Pakistan, has encouraged extremisms in Pakistan.

Due to Uncle Sam’s arrogant mindset, the US is not prepared to learn any lesson from history, that the use of lethal force against other countries and killing innocent people cannot create goodwill for America. Why does the US not want Pakistan to solve its energy crisis by having natural gas from its neighbour country Iran?

Why it suggests that Pakistan should have gas from Turkmenstan, which will pass through Afghanistan and Pakistan will have to pay Afghanistan for using its land, which Pakistan can have from India if the original project concept of Iran-Pakistan-India gas pipeline is implemented.

Iran is a permanent neighbour of Pakistan and both countries’ people share common heritage and their history is thousands of years old. Can Uncle Sam change its neighbour country Canada? Pakistan should learn from America to give priority to its national interest which is the well-being of every Pakistani. Therefore, it should not accept America’s bullying.

  1. Pakistan should not get deterred by American threats. Iran pipeline is in Pakistan's national interest and we should go ahead with the pipeline project. America is the most unreliable partner and even if Pakistan submits to their demand, US will find some other excuse to clamp sanctions. US has an unending list of demands to serve its own selfish interests at the cost national interests of other nations.
