US congressman tables bill for Baloch right to independence
Motion points out a troubled history, province’s continuous marginalisation.

WASHINGTON: Nearly a week after he chaired a Congressional hearing on Balochistan, US Congressman Dana Rohrabacher introduced a resolution in the US House of Representatives calling upon Pakistan to recognise the Baloch right to self determination.
The motion, which has been co-sponsored by House Representatives Louie Gohmert and Steve King, highlights Balochistan’s troubled past with the centre after the creation of Pakistan.
According to the text, ‘revolts’ in 1958, 1973 and 2005 “indicate continued popular discontent against Islamabad’s rule, and the plunder of its vast natural wealth while the province remains the poorest in the country.”
It is US policy to “oppose aggression and the violation of human rights inherent in the subjugation of national groups as currently being shown in Iran and Pakistan against the aspirations of the Baloch people,” said the motion.
In a definitive spin to the current tension, the resolution asserts that the people of Balochistan that are “currently divided between Pakistan, Iran, and Afghanistan, have the right to self-determination and to their own sovereign country,” adding that they should be afforded the opportunity to choose their own status among the community of nations.
In a statement from his office, Rohrabacher, who is also the Chair of the House Foreign Affairs Subcommittee on Oversight and Investigations, added, “The Baloch, like other nations of people, have an innate right to self-determination. The political and ethnic discrimination they suffer is tragic and made more so because America is financing and selling arms to their oppressors in Islamabad.”
Meanwhile, the Foreign Office has strongly condemned the resolution terming it as “highly irresponsible and a blatant interference in the domestic issues of the country,” adding that it is a violation of international laws.

… I think the Govt of Balochistan, the FC and the military need to reassess their approach and make a concerted effort in Balochistan to counter ‘the multi bahini model’ being perpetrated by India and the US there … in the same way as the Govt of KPK and the Pakistan Army did in Swat, South Waziristan ands Bajaur – where the US attempt to implement India’s ‘multi bahini model’ …. Also, the same, patient approach is being followed for Khyber, North Waziristan and Orakzai … TTP (and its masters are on the run) …
… the failure of RAW Consulting Group’s advice and plans in SWAT were a good s a real slap in the face of Indians …
In perpetrating the ‘multi bahini model’ … India aims to infiltrate its agents (including local collaborators) …and then draw in the full force of the military, and hopes that the military might will not be able to distinguish between the innocent locals and the infiltrators … hence the place going up in flames!
… in Bengal it worked … in KPK it was very intelligently countered and foiled … so, it can easily be foiled in Balochistan …

What’s wrong with self determination. Pakistan always support the right of self determination for oppressed nations like Kashmiri people & Palestinians.

You know when the Americans get involved, they usually have their way!!!!
Baloachistan was never a part of Pakistan ever in history. It was annexed NINE MONTHS after the formation of Pakistan. So Pakistan has no case for occupying baloachistan.
The case of Kashmir is totally different since it has been Indian land all throughout history. Also, india has full legal title over Kashmir. Moreover, only natives have right of self determination over a territory. Kashmiri Muslims are not natives of Kashmir as they are Iranian and Uzbek people. Pandits are the only and real natives. So muslims cannot have any right of self-determination in a land that is not their own.

Pakhtun uprising against Pakistan would be more difficult to control because Pakhtuns are now 2nd largest ethnic group in Pakistan.

There are so many misconceptions here. Balochistan and Libya are totally different. Balochi people can elect there leaders whereas libyans were not allowed to do same.
Balochistan and East Pakistan are COMPLETELY different. East Pakistan was hundreds of miles away from Capital and I believe ( may be wrong ) the only country in world to have such a geography. It was natural for Bangladesh to separate from Pakistan. If nothing else the two mass of lands were hundreds of miles away separated by your arch rival. Balochistan is ‘within’ the geography of Pakistan. Any attempt for separation would be severely countered by Afghanistan and Iran as Balochistan separating out from Pakistan ( if ever ! ) would cause permanent future issues for Iran and Afghanistan to give away Baloch majority areas. Even if it gets independence ( if ever ) , the new Balochistan though rich in minerals would be surrounded by arch rivals Iran , Afghanistan and Pakistan. Last but not the least , apart from geographical distance making the defense and governance of East Pakistan more difficult , it also had huge population to support an independence movement. Same is not the case with Baluchistan as the population is small and within that population as well , majority is not pro independence, its only the greedy few sardars !!!

If it turned out any other way I’d come to Pakistan and shout something blasphemous from the rooftops so you can kill me.
This is what I mean when I say Pakistanis need to stop thinking other countries are like them. It’s a reason for most of your blunders. You’re always, always coming at every issue from the wrong direction. They’re bad judgment calls and bad judgment calls means incompetence. Incompetence means further lack of respect.

Of course, you are wrong. Continental US and Alaska and Hawaiian Islands have the same geography. But they are not a Muslim country – a big difference. Look around. Understand all Muslim countries are out of step with the times and must come to grief one way or another at some time or another. The only Muslim countries which are a bit stable are Malaysia (due to a large Indian and Chinese population) and Turkey ( a born Jew – Kemal Ataturk – bequeathed to them a political system which they are now trying desperately to islamize). Even Egypt with such an ancient civilization is now floundering. There is no escaping the fact that Muslims simply are inept and can’t govern themselves.

There is still time to be educated about Pakistan and its multiethnic, multiculture society and its economic challenges. This is purely an internal matter and Pakistan Army need to take charge and clean Balochistan from the foreign spies and terrorist funding insurgents, in order to bring peace, law and order.
