'JI will mobilise nation against US attack'
Jamaat-e-Islami Ameer Qazi Hussain Ahmad has warned the United States (US) against attacking Pakistan saying that if Washington committed "the folly of invading Pakistan", every Pakistani will fight them.
Talking to reporters after the meeting of JI Executive Council (Majlis-e-Amla) at Mansoorah on Thursday, Qazi said that the government was "playing into the hands of conspirators", threatening national security.
"The entire nation is being deliberately pushed into frustration," he said, adding that prices of petrol, electricity, gas and edibles had been increased deliberately. Qazi claimed that the US-led NATO forces were positioned against Pakistan on the Afghan border, and were building underground bunkers. He also warned that Pakistan was being used to fight "a war against Islam and Muslims". He said that the JI would mobilise Pakistanis against the American designs, and would welcome all the forces joining that cause. He said that leaderships of Iran and China would also be consulted in this regard.
