How long will Pakistan bully the entire world by denying its clandestine hobnobbing with various terror outfits on its own land? Now it's an established fact that the world's most wanted terrorist Osama Bin Laden was killed by US forces in a region very close to Pakistan's military academy in Abbottabad. And the most astonishing fact is that the huge mansion in which Obama was living along with his wife and sons is just at a stone's throw from the army cantonment area and no one in Pakistan's army and ISI could able to know about this. If Pakistan is still in denial mode, it seems, the nation is inviting a serious assault from the US in the coming times, and that's not far off from now when the US will press Pakistan in international forum to justify their denial in all previous high level meetings, when Pakistan's top leadership including civilian and military had deliberately provided false information on Osam's where-about. There is no doubt that Pakistan is a sanctuary of terrorists and that has been exposed by the US. Isn't it extremely embarrassing for Pakistan now?
Why does Pakistan play this double standard? Can Pakistan prove it now that its Army had no role in protecting the most wanted terrorist of the world by providing shelter within the cantonment area? Can Pakistan deny the fact that a terrorist could able to build a huge mansion in its army area without getting permission from the local authority? If Pakistan doesn't have answers to these questions, then it reflects the dangerous state of affairs that it has been embroiled in.
It's not only Osama Bin Laden who has had the state privilege to manage his vicious terror plots from the safe haven of Pakistan, but there are hundreds of deadly terrorists who have plotted ghastly attacks in London, Madrid, and Mumbai and killed thousands of innocent citizens are still harbored in this terror land.
Now the time has come for Pakistan to cooperate with other nations to either provide information about the terrorists those are being protected by ISI or Army, or face the dangerous consequences of not being cooperative. No nation wants to transgress the sovereignty of Pakistan and manhunt the terrorists the way US managed to do, but at the same time if Pakistan constantly ignores the requests of other nations or doesn't cooperate other in ensuring a world free of terrorism, it won't be surprising that one day all other nations would launch a collective military assault to get the results.
