Does anyone remember the reality TV show Karachi Cops? Those bad boys didn’t mess around. No KFC or ‘interventions’ for their suspects. If the perp doesn’t confess, then just beat the soles of their feet until they do.
Now, the Pakistani government is likewise not messing around with ‘asylum seekers’.
Western governments wring their hands, or worse, simply usher millions of illegal grifters across their borders and into luxury, taxpayer-funded digs in hotel rooms and a fast track to the welfare office. Pakistan is baldly saying, “F- off, we’re full. Back home for you!”
Pakistan wants to deport Afghans seeking refuge by the end of the month, reports the BBC. Around 1.7 million people are affected who have not yet received official refugee status.
No doubt the chatterers of the left will wail and clutch their bodices, but Islamabad has a very good reason for putting its foot down. As they have, everywhere else in the world they’ve invaded, ‘asylum seekers’ are rewarding the generosity of their unwilling hosts by behaving very, very badly.
The reason: There have been 24 suicide attacks by militant Islamists in the border region since January alone. According to Islamabad, the radical Islamic Taliban ruling in Kabul are behind this, but the Taliban deny this. Just last week, 50 people died in a terrorist attack on a mosque. The wave of attacks is causing resentment against “illegal” Afghans in the country.
Nearly every terror attack in Australia in the past 20 years can be sheeted home to ‘refugees’ or their Australian-born offspring. Enough should have been enough, long ago.
And there’s no need for scare quotes around illegal. If someone enters your country without legal authorisation, they’re illegal, and stuff the UN. UN Conventions do not have the force of law in sovereign countries. “Sovereignty”, which is supposed to be the UN’s bedrock principle, means exactly that: sovereign nations make their own laws, no one else, and they have every right to defend the integrity of their borders. Indeed, if you don’t have control of your borders, you’re not a sovereign country.
The already enormous wave of refugees from the neighboring country has grown even further since the Taliban returned to power in 2021. Almost 2.2 million Afghans already have a right of residence, while the government describes the remaining 1.7 million refugees who do not yet have status as “illegal”.
Because, see above, that’s exactly what they are.
All of these people must have left the country by November 1st, either “voluntarily or they will be deported,” said Interior Minister Sarfraz Bugti. He also announced a special task force that would confiscate private companies or properties belonging to “illegal Afghans in the country.” Eyewitnesses are already reporting raids.

Well, you know: if Afghans were so desperate not to have the Taliban in power, perhaps they shouldn’t have spent 20 years fighting tooth and nail against the West, who outed the Taliban in the first place. Afghanistan has made its bed, over 20 years of Western blood and treasure. It’s time they were left to lie in it.
There’s not a lot I’d praise Pakistan for, but having the balls to shove off ‘asylum seekers’ who bring their violent resentments over the border with them is a good start.
