Since the creation of the dominion of Pakistan, Pakistan has aided and abetted terrorists and has used the element of proxy war chiefly targeting its neighbors. It has acted as a safe haven for terrorists including bin laden who was responsible for the deadly 9/11 attacks. The Haqqani Network and Mullah Mansour of Taliban have found safe haven in Pakistan. Also its nuclear programme was suspicious in nature with allegations of proliferation.There is a grave danger that its nuclear arsenals could fall into the hands of jihadists. The mass graves reported to be found in Baluchistan are a testament to its gross human rights violation. I think the time has come to brand it as a terrorist sponsoring state rather than condoning its violations.
