Re: House Hearings on Balochistan: US Mulls Balkanization of Pakistan

well I blame Pakistan army/establishment more for this mess, we had the map published by Ralph Peters (2006) depicting the kind of Pakistan that would exist in the future (by the way that Pakistan wouldnt include FATA as well) . Our army played into their trap. They had a lot of chances of withdrawing from Balochistan on their own terms, but in their arrogance they missed those chances and in fact deteriorated the situation instead of improving it. None of the provincial assembles, national assembly had time for the Baloch, for media memogate and other trivial issues were more important than Balochistan.

Now we have Balochistan being discussed in American House (moral victory for the baloch) with Pakistan (Army) under pressure and now they will have to solve the problem under pessure with the militants on top and confident.

Exactly, we should have had made a Free Balochistan before americans could try to push for it.
