Abstract

As a frontline ally, Pakistan shares a long history of fighting with the CIA since the Soviet invasion. The CIA, ISI, and Mujahedeen nexus weaponised the region. Punishing preparators and beneficiaries of 9/11 led the U.S. to initiate a “war on terror”. Pakistan faced human, financial, and security losses. It also demoralised democracy in Pakistan. The research proposes that Pakistan brought destruction to itself by choosing a side in global power politics. War with Afghan freedom fighters against the Soviet invasion blessed Pakistan with terrorism. Terrorism, nurtured under the surveillance of the CIA, turned out to be a death trap plotted by its foreign allies in the region. The literature attempts to connect major historical events since the Soviet invasion, which led the foundation to bleed Pakistan. The dissertation tries to underpin the importance of Pakistan for counter-terrorism, peace, and stability in the region. It also discusses Pakistan’s role and efforts in the fight against terrorism.
