The ongoing war in Iran has elicited reactions—both positive and negative—from leaders worldwide. Debate over the validity of U.S. and Israel operations is welcome, regardless of opinion.

However, hypocrisy must be called out. Pakistan’s deputy prime minister and foreign minister, Ishaq Dar, condemned what he called “unwarranted attacks” on Iran. These comments came after Pakistan launched strikes into Afghanistan’s territory and then declared “open war” after Afghanistan fired back. Note this: Pakistan’s president defended these ongoing strikes by saying that Pakistan exhausted its diplomatic options and that Afghanistan needs to dismantle terror groups that depend on its war economy. That sounds familiar.

I’m not here to judge Pakistan’s strikes against Afghanistan; maybe they do have valid justification. America seemed to be very understanding of Pakistan’s military operations; President Donald Trump spoke kindly of Pakistan’s leaders, and the U.S. State Department affirmed Pakistan’s right to defend itself against Taliban attacks. But if Pakistan strikes Afghanistan for harboring terrorists, doesn’t the U.S. have the same right against Iran, who is one of the greatest sponsors of terrorism?

If the U.S. doesn’t have such a right, then Pakistan doesn’t either. That means Pakistan would have to take the log out of its own eye before trying to take the speck out of America’s.
