Iran promotes its sham "election," UN Watch brought torture victim Marina Nemat

As Iran promotes its sham "election," UN Watch brought torture victim Marina Nemat to tell the truth about what the murderous regime did to her when she was only 16 years old:
 

House Passes Rohrabacher Amendment Tying Human Rights in Pakistan to U.S. Military Aid.


Washington, D.C.: Today, Congressman Dana ’s (R-CA)  amendment tying the Defense Department’s ability to give monetary aid to Pakistan’s military to its treatment of ethnic and religious minority groups was included in final passage of the National Defense Authorization Act of 2014 by the House of Representatives.

 RepDanaRohrabacher-afp
The amendment requires the Secretary of Defense to certify that Pakistan is not using its military to “persecute minority groups for their legitimate and nonviolent political and religious beliefs.” The amendment specifically names the Balochi, Sindhi and Christian minorities, among others.
“This is a giant step forward for those victims of oppression in Pakistan,” said Rohrabacher.  “For the first time their plight is being recognized and a policy is being established of not giving the Pakistani government the weapons to carry on their repression. This is the first time the plight of the Balochi and the Sindhi have been underscored in legislation that links support for Pakistan’s military to how they treat those minority groups.”
Pakistan’s military and security services have long carried out vicious attacks against minorities aimed at depriving them of their right to participate in the political process and their right of self determination. The United States has given over $25 billion dollars of aid to Pakistan since 2001 and this year’s National Defense Authorization Act authorized up to an additional $1.5 billion dollars.
The Rohrabacher amendment was offered with the bipartisan co-sponsorship of Congressman Brad Sherman (D-CA).
Rep. Rohrabacher is Chairman of the House Foreign Affairs Subcommittee on Europe, Eurasia, and Emerging Threats.

Ban urges Pakistan to do 'all it can' to bring Quetta attackers to justice.

UN Secretry General Ban Ki-moon said no cause justifies such violence

United Nations Secretary-General Ban Ki-moon on Saturday strongly condemned the series of deadly attacks targeting a bus, a hospital facility and a national monument Balochistan, which left at least 20 civilians dead, many of whom were female students.
In a statement  issued by his spokesperson, Ban said no cause justifies such violence, and noted with dismay that “violence against women and educators has increased in recent years, the aim being to keep girls from attaining the basic right to education.”
The banned militant organisation Laskhar-e-Jhangvi claimed that it had attacked the bus carrying female university students in Quetta via a suicide bombing. As the dead and injured were rushed to hospital, gunmen stormed the hospice. At least 25 people were killed in the series of attacks which also saw the national monument, the Quaid-e-Azam residency being blown up.
Ban called on the Pakistan government “to do all possible to bring the perpetrators to justice” and expressed the UN’s solidarity “in the face of continued terrorist violence in Pakistan.”

COMMENT : Simple arithmetic — Mir Mohammad Ali Talpur.

The establishment and its intellectuals’ priority has never been the rights of the Baloch and Sindhis

The envisaged Gwadar-Khunjrab-Kashgar railway and oil pipeline, for which a feasibility report was completed by Chinese engineers before Chinese Premier Wen Jiabao’s 2010 visit to Pakistan, bodes evil for the Baloch people’s rights. This is but a part of the larger strategy aimed at ensuring that Balochistan becomes the Tibet and Xinjiang of Pakistan. Masood Khan, Pakistan’s Ambassador to China, had then stated, “We support China’s policy on Tibet, Xinjiang and human rights.” China-Pakistan relations are based on mutual support for human rights violations.


This is amply proved by the fact that during the 23rd regular session of the United Nations Human Rights Council’s general debate in Geneva on June 7, 2013, when Balochistan’s representative to the UN Mehran Marri spoke about Pakistan’s continuing human rights abuses and recent farcical elections in Balochistan, the Pakistani delegate objected, and was supported by the Chinese and Cuban delegates. However, much to their chagrin, the US and UK representatives taking strong exception to their objections, supported Marri and called on the session chair to allow him to complete his statement and be allowed on record. Ironically, the Cuban representative said it was unacceptable for an NGO, conveniently forgetting that they too were once an NGO (pun intended), to attack the territorial integrity and independence of a sovereign state.

