Naib Amir of Jamaat-e-Islami Pakistan Senator Professor Khurshid Ahmad has condemned in strongest terms two drone attacks on Pakistani soil by the US killing a number of innocent people, and said that after a silence of six weeks the US has once again started its aggressive violation of Pakistan's sovereignty and territorial integrity.
"The Parliament", he added, "has again and again demanded the government to take effective steps to protect Pakistan's air space and the people of Pakistan." "The Chiefs of Staff of the Armed Forces had issued clear instructions on the subject after the abominable attack on Salala check post on November 26, 2011. Hence, the nation asks the political and military leadership what steps they are going to take to resist the shameful attacks on Pakistan," he stressed.
"It seems that in view of the recommendations of the Parliamentary Committee on National Security and the Joint Session of the Parliament the Pak-US relationships are to be totally revamped," he emphasised.
According to Professor Khurshid the US leadership has taken a deliberate step to intimidate Pakistan. "This is a time to protect our sovereignty and honour and use all our military and political resources to resist violation of our sovereignty", he concluded.-PR
