KARACHI, Nov 23: The Jamaat-i-Islami Secretary General, Syed Munawwar Hasan, has said that the technology has been defeated by the power of faith and the ongoing resistance in Iraq and Afghanistan to the allied forces is the manifestation of this reality.
Speaking at a gathering in Bin Qasim, Mr Hasan said that the United States, fearing humiliating defeat, was prepared to hold negotiations with the representatives of Taliban in Afghanistan. After Sept 11 tragedy, he said, the US and forces of infidels had made the rulers of Muslim countries its agents, making life of Ummah and Jehadi forces miserable.
“The FBI personnel were moving freely after bargaining over freedom and sovereignty,” he said. However, he added that the spirit behind martyrdom had been defeating the technology.
At another gathering, JI Karachi chief Dr Mairaj-ul-Huda Siddiqui said that the defeat was destined for the US in Iraq and Afghanistan. He said that the occupied territories would very soon turn into their graveyards.
