American influence over nuclear assets is being accepted in the name of safety

Revelations made by New Yorker magazine that the American and Pakistani Governments are negotiating enhanced safety measures over Pakistan's nuclear assets has strengthen the apprehensions that the present democratic government has gone number of miles ahead as compare to the dictatorship of Pervaiz Musharraf in order to expand the American hegemony over Pakistan. Refutation announced by Pakistan's foreign office and American embassy are not credible because in the past both the government of Pakistan and American embassy in Pakistan denied the allegations of the presence of private American security companies on Pakistani soil, even after the credible reporting of their presence.

Also the presence of American camp at Sehalla Police training center since 2003, which is only eight kilometers from Kahota research laboratories and the statement made by Dr. Abdul Qadeer Khan that Pervaiz Musharraf ordered him to make a list of Pakistan's nuclear assets and later Pervaiz Musharraf handed over that list to Americans, has further dented these refutations. Deteriorating law and order situation, bomb blasts, on going military operations in two provinces, attack on GHQ and specially attacks on high-ranking military officials in the capital, this scenario will be used as an excuse to further enhance American influence over Pakistan's nuclear assets and policy. The day Pakistan joined American war on terror, Pakistan's economic, political and internal and external security matters have gradually deteriorated.

Pakistan's nuclear assets are not insecure because of the presence of Taliban rather it is threatened by the presence of American forces and security agencies, because they are allowed to move any where in Pakistan including Islamabad. Government himself admits that after the military operation in Sawat and South Waziristan Taliban are on the run. The fact of the matter is that the people of Pakistan and the sincere elements in the military should join hands with Hizb ut Tahrir in order to get rid of these present agent rulers and establish Khilafah. With the help of All Mighty Allah, Khilafah will expel America from the region and use these nuclear assets to protect the Ummah.
