The spokesman recalled that this Ministry had rebutted similar false reports earlier on December 18, 2020. As reiterated earlier, there was no change in Pakistan’s principled position, he added.
He said that Pakistan had consistently called for a two-state solution, with pre-1967 borders and Al-Quds Sharif as the capital of Palestinian State.
Pakistan’s dilemma
Pakistani diaspora is very different from other nations as they are emotional, extremists, and a tit-for-tat kind of people. They are on the streets asking the Pakistan military to take military action against Israel. They called for Jihad during the past week and supplications of Israeli destruction are in full swing.
To address this reaction, I have two thoughts in my mind. If Pakistan even prepares to fire any weapon or “Atom bomb” towards Israel, the US, with its sophisticated weapon system, will stand before Israel making any move of Pakistan useless.

Our missiles and weapons are for defense and they can only be used when there is no other option left concerning the defense of the country and cannot be used the way our nation has fantasized.
Second, the USA, with its allies, will seize the Pakistan nuclear stockpile and they will have a legit reason to enter Pakistan and “save the world”. No one will come to the rescue, not even KSA or Turkey. They will “urge” the UN to interfere, as being witnessed before on many occasions.

USA and allies have a strong presence in neighboring Afghanistan which they can use to neutralize Pakistan’s aggression against Israel in the blink of an eye.
Do not turn a blind eye to India also. They are ready to provide Israel with bases to launch strikes against Pakistan if they see any existential threat to Israel. Pakistan will turn into another Syria, Kashmir, or Palestine and we will consequently see more suffering of the Muslims.
