Baluchistan Burning-An International Sadistic Game

It's DE' j voe at Quetta. This time around the victims of mindless terror are the innocent female students and the hospital patients. "It can't be Pakistanis or Muslims" is the unified thought process at Pakistan. Such mind boggling terror and senseless killings are the act of proxies operating for enemies of Pakistani State and it's integration. This is the verdict so unanimous at both Pakistani think tanks and the people on the footpaths and drawing rooms alike. The message by the enemies of Pakistani state who are States themselves is transparent, but Pakistani Government is diplomatically bound to openly take their names and lodge protest as such. They will not let Pakistan live in peace and prosper and allow peace to prevail at Baluchistan as that would bear following  consequences:-

> Pakistanis would be able to  establish Gawader as a second strategic deep sea port, which will provide the Chinese as a forward military base as well.

> China may secure a shorter energy route via land for middle eastern oil imports utilizing Gawader.

> 500-600 billion USD gold reserves denied to the western corporate giants will be utilized by Pakistan thyself.

> Pakistan may utilize the vast mineral resources of Baluchistan to attain financial independence.

Apart the popular belief the Pakistani Intelligence agencies and academicians deduce that there is a planned drive towards making Baluchistan a weak independent entity breaking it away from the Pakistani federation for reasons as following:-

> An independent and weak Baluchistan under western influence with India as their local hustler suits the designs of those states interested in establishing  forward clandestine outposts to check and possibly foment trouble at Iran viz a viz the latter's desires for nuclear power and regional powerhouse status.
> Thus an independent banana republic of Baluchistan allows the states not happy and out to punish Iran as discussed above and also Pakistan for going nuclear at the first place. Stupid chaps they were the Pakistanis to try and attain the nuclear status causing Israelis to loose their midnight sleep for reasons obvious to mostly themselves.
> A weak and independent Baluchistan suits best the western corporates eying to exploit the huge natural resources of the region like they successfully looted and plundered at the Iraq case scenario. Oh! I beg your pardon, they were out there developing the war torn country, I am sorry. While the economic hit men are busy facilitating the process, which is by the way just another business deal for their unholy bosses whose only God is money.............. 

> The banana republic of Baluchistan which they are desperately trying to create suits best the powers who want to check the rise of China. Need we say who these states are?

> The weak and chaotic, war torn conflict zone of Baluchistan would be a paradise for the all powerful narcotics and weapons smugglers of the "Golden Triangle". Mind you, they are the strongest lobby amongst all these jackals discussed above and ruthless in their methods gaining further dividends out of Chaos and feeble  Baluchistan government like that at Afghanistan.

> If allowed and with Gawader up and running, the financial fallout for some "brotherly Islamic Countries" like the UAE with the plastic towns and artificial economies of Dubai and Abu Dhabi will be drastic.............. . No wonder Dubai is the new favourite base for the western and Israeli intelligence to operate from as proved in the recent past.Does that ring any bells?????    

For a common Pakistani at the face of it, India seems to be the prime villain at Baluchistan. India's sponsoring groups like the Baluch Liberation Army (BLA) and other proxies who are typical mercenaries lacking any potent combat capability while carrying out terrorists activities at Pakistan is a well established fact. But few know that Indians are only the pawns in the game.  For the Bishops and Knights we might not look much further while analyzing a most recent happening at Switzerland:-

Britain and America shocked Pakistan and its allies at the 23rd regular session of the United Nations Human Rights Council’s general debate in Geneva on 7 June when the two countries clearly supported nationalist leader Mehran Marri, Baluchistan’s self proclaimed representative to the UN, who spoke against the recent elections and alleged that Pakistan was committing rights abuses in Baluchistan.

China and Cuba came to the rescue of Pakistani delegate but the US and UK delegates were shameless in their attempts to support the otherwise characterless and morally corrupt Mr Marri. These US/UK offensive seems desperate in the face of repeated failed attempts to achieve the desired aim of instigating unrest leading to turmoil and separation of Baluchistan. It is believed by the Pakistani Establishment over the years that there are certain elements within the US and UK governments brewing this trouble facilitated and at times directed by their Israeli counterparts. India being the local mack supporting their sacrilegious partners is operating on dangerous grounds testing the patience of Pakistanis every time BLA and other such proxies strike and vehementay spill innocent blood at Pakistan.

Kingdom of Saudi Arabia and Islamic Republic of Iran are no saint either with more onus of carnage at Pakistan in general and Baluchistan in particular lying on the earlier. Both the countries in their regional sectarian conflict have made Pakistan a battleground of choice. While both countries support respective affiliated sectarian militant outfits, they are indirectly helping the cause of the Jackals discussed above making them a part of the same pack as far as the Pakistanis are concerned.        

while Pakistani leadership needs to put a leash on Iran and KSA for their thirst of power leading to carnage at Pakistan, a situation definitely being exploited by the enemies of Pakistan, the western powers are still untouchable for the "time being". However, India is most likely to pay directly for not only it's own misadventures but those of her mates in bed..........................................

