Lieutenant General Hameed Gul (Retd) has claimed in a TV interview on a private channel that the US is an imperialist power and now has designs against Pakistan nuclear capability and also seeks to sour Pakistan-China relations.
He said Pakistan has to guard against this. He maintained that the return of the Chief Justice Iftikhar Muhammad Chaudhry to his office was a goose thing. He also said that the Supreme Court could only work within its parameters and the lawyers community had ensured that in their campaign for the restoration of the Chief Justice, no political aims or agendas were involved. He strongly rejected the version that attack on the venue of the lawyers meeting in Islamabad, was a suicide attack but it was carried out with a planted device through remote control.
Lieutenant General Hameed Gul said that Pakistan as a nation has all the abilities to provide the alternate system of government and working for common good. He added that the Islamic system of governance provide alternative to the Western way of living and the US. Therefore, the West and US sought to weaken Pakistan.and a case to study in this connection was US Secretary of State Condoles Rice's statement in the US Congress while she was securing her capability, that the US had a plan for containing the Pakistan nuclear capability but would not like to mention it at that time.
