“Nijjar wasn’t just a plumber any more than Osama a construction engineer”: Ex Pentagon Official
Sep 23, 2023
Washington DC (USA), Sept 23 (ANI): Former Pentagon Official Michael Rubin on September 23 slammed US Secretary of State Antony Blinken’s remarks on the killing of Khalistani terrorist Hardeep Singh Nijjar and said Nijjar wasn’t just a plumber any more than Osama a construction engineer. “...Let’s not fool ourselves, Hardeep Singh Nijjar was not simply a plumber any more than Osama Bin Laden was a construction engineer. He had blood on his hands through multiple attacks. And therefore, while Secretary Blinken may after the facts, say that the United States will always stand against transnational oppression. We're actually being hypocritical if Secretary Blinken makes that statement because after all, what we're talking about isn't transnational repression. We're talking about transnational terrorism and what the United States did to Qasem Soleimani and what the United States did to Osama Bin Laden is really no different than what India is alleged to have done in this case,” said Michael Rubin.
