Condemns attack on Indian soldiers in Uri and Pakistan’s Irresponsible policies towards terrorists.
Taking a firm note on Pakistan’s role in several terrorist activities internationally, top US lawmakers now want Pakistan to be officially branded as a terrorist supporter.
Congressman Ted Poe of Texas, the Chairman of the House Subcommittee on Terrorism, and Congressman Dana Rohrabacher, California, introduced the Pakistan State Sponsor of Terrorism Designation Act, in the US Congress, on Tuesday. The bill, if passed, would label Pakistan a sponsor of terrorism.
“Not only is Pakistan an untrustworthy ally, Islamabad has also aided and abetted enemies of the United States for years. From harboring Osama bin Laden to its cozy relationship with the Haqqani network, there is more than enough evidence to determine whose side Pakistan is on in the War on Terror. And its not America’s,” Chairman Poe said in a statement.
The bill requires the US President to issue a report within 90 days of passage. And, to elaborate on the issue by addressing whether or not Islamabad has been a supporter of international terrorism. Thirty days following the report, a follow-up report will be issued by the Secretary of State to either brand Pakistan a state sponsor of international terrorism or justify as to why Pakistan does not meet the legal criteria for designation, the statement said.
The Congressman, however, did not directly attribute the recent terrorist attack in Uri to Pakistan.
In a statement issued earlier, Poe condemned the attack and said that Pakistan has been irresponsible in controlling terrorist movements. And that India has been a bearer of Islamabad’s irresponsibly policies on terrorism.
“This weekend’s attack on an Indian army base in the garrison town of Uri left 18 Indian soldiers dead and marked the deadliest assault in Indian-administered Kashmir in over two decades. It is a reminder to democracies the world over that terrorism seeks to destroy peace loving societies everywhere. It is still unclear which terrorist group carried out this cowardly attack, but one thing is certain.”
Congressman from Texas continued: “This is just the latest consequence of Pakistan’s longstanding irresponsible policy of supporting and providing operational space for all stripes of jihadi terrorist groups. Pakistan’s reckless behavior in this regard is a serious security risk to its neighbors – and India unfortunately pays the price all too often.”
Congressman Poe said that Americans condemn this terrorist attack on Indian soldiers and that Pakistan should stop harboring terrorists.
“A threat to democracy in India is a threat to democracy everywhere,” Poe added.
Several other US lawmakers have come out to support India against these cowardly attacks on unarmed Indian soldiers. Though the timing of the bill may not be very helpful for India considering that Congress does not have much time left, however, it helps to understand the prevalent feeling of the US lawmakers toward Pakistan and terrorism.
The lawmakers in the US are also contemplating to cut their financial aid to Islamabad so that it refrains to fund and nurture such unlawful activities around the world.
These statement come at a time when Pakistan’s Prime Minister Nawaz Sharif is due to speak before the UN General Assembly, today. Sharif is expected to talk on the issue of human rights violations in Kashmir, India.

YES ! PAKISTAN IS A TERRORIST STATE !
Because:
– Pakistan’s Sponsored Terrorists Killed more than 7000 innocent peoples of Pakistan, in “War-on-Terror”.
– Pakistan’s Sponsored Terrorists Killed more than 700 Law Enforcement Agencies Personnel of Pakistan, in “War-on-Terror”.
– Pakistan’s Sponsored Terrorists Killed more than 70 Legendary Personalities (like World Prominent Political Leader Ms. Benazir Bhutto) of Pakistan, in “War-on-Terror”.
– Pakistan’s Sponsored Terrorists Destroyed Complete Social & Economic Structure of Pakistan, in “War-on-Terror”.
The American (biased-Lawmaker / lobbyist) Congressman and Chairman of the House Subcommittee on Terrorism – Ted Poe & Dana Rohrabacher from California, introduced a Bill in the US Congress to declare Pakistan a state sponsor of terrorism.
The legislation called H.R (House of Representative) 6069 or the Pakistan State Sponsor of Terrorism Designation Act, urges the US government to formally deal with the issue within 4 months. While the US President will have to come up with a report clarifying whether Pakistan has aided international terrorism or not within 90 days, a month later the Secretary of State is expected to issue a follow-up report on either a determination that Pakistan is state sponsor of terrorism.
I have a lot to say Lobbyists of “Part-of-Problems” which are behind the curtain as “Actual-Terrorism-Sponsors” investing in export of terrorism especially in our region of Pakistan and as a result Pakistan have sacrificed a Lot (innocent & important lives, and billions of Dollars economic losses, above all deterioration within our social structure as well).
Mr. Ted Poe & Dana Rohrabacher, you are MASTERS of LAW, would you present arguments on aforementioned scarifications Pakistan difficultly trying to sustain with courage and emerging as a Great – “Strong & Brave” Nation of the World.
Mr Ted Poe these Thousands of Pakistani Citizens Killing by terrorists are the acts of those who hired you and now standing behind you with their guns on your shoulders to be fired on us.
But, _______________
You along with your sponsors will never ever succeed !
However, the Part-of-Solutions will enlist you in on-going Registration of “Part-of-Problems”.
Justice prevailed ! Not your type of Lawmakers you play with Justice & Laws !
Bye ! Bye ! from Legislative Institution forever Mr. Ted Poe & Dana Rohrabacher.
American Congress is not in need of you
Thank you !
