This is with reference to a recent poll according to which 59 percent of Pakistani people consider America their enemy.
India is enemy to 18 percent and only 11 percent consider Taleban as the enemy. This is really surprising because what Taleban has done to destroy Pakistan is something none of the mighty powers have been able to do.
Taleban have killed 35,000 Pakistanis and this is more than the combined causalities inflicted by all enemies of Pakistan. India could only kill 19,000 Pakistanis in four wars. Taleban penetrated our armed forces area and destroyed war assets worth billions of rupees.
Even India could not inflict such damage on us and still Pakistani nation considers Taleban as the least threat. This is insane.
Taleban defamed Pakistan all over the world and are able to tag it as safe haven for terrorists. Again this is something India with its powerful propaganda machinery and media could not achieve.
Taleban are eating us from inside and we are still looking outside for enemies. The enemy is right in our house. As long as we dont know or recognize who our real enemy is, we will keep suffering like this. The government, media and other agencies should play an active role in making the masses aware of these facts.
