As the world races towards innovation, equity, and prosperity in 2025, one country continues to defy all norms of civilisation — Pakistan, a state where terror is theology, militancy is politics, and minority extermination is policy.
This is not an outlier event. This is not a fringe group gone rogue. This is systemic rot, militarily protected and ideologically nourished by Pakistan’s clergy-politician-army complex.
And even worse? Some foreign media outlets still carry water for this failed experiment — whitewashing its crimes, publishing op-eds based on ISI handouts, and peddling “victimhood” narratives while minorities are lynched, graves desecrated, and children radicalised inside Pakistan.
On May 18, 2025, Abdullah Abid, a minor Baloch boy from Gwadar, was abducted by Pakistani forces and taken to an undisclosed location. No warrant. No court. No rights.
This is routine in Balochistan. Thousands of boys like Abdullah have vanished over the years — picked up by the military, never to return. The only proof of their existence are photos in grieving mothers’ hands and protests met with batons.
This isn’t national security. It is state-sanctioned ethnic cleansing.
From grave desecrations in Khushab, to public threats in Faisalabad, the persecution of Ahmadis has reached inhuman levels:
This isn’t just hate. It’s structured genocide. And yet, global human rights groups stay curiously muted.
In Sheikhupura, a 22-year-old Christian worker was nearly murdered by his Muslim employers — for allegedly touching the Quran.
They used the word “Chura,” a term rooted in casteist-Islamist bigotry, to declare him impure. His throat was sliced, and he was left to bleed for daring to touch a book.
This is the level of toxic, theological apartheid being practiced in broad daylight — with zero accountability.
In Sialkot’s Angels School of System, schoolchildren were made to chant “Sar Tan Se Juda” — a slogan glorifying religious beheadings — as part of a ritual performance.
This isn’t a madrasa. It’s a Cambridge-affiliated private school.
When a nation starts raising its kids on chants of murder, it has forfeited its right to call itself civilised.
JUI-F leader Fazlur Rehman recently threatened nationwide protests if the Child Marriage Bill is not withdrawn, calling it un-Islamic.
This from a man whose madrasas are repeatedly accused of sexual abuse of minors, especially Hindu children.
What does the Pakistani state do about this? Nothing. Because in Pakistan, religious perverts are lawmakers, and rapists in robes are guardians of morality.
After the cold-blooded killing of an Ahmadi doctor in Sargodha, TLP leaders didn’t hide — they celebrated.
On public stages, they declared it righteous, called for more murders, and warned dissenters of divine wrath. The event was live-streamed and cheered by crowds.
If this isn’t terror glorification, what is?
Despite this avalanche of evidence — from forced disappearances to public beheading chants, to grave desecrations and rape rings — some foreign media outlets continue to parrot Pakistani propaganda.
This isn’t journalism. This is collusion with a genocidal regime.
While Pakistan is regressing into the stone age, India is emerging as a superpower:
India is building. Pakistan is burning.
India is educating its youth. Pakistan is weaponizing them.
India is debating development. Pakistan is debating how early to marry a child and how best to slit a throat.
This is not a country in crisis. This is a country by design, built on the twin pillars of religious extremism and military fascism.
Pakistan today is not a democracy. It is a jihadist cartel with nuclear weapons and a PR agency.
It’s time the world woke up and declared it what it is:
A terror-exporting rogue state, and the single biggest destabiliser of South Asia.
