  1. International communities know how much Pakistan contributed towards the peace in the world. From 9/11, London blast, 26/11-Mumbai attack, Pathankot attack and many more attack in the world has some sort of Pakistan-connection. Some has direct state actor involved while in other case indirect state actor or planned on Pakistan soil. Pakistan claims that it suffer most due to terrorism, but don't forget this are self-infliction, terror organisations are self created and still nurtured by ISI or retired ISI. Current govt, is just keeping blind eyes and trying to disowned, but world knows the duplicity.

    • its easy to say things wdout facts. but for ur info the terrrorism was brought to borders of pak after the attack of russia on afghanistan then american proxy war leaving no choice for the pakis. to ur info kashir is also in india which is troblesome and the barbarian acts of indian army over innocent kashmiries are not hidden from any one. the ill planned attacks by raw at pathankot was seen by every sensible person. so dnt blame oithers for ur faullies. terorism grew insside pak due to american involvement in afghanistan and pak siding with america against terrorists. india is the country with many freedom movement going inside its terrority by locals so attacks are inside job dnt blame pakis. your raw is destablizing pakistan fresh evidence is kalboshan yadev
