Re: Indians call BLA (Balochistan Liberation Army) Freedom Fighters
I had a buddy called Sukhdeep Verdee, he changed his name to Scott Victor
After putting a absolutely biased up thread, again laughing at a single person ... Thanks for not generalizing....
Re: Indians call BLA (Balochistan Liberation Army) Freedom Fighters
i’m sure he is also laughing at the mohammads and ahmeds going by “mo” and “andy”.
Re: Indians call BLA (Balochistan Liberation Army) Freedom Fighters
however, i do think india should officially refer to the balochis as freedom fighters, and they should use the exact phrase verbatim that pakistan uses on kashmir...."we extend full moral and diplomatic support" to the balochis.
of course, timing is bad with the peace process....but that is exactly what the indian stance should be.
what about nexalites are they freedom fighters as well?
Re: Indians call BLA (Balochistan Liberation Army) Freedom Fighters
thats very sad for India to do that..bla is an army of thugs and criminals who work for nawab bugti..they don't represent the baloch people

Re: Indians call BLA (Balochistan Liberation Army) Freedom Fighters
They dont want seperate land my dear. They want better oppertunities for their people. They would like to create a maoist India.. well if that was created then better watch out.. India will go full military.
Re: Indians call BLA (Balochistan Liberation Army) Freedom Fighters
No Vinesh the point is that that is your internal affair.
Now BLA is our internal problem and you cannot compare it to kashmir issue because kashmir is our common problem.
I hope you got my point.
Re: Indians call BLA (Balochistan Liberation Army) Freedom Fighters
^ BLA wants a seperate country.. dont they. kashmiris also want a seperate country. India says that its their internal problem. Pakistan says that its not an internal problem. So why not India encourage BLA just like Pakistan encouraging seperatism in Kashmir.
Majority of Indians believe that Pakistan has no right over Kashmir. Even the Kashmiries may opt for Independence rather than go with pakistan. So why is Pakistan meddling in Kashmir and why cannot then India meddle in BLA.
Any way we are not the greatest of friends, are we. pakistan had the greatest oppertunity of settling the Kashmiri dispute but they blew it with Kargil.So I dont think India should ever see an oppertunity to break up Pakistan go begging.
Re: Indians call BLA (Balochistan Liberation Army) Freedom Fighters
Believe you me if kashmiris want a seperate country for themselves its not a problem by me, my tax money will go to a better cause.
Re: Indians call BLA (Balochistan Liberation Army) Freedom Fighters
the internal affair being inapplicable to kashmir is a bogus argument in this context. pakistani claim on kashmir is separate from the gov’ts PR commentary about “moral and diplomatic support for freedom fighters”. they don’t say “we support them so long as they want to accede to pakistan because it is not an internal affair of india”…of course, that is understood by all, but it is not the official stance.
the principles upon which these comments are supposedly based are irrelevant to pakistan’s claim on kashmir…rather they are supposedly generic comments supporting muslim brothers seeking freedom.
similarly, without having any claim on baluchistan, India should should morally and diplomatically support its balochi brothers.
the world expresses support for the citizens of Darfur without being a party to sudan’s “internal affair”, right?
Re: Indians call BLA (Balochistan Liberation Army) Freedom Fighters
one man's terrorist is another's freedom fighter. hell, even the same guy goes from freedom fighter to terrorist based on where he explodes his bomb. for eg., pakistan's ex-favorite prodigies - hizb-ul-mujahideen and jaish-e-mohammad - even poor pakistanis would collect money for their "freedom fighters" to kill in the kashmir valley, but when the same two organizations exploded a few bombs in pakistan, they became "terrorists" overnight. maulana masood azhar went from brave and outspoken voice of momins to terrorist chief under house arrest.
should india exploit the balochi insurgency? if pak insists on fomenting trouble in kashmir, by all means yes. two can play the game.
Re: Indians call BLA (Balochistan Liberation Army) Freedom Fighters
Pakistan doesn't provide same support to Muslim "freedom fighters" around the world, does it?

What are we going to have next ILA ( islamabad lib army) or FLA ( F-8/3 Lib army) ?
Re: Indians call BLA (Balochistan Liberation Army) Freedom Fighters
you’re right, pakistan doesn’t want to annex palestinian or chechen territories.
you are only supporting my point that pakistan’s support for kashmiri rebellion is two-faced. it would not be diplomatic of pakistan to say “we only support kashmiri rebellion if they want to merge into pakistan” or “we only support kashmiri rebellion so it keeps indian resources engaged”. my point is that the very face used in official statements should be replicated word for word by india re: baluchistan.
why is it interfering in internal pakistani affairs to give them moral and emotional support?
it might be childish, but politics between rivals is often childish. it would send a clear message.
they support our hockey team.
Re: Indians call BLA (Balochistan Liberation Army) Freedom Fighters
If Pakistan gives moral/emotional support to Maoists or Naxalites then that would count as “meddling in internal affair” as it is not in direct interests of Pakistan, but Kashmir is… so whether Pakistani govt supports Kashmiris with one face or 2 faces, it doesn’t matter coz its a direct interest.
since when? 
Re: Indians call BLA (Balochistan Liberation Army) Freedom Fighters
the pakistani national interest component of kashmir is solely related to annexation of the territory (and also bleeding india, but that is another story). this is not the language used by pakistan because it would be crude to tell the truth…instead, they pretend to only care about kashmiri happiness and play the “muslim brothers” card.
if kashmiri happiness is the stated reason for moral support, then equally baluchi happiness can be cited by indians. neither of these statements would be relevant to talk about “internal affair” and “direct national interest”.
Re: Indians call BLA (Balochistan Liberation Army) Freedom Fighters
I condemn this writer who knows no logic from adam.
I would condemn any one including India if it interfers with Pakistan's internal affair.
I would clearly say Kashmir is not even comparable to the issue raised in this thread. Its a dispute between two countries and the Balochistan issue has nothing to do with India or indian writer or indian newspaper or indian media unless they go along with Pakistani official stand or majority Pakistani desires to call these few balochis whatever they like.
Re: Indians call BLA (Balochistan Liberation Army) Freedom Fighters
moral support and compassion transcends national boundaries. 
Re: Indians call BLA (Balochistan Liberation Army) Freedom Fighters
All kind of support for evil doers is anything but moral.
Only some people with 'evil intention' will not get this point.
