Mr. Chaudhry, Judge Advocate, Vice President of the Supreme Court Bar Association in Pakistan and a leading advocate for democratic government reform, said “Citizens of Pakistan do not support U.S. military aggression in Iraq and Afghanistan, which they believe is intended to gain wealth, profits, hidden reserves of oil and minerals in the Afghanistan region. We believe citizens in countries around the world should work together to stop the U.S. violation of the sovereignty of States in order to carry out the plan for U.S. global hegemony.”
He added “Their apprehensions after 9/11 have come true”.
