FAKE NEWS for the Zionist agenda The demonstrators gathered to show their frustration over the Pakistani government’s decision by chanting anti-US slogans and calling on Pakistani authorities to reconsider their decision.
“Stop the NATO supply, it’s destroying Pakistan,” the protestors’ placards read.
Pakistan has been the main supply route for US-led forces occupying neighboring Afghanistan.
Islamabad closed the border crossings used to transfer NATO supplies to Afghanistan in November 2011, after 24 Pakistani soldiers were killed in US-led airstrikes on two checkpoints at the Afghan border.
Islamabad reopened the routes after nearly eight months under a deal struck last week.
The reopening came after the US Secretary of State Hillary Clinton announced in a statement that she offered “deepest regrets for the tragic incident” during a telephone conversation with her Pakistani counterpart, Hina Rabbani Khar.
In June, NATO reached agreements with Uzbekistan, Kyrgyzstan, and Kazakhstan to allow the Western military alliance to transport vehicles and other military hardware from Afghanistan.
NATO previously made an agreement with Russia on an exit route, permitting the alliance to send tens of thousands of vehicles and supplies from Afghanistan to Europe later this year.
The Pakistani government’s decision to reopen the passageways has sparked massive protests across the country.
