In response to: US Congressional hearing may spell trouble for Pakistan

In response to a recently published article:

Ironically,US is the one who started the insurgency in Balochistan in the first place. Just like it started the so called “Arab Spring”. Libya,Egypt and now Syria are all mischief of US and one can see through the conspiracy linked with oil or Israel.
Balochistan was perfectly peaceful till after US invaded Afghanistan. With the help of RAW and Mossad,US started fomenting militancy and the insurgency slowly during 2003-2005. India was given a free access to Afghanistan and it quickly opened Consulates in Qandahar and Zahidan and started sending trained Baloch insurgents to kill Punjabis and security forces in Baloch areas of Balochistan. From 2007 onwards thousands of Punjabis were killed,over a million non-Baloch migrated to Karachi and Punjab. US did not raise a voice then. Human Rights only become visible to US when it suits its strategic aspirations. With Pakistan’s defiance after US troops killed 28 Pakistani soldiers,there is a visible resuscitation of insurgency in Baloch areas since mid December 2011. And now the Hearing! Very clearly,US is trying to pressurize Pakistan to allow supplies to its losing military adventure in Afghanistan and weaken her as much as it can.

Brahmdagh Bugti was protected by US in Afghanistan. He was made to live next to Karzai’s palace from where he,with professional support of CIA/RAW,directed insurgency in Baloch areas of Balochistan. He managed to have John Solecki,UNHCR’s Head in Balochistan,kidnapped. Then even managed to get $ 25 million from Anne Patterson,the then US Ambassador and only then,US shifted Brahmdagh to Switzerland,where he now lives in comfort but still carries on militancy in Baloch areas. Not only he,two sons of Khair Bakhsh Marri and Suleman Ahmadzai,so called Khan of Kalat,have also been given asylum in Switzerland and London. David Cameron,like Tony Blair,is always willing to do biddings of US.

US opened several anti Pakistan Baloch-Websites in Jerusalem and New York and these are dutifully being updated to spread propaganda like a business corporation would do.

And what Baloch issue? Balochistan is not where only Baloch live,the wrong name not withstanding. Nearly one third of Balochistan is peaceful where Pashtuns,Hazaras,Kurds,Sindhis and settlers live. Even the areas where Baloch and Brahuis live is not all disturbed. Only components of three tribes,Marri,Bugti and Mengal ( who are Brahuis) have been carrying out insurgency. Even in their areas,much of the area is peaceful. The militants go on roving “missions” duly briefed by their handlers,and kill here and there and throw some explosives and mines. For every killing they are paid. ISI should check the millions of rupees which are coming through Western Union postal system to Dalbandin,Noshki,Khuzdar,Dera Murad Jamali etc,all small places but getting huge sums from aboard. These are not remittances of expatriates,these are payments for killing security forces and Punjabis.

Does the US not know the true population of Baloch in Balochistan? Its not more that 3-4 million,while Baluchistan’s population is around 7-8 million,and Pakistan is pushing the figure of 180 million. There are far more Baloch living in Punjab and Sindh than in Balochistan. US cannot handle 40-50 million rebellious Pashtuns in Afghanistan and it now wants to further antagonize this massive population?

No one ,other than perhaps diplomats,like the US anymore. Not the people of US,but the state policies which are grossly detrimental to Pakistan,are despised. US Congressional hearings will only further exacerbate the massive hatred prevailing towards US.

And why is US Congress not hearing about Chechnya? Kashmir? Palestine? Somalia? Zambia? And a lot of other global issues? The Bush,and now Obama Administration’ is sowing such seeds of hatred in the minds of Pakistanis that for generations they will not be able to eradicate this hate.
