Quaid-i-Azam talked about nukes: Pirzada

[sarmad]

KARACHI - Legal expert and former foreign minister, Syed Sharifuddin Pirzada, has disclosed that Quaid-i-Azam Muhammad Ali Jinnah had talked about devising an atomic bomb through indirect ways due to the desire of Gandhi to use against Britain.
Quoting the reference of a book entitled Gandhi Bhand the Mask of Twenty, written by G B Singh, he said that June 16, 1947, Gandhi, in his speech, had categorically said: If we had atomic bomb, we would have used it against Britain.
Pirzada was talking to Waqt News TV channel at his office on Thursday.
Responding to Gandhi speech, Quaid-i-Azam in his speech on January 23, 1948, described the dangerous aftermaths of the World War-II and said that Pakistan would obtain every possible defence system to halt the ways of transgression. Jinnah has termed Kashmir as the nerve of the Pakistan, and said several times that no country or nation can bear any sword on its nerve.
He also disclosed that before the visit of former US President Bill Clinton to Pakistan, the foreign minister of Musharraf regime had agreed in the cabinet meeting to sign Nuclear Proliferation Treaty (NPT), but on my meddling another minister stopped Musharraf from doing so.
He praised the efforts made by Chief of Army Staff General Kayani to encounter the terrorism. He also appreciated the role of Prime Minister Yousuf Gilani in dealing the Pakistan-Iran gas pipeline issue.

is pirzada trying to say he is too good and every one else is bad.........what was he doing when he himself was in charge ?
and well if quaid mentioned about nukes it was vision of quaid e azam.......

what about vision of those who say quaid was not graduate .........are they trying to stand shoulder to shoulder with quaid ? or are they trying to prove that quaid was also corrupt like them ?

Every one of these big wigs talk about such issues after a long time has passed and much confusion has been created. It seems to me some of the revelations are like after thoughts.
As far as Quaid-e- Azam's thoughts are concerned they do seem to be in line with his desire to make Pakistan strong and his knowledge of the true-behind-the-peacefull-facade of Gandhi's policies.
