Protest rallies were held in different cities of the country on the appeal of Jamaat-e-Islami (JI) Chief, Syed Munawar Hasan against Nato gunship attack on Pakistan's military post. The protest rallies were held in Lahore, Karachi, Islamabad, Rawalpindi and many other major cities after the Juma prayers in which the JI leaders condemned the Nato attacks and demanded a formal apology from Washington.
Syed Munawar Hasan, while addressing the Friday congregation at Mansoora said that the rulers were coward but if any of them stood against the US, the JI and other religious and Jehadi organisations would face the US aggression and the US cronies and those carrying its agenda would be fully resisted.
He said the Nato attack on the military post clearly implied that the so-called war on terror was not Pakistan's war, it was America's war. He said that after defeat in Afghanistan, the US and Nato forces had attacked their frontline ally and wanted to remove the blot of defeat through these attacks in Pakistani territory. He appreciated the stoppage of Nato supplies and said this should be a permanent step.
Stressing that the enemies could never be made friends, he said, "it is a pity that we are allowing Nato to carry out attacks on our land". The arms and ammunition passing into Afghanistan on our roads were now being used against this nation. He said the elements supporting drone attacks should give an explanation for the attacks on our military post and the martyrdom of three soldiers.
