To all Pakistanis residing within #Pakistan,
And to all those living abroad.
in any part of the world,
Assalamualaikum / Greetings!
Respected Ladies and Gentlemen,
Fellow Pakistanis,
As you are aware, Field Marshal General Asim Munir recently spent six days in the United States. Why he stayed for six days, how he stayed, and whom he met—no one knows. On the final day, we were informed that he would be meeting U.S. President
over lunch.
After waiting six days, he finally had the opportunity to meet President Trump—something he greatly desired. What transpired behind those closed doors remains unknown. However, I wish to address the people of Pakistan through this brief video log.
During the Afghan war—between two global superpowers, the U.S. and USSR—Pakistan’s military generals dragged the country into the conflict. The result?
- The rise of the Kalashnikov culture,
- A crippled economy surviving on handouts,
- And irreparable damage to Pakistan’s internal stability.
But who paid the price? Not the elite, not the ruling class, not the generals—only the ordinary people of Pakistan suffered.
Now, I say this very clearly—regardless of whether any TV anchor dares to say it or not:
The world is moving toward another global war.
Conflict between Iran and Israel is escalating.
In such a scenario, the meeting between President Trump and General Asim Munir is deeply suspicious and beyond understanding. If, during that meeting, Pakistan’s military leadership even slightly indicated support for Israel or the U.S., or if they decided to once again drag Pakistan into a foreign war for the sake of a few dollars, then the people of Pakistan must not tolerate it.
If Pakistan’s general and it's leadership support any superpower—directly or indirectly—against Iran, a neighboring country, then the people must shed the veil of restraint and take to the streets to defend their country.
And if they can not do that, then they should stop pretending on TV and social media about how much they "love Pakistan." Because that would be a lie and hypocrisy—plain and simple.
The people of Pakistan must rise and protest openly and make it loud and clear:
“Pakistan must not be dragged into a global war!
Must not be dragged in!
Must not be dragged in!”
This is the only way to secure the future of Pakistan and its people.
I earnestly appeal to the people:
You must remind the generals that they are not the owners of Pakistan, nor are they gods. The real owners of the country are its people.
Generals are public servants—not masters.
Therefore, the people must now rise and ensure that no general is allowed to gamble away the fate of this nation.
This is a heartfelt appeal from me to every Pakistani—
To every mother, sister, daughter, elder, and youth—
To every true patriot of Pakistan:
Please wake up and take a stand.
Thank you.
Khuda Hafiz.
Altaf Hussain
