Civilization is the assembly of all the things to which we attach the highest price

Morality,Durkheim tells us consists of a system of rules of conduct which presupposes society or group life. In today’s Shi’ite Iran it is morally acceptable to hack off a hand or foot of healthy humans being in the name of justice.Throwing human beings from the top of mountains for the acts that western society regard as normal behavior. Alcohol consumption is a punishable crime and justice is carried out in public. Infidelity is a crime punishable by death. These practices called Islamic justice are issued by the Iranian’s high court, on that court Presides Shi’ites holly man (FAQH). Hacking ones hands and leg is not justice but torture at its highest brutality. Persian moral has less conflict with orders issued by their justice system, because religion is one element that unifies non Persian Shi’ite with Persian, over all in some society religion is a unifying factor and Iran is not exceptional. Iran is a multi ethnic nation and Shi’ite majority.
Balochistan has been divided in between three states Iran, Pakistan, Afghanistan, Baloch language, culture and sense of nation hood is still alive. Some Baloch still pursue aspirations for unified Baloch homeland.
Iranian occupied Baloch populations are Sunni sect of Islam. Iranian constitution discriminate non Shi’ite communities and limit their participation in civil servant jobs and businesses. Iranian Regime mistrusts Baloch and regards them as British, American and Saudis collaborators. Iran actively encourages Sunni Baloch to change their religion to Shi’ite sect of Islam. The regime rewards those who are willing to change their religion to shi’ite with a job for life.
Baloch feel that their dignity is diminishing, the ideas and way of life they develop by themselves in the result of the co-operation of men in association through successive generations. What Baloch society made, preserves and tries to transmit it to the individual, Persian attempt to destroy that.
“Civilization is the assembly of all the things to which we attach the highest price; it is the congregation of the highest human values.”
I believe us, Baloch, and them Persians could not congregate on one high value, they should find ways to recognize other cultural boundaries and accept each other as human beings with equal right to live and preserve their nation and state. To shield their culture and language. In other words have respect for human being.
