Jordan's King Hussein killed more Palestinians in 11 days than Israel could kill in 20 years, former Israeli Defence Minister Moshe Dayan is quoted by authors to have said. And it was none other than Pakistan’s General Muhammad Zia-Ul-Haq, then a Brigadier, who helped King Hussein carry out the massacre of 25,000 Palestinians, in what is now known as Black September of 1970.
With the thousands of Palestinians, irony too, died a thousand deaths.
On October 17, Pakistan army chief General Syed Asim Munir extended “diplomatic, moral and political support of the Pakistani nation” to the Palestinians. Pakistanis, too, have taken to the streets against Israel’s counter-offensive in Gaza after Hamas terrorists butchered hundreds of Israelis on October 7.
