Islamabad Mosque Bombing: A Manufactured Crisis to Evade Gaza Entanglements?

  • A suicide bombing at Khadija Tul Kubra Mosque in Islamabad killed 31 and injured 169, sparking theories of military orchestration.
  • The theory suggests General Asim Munir engineered the attack as a "false flag" to blame Afghanistan/India, justifying border skirmishes.
  • This alleged manipulation would provide an excuse for Pakistan to avoid deeper involvement in the Gaza conflict, despite international pressure.
  • Critics point to Pakistan's history of military-orchestrated crises to deflect blame, secure aid, and maintain internal dominance.
  • The Pakistani military is likened to a modern East India Company, controlling a vast economic empire and manipulating events for self-preservation.
