It is sad to see the struggle for national liberation in
the Eastern Baluchistan turned to war of Baluch against the Baluch. Elections come
and go, but division among the Baluch going to stay within Baluch nation,
some people have decided to shed the Bloods of the others, for the election which already
looks as the failed election. After all we want to liberate Baluchistan for the
Baluch with the help of the Baluch.
The point is
that Baluchistan not going to be liberated by killing the others Baluch; the
state has enough resources and tools to use against the Baluch. The International
community’s opinion is not in favour of violence especially violence committed
against their own people. It is hard to defend attacks on Zahri or any others
unarmed or another Baluch tribal chief.
I do
not know Sana Zahri personally I do not like these guys, but I am in a pain
because he lost a young son a brother, nephews and tribesmen. I am saddened
these people lost their lives needlessly. These lives could be saved. I thought
the human lives worth more than party politic or an ideology.
Some of us believe
that no one in Baluchistan is divine to impose its will on the others. Only
dictators have claims of 97 or 99 percent popular support and they are self-centred,
righteous man; in a democratic society’s people have diverse opinions and
people debate and use power of persuasion not coercion to convince their
country man.
I asked a friend with a good knowledge of tribal mind set
and politic in Baluchistan what is going on? He replied that the ISI and
Pakistani establishment have initiated a policy of clean up in Baluchistan. I do
not know how many of you know about (FATA) Pushtun region where Taliban killed
250 tribal chiefs and played football with their heads. In tribal society one
cannot remove tribal chiefs and turn tribal society into social democracy,
remove tribal chiefs Taliban will take their places.
My main point of argument is that the ISI and establishment
are clearing way for religious party in Baluchistan, we are aware of the fact
that the corrupt tribal chiefs are secular and powerful in order to clear the
way for religious fundamentalist party Sardars have to be moved out of the
fundamentalists way. The Baluch internal tribal war will weaken the Baluch
nation in the Eastern Baluchistan and clear the way for Pakistani establishment
to impose religious political party in Baluchistan.
The national liberation for the Baluch cannot be achieved in an
isolation. The leaders must have patient, by killing the Baluchistan parliamentarian
leaders or attacking their election campaign trails Baluchistan will not be
liberated.
The pro-Pakistan political parties have lost the moral ground
within the Baluch communities and Pakistan has lost legitimacy to rule over the Baluchistan, do not provide opportunity
to pro-Pakistan political parties to claim they are the victims of violence. It
is Pakistan and its agencies kill and dump the Baluch in the wildness.
