Zionist Organization of America (ZOA) National President Morton A. Klein released the following statement:  

It is outrageous that on the eve of Islamic Pakistan serving as a mediator between the United States and the Nazi-like, Jew-hating, U.S.-hating Iranian Islamic regime, Pakistan’s Minister of Defense Khawaja Muhammad Asif posted on X a series of the most heinous blood libels against America’s close ally Israel and the Jewish people.  Among other horrible libels, Asif posted that “Israel is evil and a curse for humanity”; falsely accused Israel of committing “genocide” and “unabated” “bloodletting” against “innocent citizens” in Gaza and Lebanon; and posted “I hope and pray people who created this cancerous state on Palestinian land to get rid of European jews burn in hell.”

Islamic Pakistan cannot possibly be a neutral mediator when its leaders are so clearly in the Islamic Iranian regime’s camp, and are so full of unwarranted, hateful bile towards America’s close ally and the Jewish people. Islamic Pakistan needs to be removed from the mediator role. If it is too late to do so, then the U.S. negotiating team needs to carefully account for the severe bias that it is dealing with. 

There are, moreover, many other reasons why Pakistan is not a fair-minded mediator, including that Pakistan continues to harbor, and even in some cases assist, some of the most vicious U.S.-designated Islamic foreign terrorist organizations, such as Lashkar-e-Tayyiba (LeT), numerous LeT front groups including The Resistance Front, the Haqqani Network and Jaish-e-Mohammed (JeM).
