In his speech to the joint session of the U.S. Congress, Trump shocked democracy loving Pakistanis by coming out in support of Islamabad on the C.I.A.’s instructions.

In his first address to the joint session of the U.S. congress, President Donald J. Trump surprised democracy lovers and those who stand for the rights of smaller nationalities by praising the military-installed government in Pakistan.

Trump, well-known for his histrionic hyperbole, tried to convey an impression that he was a tough man who will bring justice to those who harm Americans. But behind all this huff and puff there is nothing new: The C.I.A. has once again decided that the new administration will continue with its age-old policy of military first in Pakistan.

In his speech, Trump said, “Tonight, I am pleased to announce that we have just apprehended the top terrorist responsible for that atrocity. And he is right now on his way here to face the swift sword of American justice.

“And I want to thank, especially, the government of Pakistan for helping arrest this monster.”

Trump did so in the backdrop of meeting between C.I.A. chief John Ratcliff and I.S.I. chief Lt. Gen Asim Malik on the sidelines of the Munich Security Conference in February where a deal was ostensibly made that Pakistan will extradite Abbey Gate bomber bomber ISIS-K operative, Mohammad Sharifullah “Jafar.”

Trump praise for the Pakistan government, which in reality means Pakistan army chief Gen Asim Munir, was a big blow for the democracy-loving activists of the Pakistan Tehrik Insaf, who are called by their nickname Imrandoos.

In fact some separatists from the area-wise Balochistan province where Pakistan military and I.S.I. crimes against humanity has led to an undying secessionist movement for more than 18 years were also very enthusiastically supporting Trump.

Nabi Bakhsh Baloch, an activist of the Baloch National Movement which is widely believed to be the front office of the militant Baloch Liberation Army led by Dr Allah Nazar Baloch, was posting tweets in favor of Trump and the main ideologue of his present administration Elon Musk.

However, the C.I.A. that has always worked with dictators around the world has succeeded in tampering Trump’s newest approach towards the Pakistan’s military and its political arm, the I.S.I.

The C.I.A. is believed to have played a key role in the military coup detat on the night of the U.S. Independence Day in July 1977. That was when monkey general Ziaul Haq overthrew Bhutto’s populist government. Bhutto was subsequently hanged April 4, 1979 with C.I.A.’s blessings, sending Pakistan and the region into chaos from which it has not yet recovered. Last year, after 44 years, Pakistan’s highest Supreme Court ruled that the death sentence of Bhutto by the court was woefully wrong.

Just like with Bhutto who wanted Pakistan to be free of U.S. interference, former premier Imran Khan was removed from office as he was not willing to toe the C.I.A. line on war in Ukraine. By misfortune, Khan was in Moscow when Vladimir Putin launched an attack on Ukraine.

Then army chief Gen Qamar Javed Bajwa defied prime minister Khan and came out in support of the C.I.A. proxy war in Ukraine. Just a week later, later Imran Khan government was removed by a vote of no confidence with C.I.A. blessings and the support of Pakistan’s renter army and I.S.I.

Also seen in the picture is U.S. Ambassador to Pakistan, Donald Armin Blome, who flew together with the generals to the U.S. despite the Leahy Law that prohibits such mingling with human rights violators.

U.S. ambassador to Pakistan Donald Blome flew in with Pakistan military’s Islamist chief Gen Asim Munir and then I.S.I. chief Lt. Gen Nadeem Anjum to Washington DC December 15, 2023 and the Biden administration gave a nod to massive rigging of elections that followed in February 2024. Khan’s party was disallowed from using its election symbol, a cricket bat— Khan gained international fame as Pakistan’s skipper. The USAID, now disbanded, worked as a front office of the C.I.A. and pumped in $15 to help with the fraudulent elections.

With the support of the C.I.A., the I.S.I. brokered a deal between arch rivals Pakistan People’s Party of Asif Ali Zardari and Pakistan Muslim League of thrice premier Mian Nawaz Sharif. Intriguingly, even Sharif was not acceptable to the G.H.Q. and I.S.I. and instead his younger “yes man” brother Shehbaz Sharif, with no mass following, was made the country’s premier. The allegedly most corrupt Asif Ali Zardari for a second term became the country’s president. Zardari is friends with infamous land grabbers such as Malik Riaz and Ali Hassan Brohi, while a former ambassador to the U.S. Husain Haqqani, who was supportive of Gen Bajwa and continuously tweets against jailed Imran Khan, handles is business matters, according to a senior Pakistan journalist.

Meanwhile, the struggle for right to self determination in Balochistan received a jolt with Trump’s praise for the military-installed government. More than 5,500 freedom loving Baloch activists are still victims of enforced disappearances and their women family members have been protesting for years now.

According to former C.I.A. whistleblower John Kiriakou, the U.S. embassies all over the world has a human rights officer who pressurize the country’s intelligence services such as the I.S.I. in Pakistan to uphold human rights or face sanctions. However, he says the C.I.A. then steps in to assure the I.S.I. not to worry as they are going to take care of it.

According to former U.S. Ambassador to Syria, Robert S. Ford, who now works for the Middle East Institute, an American ambassador has the power veto the C.I.A. when it becomes complicit with a spy service that violates the Leahy Law — under this law, the U.S. is disallowed from engaging in spy services like the I.S.I. and M.I. who commit gross human rights violations. However, Blome was hands in gloves with the Pakistan military service.

Trumps praise for Pakistan, under advise of John Ratcliff, means there is little hope the military will free jailed premier Imran Khan or end its policy of enforced disappearances in Balochistan.

In fact, the I.S.I. and other spy services in Pakistan seemed to have been emboldened in carrying out wholesale enforced disappearances after the 911 terrorist attacks when the C.I.A. and F.B.I. extrajudicially disappeared and extradited alleged wanted terrorists from Pakistan.

American scholar Daniel Markey in his book No Exit from Pakistan, explained why the U.S. will remain engaged with Pakistan state despite and the military G.H.Q. in Rawalpindi and the Aabpara headquarters of the Pakistan C.I.A. Inter-Services Intelligence playing double games with the U.S.

Markey brilliantly exposed the flawed U.S. policy regarding Pakistan.

Senior journalist Amir Mir said the most striking feature of Markey’s book “remains the realisation that a military-first approach towards Pakistan suffers from the crucial fact that the army has never run the country very effectively.”
