Is This Ertugrul or He is Mard e Momin, Mard e Haq

'Mard e Momin, Mard e Haq'? 

Gen. Zia-ul-Haq: The butcher of Palestinians during Black September, 1970

The role of General Zia-ul-Haq in the events of Black September (1970), involving killing of 25,000 Palestinians in Jordan​.

During Black September the head of Pakistani training commission took command of the 2nd Division and helped kill and cleanse the Palestinians (est. 25,000 dead) from Jordan.

It was none other than Zia ul Haq.

So much for the Palestinian cause.

The butcher was awarded Jordan's highest honor for the services rendered.

Zia was stationed in Jordan from 1967 to 1970 as a Brigadier, helping in the training of Jordanian soldiers, as well as leading the training mission into battle during the Black September operations as commander of Jordanian 2nd Division, a strategy that proved crucial to King Hussein's remaining in power.

Arafat claimed that the Jordanian army killed 25,000 Palestinians, other estimates put the number at between 2,000 and 3,400. The Syrian invasion attempt ended with 120 tanks lost, and around 600 Syrian casualties. Jordanian soldiers suffered around 537 dead.

Is he Hero of Palestinian Movement?
How history claimed him 'Mard e Momin, Mard e Haq'? 
Is history blind?