Pakistani Offensive Against Talibans- The Chess Board of Tirah

Tirah Valley is located at the Afghanistan Pakistan border. The valley consists of picturesque plains and majestic mountains which strategically borders three tribal agencies of Pakistan's FATA ( Federally Administered Tribal Region) besides Afghanistan. The significance of this particular Valley and hold over it's mountain is critical for any particular group in order to control the move of various kinds at Afghan Pakistan border. Tirah forms the nodal point for Orakzai, Khyber, Kurram Agencies and is linked to both Afghanistan and Pakistan via Kohat FR and Peshawer's land routes. Tirah is also the route linking Pakistan and Afghanistan with the infamous "Tora Bora" mountains where Osama Bin Laden reportedly was based for a long time. The smuggling corridor is valuable for any party having complete or partial control over these rugged terrain. The militant group controlling the valley have made fortunes in the past facilitating the smugglers, Al Qaeeda and Talibans. Tirah serves as an alternative route from south and north Waziristan via Afghanistan into Pakistani main land as well, in the presence of Pakistani Military controlling all entries and exits of SWA (South Waziristan Agency) and NWA (North Waziristan Agency) to and from Pakistani main land. SWA and NWA are the traditional home grounds of both Afghan and Pakistani Talibans along-with Al Qaeeda and various other international militant and terrorists organizations. A ground route out with logistics accompanied to launch any operation, hence is critical for all these militant outfits, specially for those out of favour with the Pakistani establishment and seeking undetected entry into Pakistan. This is where the Valley of Tirah comes into play. The fight for dominance at Tirah hence is raging since two decades between mainly two groups of the area. These are the Pakistani state aligned Ansar ul Islam (AI) and the Taliban affiliated Lashkar e Islam (LI) lead by Mangal Bagh. The strategic importance of the Tirah Valley is also hence increased, ten folds for the Pakistani military busy in it's "war within" against the Pakistani Talibans (TTP i-e, Tehreek e Taliban Pakistan). In the most recent ongoing offensive by the Pakistani military at Tirah to capture and hold ground lost by AI, more than two dozen fatal casualties were sustained to include three officers in last 40 days alone.

Tirah Valley with it's high plains of Maidan and the mountains surrounding them possess Cold War era sophisticated trench systems on tactical heights all around. Pakistani Talibans in their anti state drive backed Mangal Bagh's LI to take over these heights around 2009-10. This was the time Mangal Bagh, originally a Pakistani state stooge placed to control and contain the Talibans at the suburbs of Peshawar fell from ISI's graces when his militant network became a Frankenstein threatening no place else, but Peshawar it self from Bara area of Khyber, the Mangal Bagh stronghold at that time. Around 2007 Pakistani state took on Mangal Bagh in a bloody battle which forced the latter to retreat towards the Tirah valley. As a result Mangal Bagh forged an anti state alliance with the Pakistani Talibans who in turn supported him for an offensive at Tirah where AI was holding strong ground in post US/NATO invasion of Afghanistan. Talibans had high stakes at Tirah due to obvious reasons and were already wary of Pakistani state aligned AI. In three years those proceeded, the LI and TTP systematically assassinated the AI leadership, while creating divide among the rival sub groups on ethnic/tribal grounds. The LI and TTP successfully overtook the Maidan plains and mountains surrounding it along-with the stated tactical heights. ISI in a bid to maintain Pakistani state significance in the strategic area supported the AI through limited ground and aerial operations. However, these half cooked practices blew back in the shape of heavy losses to men and material at all levels. Emphasis was than laid on restricting the LI and TTP at Tirah heights, in which the Pakistani state partially achieved success. The price of these operations in flesh and material both was much higher than reported in the press/media.

In the most recent drive to regain control and hit TTP hard under their belly while, completely isolating them and than destroying it comprehensively, the Pakistani military leadership led by General Ashfaq Kayani came up with the master plan to check mate the TTP at the chess board of Tirah. Historically, whenever Pakistani military opens an all out offensive against the militants, they abandon posts and flee into Afghanistan, which is practically ungoverned foreign country, out of bound as such for the Pakistani State's war machinery. These militants than operate freely from their Afghan bases only latter to resurface at Pakistan as and when the offensive expires.
(Same holds true for US/ISAF offensive across the border where the Taliban choose to retreat into either SWA or NWA)
However, this time around there is a "twist" in the story for the Talibans upon whose tail, the Pakistani military boots are squeezing hard. The pressure is so very intense that even after two weeks of the killing of the TTP second in command Wali ur Rehamn in a US drone strike, the TTP is unable to reply even as a symbolic attack, but is restricted to media balderdash  alone. The supposed aces employed by Pakistani military are ISI controlled non state militant groups, engaging the TTP within Afghanistan. These groups are waging a war against the TTP who they consider to be sponsored by the anti Pakistani elements and states such as India of which substantial proofs are reportedly held with the ISI. The notorious Lashkar e Taiba (LeT) now called Jamat ud Dawah's  highly trained and motivated militants along-with the AI men thirsty for the blood of LI for vendetta are operating freely at Afghanistan being non state actors creating serious trouble for the Talibans. Within the Pakistani borders in particular at the Tirah valley the Pakistani military is busy in all out offensive which is likely to throw the TTP and LI into Afghan territory where the militants of LeT and AI are already positioned to take them head on. For the first time in the history of this conflict the TTP is surrounded from three sides (North and East covered by the Pakistani military and west by the LeT and AI). on the fourth direction i-e, south and south west lies the inaccessible Tora Bora mountain ranges, which itself is death penalty to climb without the proper high altitude equipment lacked by the TTP and LI. The gaps are being plugged by the Pakistani military and affiliated tribesmen who are anti Taliban because of the latter's bloody thirst of power for which they are ravaging the tribal areas of Pakistan while what is now widely believed by the Pakistanis to be a foreign hostile agenda with TTP as their pawns.

If this game goes in accordance with the plan of GHQ at Rawalpindi, the TTP is in for a disaster like none before ........................................ Pakistan Army have got many scores to settle in this battle.
