Former Chairman of Pakistan Steels Mills and Pakistan Ordinance Factories Wah, Lieutenant General (retd) Abdul Qayyum has said that capturing of US spy aircraft by Iran is the biggest example of American intelligence failure.
Qayyum said that US must not disturb the regional peace by taking provocative actions against Iran. “Iran is a major country of the world and its sovereignty must be respected,” he told IRNA in an interview.
The Islamic Revolution Guards Corpse has captured a US drone in the Persian Gulf zone on December 4.
The drone which was a ScanEagle had been spotted few days ago while doing spying operations to collect information in the general zone of the Persian Gulf.
The ScanEagle drone can fly pre-programmed or operator-run missions guided by navigation satellites and its onboard flight control system.
Analyst Abdul Qayyum expressing his views said that West should settle all issues with Iran peacefully. He pointed out that the Zionist regime has refused to allow inspection of its nuclear installations but Iran is not permitted to develop peaceful nuclear program. “The selective application of laws could disturb the world peace,” former general viewed.
“US must not violate Iranian airspace,” he said knowing the repercussion of such acts. Expressing his views the Pakistani defence analyst said that that capturing of US drone shows Iran’s defense capability.
The US drones are developed with state of the art technology and when Iran captures these drones it proves that Iran has the capacity to compete in electronic war. “It is a great achievement of Iran,” he said.
Abdul Qayyum was of the view that US must not underestimate Iran. “Iran has no offensive designs but their right to safeguard independence cannot be denied,” he added.
He said that Arab countries must come out of an American influence and follow independent foreign policies. He said that Arab states should keep their relations with West gracefully rather becoming their colonies.
Iran captures it because their Generals are not sell outs. Why cant the nuclear armed Pakistan do the same. Because their generals need $$$$ to buy DHA plots.
not only that their Gen npt corrupt, but their President & politicians too not corrupt….hence, they talk to the Americans & the West " eye to eye "…..& the rest of the world want to put Iran in the box as it threatens them with pulling the price of oil down from the present level by keeping up with un-hindered supply of oil to the rest of the countries of the world…..especially the rest of the West….if sanctions on Iran is lifted, the price of oil will come down from $ 80 below to $ 50 & that will reduce income of oil for all especially the ME countries who are fighting to reduce their inflation & their local social sector, inorder to keep away from Arab Spring….
Dear Ali, Such policies are made at government level and generals do not react or any force do not react independently. But it unfortunate that at government level neither President nor PM has the capacity to do so rather our government has ruled without any vision what they have in there speeches is just 8th amendment and BISP which is funded by diverting all the development funds to this scheme. They have not done anything for energy crisis and water related issues. Lets hope that sanity may prevail in next elections.
