Gen Raheel’s heading military alliance to create anarchy: Moosavi

ISLAMABAD: The Patron-in-Chief of Supreme Shia Ulema Board and chief of Tehreek Nifaz-e-Fiqh Jafriya Agha Syed Hamid Ali Shah Moosavi has said Pakistan should not become part of a conspiracy to divide the Muslims.

He said the appointment of Gen (retd) Raheel Sharif as head of 39-state military alliance would further create anarchy in the Muslim world.  Had the former army chief headed the army alliance of the OIC, it would have been a source of our pride. An armed alliance of the OIC should be developed to wipe out terrorists from the whole Muslim world.

Instead of jumping into the fire ignited in the Middle East to safeguard the Israeli interests, the Muslim world should be saved. The protection of Harmain Sharifain’s dignity is not binding only on Pakistan Army but on every Muslim and Pakistani.

The TNFJ leader was addressing the elite of the Mukhtar Force volunteers. Syed Mazhar Ali Shah Advocate, Senior Vice-President of TNFJ, was also present on the occasion. Agha Moosavi said the government should tell whether Pakistan is part of the military alliance that is going to be headed by the former Army Chief. If it is so then it would be tantamount to fooling the people and an insult to the decision of parliament that had rejected inclusion of Pakistan in this alliance.

He said inclusion in this 39-state alliance is tantamount to inviting the enmity of remaining 20 Muslim states that are out of this alliance. The TNFJ asked the government to remove the ambiguity and tell under which law the former army chief has been allowed to serve the military alliance. The Quaid-i-Millat Jafriya Agha Moosavi said the massacre of Muslims in the Middle East and the game of discrimination is being played to promote the Israeli supremacy.
