International humanitarian organizations, particularly INGOs, have firstly, through an apolitical and "developmental" approach, which is furthermore affectively apathetic, contributed to the reinforcement of the oppressive Pakistani military as powerful over civilian government. And secondly, INGO promotion of universal cultural values combined with a negation of the local political consciousness, has respectively, antagonized and alienated local communities, leading to a deepening of the entrenchment of violent militant group JuD in the national consciousness as the "affective ally."
