Eversince the power of Imran Khan and PTI came to an end in April 2022 following a democratic vote of no confidence motion moved by the opposition parties in Pakistan’s parliament, forces inimical to Pakistan, notably Zionists, India’s RAW, and the West have been fully mobilized to destabilize Pakistan and its government.
This year alone, in the last 8 months, a flurry of 129 sympathetic articles have been written in the international press in favor of the now incarcerated founder of PTI, Imran Khan. The latest amongst these propaganda articles, have been the article published in the New York Times on August 1, 2024, titled: “As Misery Multiplies, Pakistanis Rise Up Against the Ruling Elite.”
When one peruses these articles, a clear attempt for discrediting Pakistan and its government, military in particular, can be noticed as has been the narrative of Imran Khan following his ouster from the post of Premiership. This common narrative being peddled by both Imran Khan, his party and the international media against the state of Pakistan is not mere coincidence but the manifestation of a unified anti-Pakistan agenda well coordinated, laid out and executed under ‘Operation Goldsmith’.
Noting the impact of Operation Goldsmith on Pakistan, it is crucial to understand what this campaign is all about ?
Operation Goldsmith is a fake propaganda and a psychological warfare being orchestrated by the enemies of Pakistan considerably, RAW, Zionists and the US-led West to create unrest in Pakistan by turning the nation against its state, particularly the Pakistan Army, which is the cornerstone of Pakistan’s solidarity and wellbeing.
Clearly, Imran khan being a close associate of the Goldsmith clan, is an integral and vital player of the Goldsmith project.
Imran Khan’s party has been engaged in a series of actions — prejudicial to the country’s interests and integrity —spreading over almost a decade starting in August 2014 when they brought their first sit-in to topple the government of PML-N in Islamabad.
This party has attacked the parliament, the PM House, the PTV, the Supreme Court, dissolved the National Assembly unconstitutionally, attacked police officers, police stations, army officers, destroyed military installations, set ablaze Radio Pakistan, tried its best to stir rebellion within the armed forces of a nuclear state, tried to stir up a mutiny against the army chief, launched the vilest, most sleazy, dirtiest and most venomous campaign campaign against the armed forces including the martyrs.
In the incumbent year, ever since its failure to make it the center post-Feb 2024 General Elections, PTI leadership, under the instructions of its founder, has conspired against Pakistan by approaching the European Union (EU) and the International Monetary Fund (IMF) to revoke Pakistan’s GSP Plus status and cancel the release of the second tranche of its bailout package for Pakistan, respectively.
It also lobbied for the passing of an anti-Pakistan resolution in the US House of Representatives, seeking a probe into the military’s interference into Pakistan’s elections, which by contrast were held transparently under the watch of both national and international media.
Furthermore, PTI’s opposition to the vision of Azm-e-Istehkam, strategy pertaining to both the Afghan Taliban as well as the Tehreek-e-Taliban Pakistan and its sympathetic approach towards Sheikh Mujeeb ur Rehman, raises concerns about its allegiance to the state and suggests anti-state leanings.
Lately, the party’s decision to hold a rally in Islamabad on August 22, now rescheduled for September 8, has also been an extension of Operation Goldsmith. According to sources, crores of rupees meant for the welfare and development of Khyber-Pakhtunkhwa and its residents were misappropriated from the provincial government’s treasury. These funds were intended to be used to arm and transport party workers, Afghan illegal migrants and other criminal gangs and extremists to the venue of the power show with the aim to provoke violence, render casualties and then hold the government responsible for its self-orchestrated chaos through digital means, to further fuel more anti-state uprisings, unrest and instability in the country.
It bears mentioning that the Goldsmith network which is increasingly censoring the government of Pakistan for fulfilling its constitutional mandate by taking legal action against the fascist elements of PTI —for inducing despondency in Pakistan, sowing discord among institutions, particularly the armed forces, and spreading lies and propaganda at the behest of foreign collaborators — and for installing a firewall to regulate the Internet by clamping down on politically motivated digital terrorism, which by the way has long been employed in countries like China, Iran, Turkey, Russia, India, and US etc, has kept mum about the gross atrocities being committed against Muslims in Gaza and Kashmir.
This is because morality for these flag bearers of humanity and consequent outrage are always selective and confined to razor sharp national interest. This duplicity has markedly been underscored by Pakistan’s DG ISPR, Lieutenant General Ahmed Sharif Chaudhry, in his August 5 presser as well.
The enemies however should be informed that Pakistan is not Libya, Bangladesh, or Syria which can be destabilized so easily through foreign intervention aided by local facilitators. On the contrary, its institutions, particularly the Pakistan Army, with the unwavering support of its people, are well equipped and prepared to defend the country’s sovereignty and integrity against internal and external forces, thwarting in turn sinister plans like Operation Goldsmith.
