Blogging Balochistan
Thursday, 3 February 2005
Hurting Pakistan
In those few days of early January at Sui, about 1000 rockets were fired. This week, there wasn't a single day when Balochistan wasn't rocked by blasts. Quetta, Khuzadar, Mastung, Kohlu, Turbat, Kalat, Sibi, Sui, etc. Almost any town in Balochistan, that can be called so, has been attacked.

Is this a good strategy?

Well, to an extent, Yes.

Pakis have been so far concentrating on the economic benefits and schemes that they have started in Balochistan. Shujahat Hussain says that he has created a package for Baloch that is beyond any Baloch's thought. It is the time to tell them, that roads, electricity, royalties, etc. are not all that we are fighting for. We want sovereignty. We want freedom.

I know the people in Quetta might not be feeling very nice when they aren't able to switch on their electric heaters in this cold, but freedom never comes cheap. We should know that we will have to let go of some luxuries that we enjoy so much, for a greater cause.

What Should be our next step?

Attacking Lahore???

That can wait for the time being.
