On May 28th, Pakistan erupted in celebration for Youm-e-Takbeer, marking the day it joined the nuclear club back in ’98. But let’s cut through the noise: as we revel in our nuclear might, the Palestinians are getting hammered by Israeli airstrikes. Innocents are dying, and what’s the world doing? Pretty much nothing.
Here’s the kicker: Pakistan’s got nukes but can’t seem to make a dent in defending the Palestinians. We’ve got one of the world’s top arsenals, yet all we do is spit out condemnations and empty threats that don’t do squat for Gaza’s agony. Israel, no bigger than Karachi, is throwing its weight around in global politics, and some are screaming genocide.
Palestine is in ruins. Bomb after bomb, homes and hospitals are being wiped out. And the international big shots? They’re just sitting there, tossing out useless “concerns” and “calls for peace.” Israel’s “self-defense” line doesn’t add up when you look at the carnage they’re causing. It reeks of ethnic cleansing, and the world knows it.
The world’s a mess. Human rights violations, wars, you name it. The big fish in the global pond are eating the little guys alive. The Palestinians are living this nightmare, crushed under the boot of geopolitical games that trample on human rights.
So, Pakistan pats itself on the back for its nukes, but let’s get real: what good is that power if we can’t stand up for the oppressed? Youm-e-Takbeer should be about more than just flexing our nuclear muscles. It’s about the duty to fight injustice everywhere. Having nukes isn’t the endgame; it’s about using our clout to push for justice and humanity.
We need leaders who do more than talk. The world’s silence on Palestine is a disgrace. Pakistan, and everyone else for that matter, needs to step up. It’s time to take a stand against tyranny and work towards a world where power comes with a conscience.