The continuing Afghan influx has already changed the demographic balance in parts of Balochistan. This proposed railway will help Pakistan usher in engineered demographic changes to turn the Baloch into a minority in their own land. The recently installed extremely pliable government in Quetta — whose titular chief minister cannot even name a cabinet without Nawaz Sharif’s consent — fully supports these sham mega-projects to bring about required demographic changes. The systematic engineered demographic changes combined with the brutal killings of Baloch activists and ordinary people suspected of sympathies with the Sarmachars (insurgents) are the two-pronged attacks that the Pakistani establishment has unleashed on the Baloch people. The demography issue is a life and death issue as the Baloch people’s destiny hinges on it and the resistance they can muster.

The Pashtuns too are suffering because of the harebrained dreams of strategic depth, which the deep state refuses to abandon in the hope of becoming the arbiter of Afghanistan’s fate and the hope to keep India on the back foot with its non-state actors. This ludicrous policy also sustains sectarian terror.

Sindhis have had the worst of both worlds and are rapidly turning into a minority in Sindh. Once again demands for shifting Biharis there are being made. This does not mean that they have not been coming in slowly, steadily and surreptitiously; where even mechanics can get blue passports at a price, getting an NIC is not a big deal. Thousands of Afghans refugees are bona fide citizens of Sindh; an Afghan colony is slowly taking shape near Bhit Shah and may well become a Sohrab Goth.

The establishment and its intellectuals’ priority has never been the rights of the Baloch and Sindhis. Mr Niaz Mutaza in his piece, “Denied citizenship” in a national daily (June 10, 2013), lamenting the statelessness of Biharis says, “Where there is a clash between right and wrong, passing judgment is easy. However, in real life one is often faced with the dilemma of choosing sides in a clash between two rights. The right of Biharis to come to Pakistan, unfortunately, clashes with the right of Sindhis to retain their numerical majority in their ancestral land. Which right should take precedence? For me, at least, the immediacy of Bihari suffering takes precedence over a demographic eventuality down the decades, which may not even ever occur given the small numbers of Biharis involved and the usually higher fertility rates of rural populations.” Regrettably, only the fertility rates of Sindhis are remembered.

The Biharis’ plight is worthy of compassion but certainly not at the cost of the rights of Sindhis. The massive influx of Biharis will worsen the already skewed demographic picture in Sindh, put Sindhi rights permanently in jeopardy and increase the existing friction. Choosing between what he calls two rights may be easy for the establishment because Biharis will not settle in Punjab and, moreover, the Urdu-speaking population in Sindh will be shored up and easily checkmate future moves for the rights of Sindhis.

The past track record leaves no room for optimism. Qazi Isa Daudpota in a letter to a national weekly (October 19-25, 2012) quoting the PILDAT report ‘Ethnic conflict in Sindh’ by Mr Muhammad Feyyaz wrote: “In rural Sindh another major source of grievance emerged with the controversial allotments to military and civil bureaucrats of the lands brought under cultivation by the Sukkur, Guddu and Ghulam Mohammad Barrages. The abstraction of the centre dominated by Punjabis was now literally brought home to Sindhis in the form of Punjabi landholders who were occupying a substantial portion of the choicest land in Sindh. Out of the 1.48 million acres of land made cultivable by the Ghulam Mohammad Barrage, 0.87 million acres were allocated to defence personnel, tribesmen of Quetta and the Frontier, and settlers from East Pakistan. Of the 0.64 million acres of the Guddu Barrage land, 0.32 million acres were allocated to defence personnel, civil bureaucrats and families displaced by the construction of the new capital, Islamabad, and the Tarbela and Mangla dams. Of the 0.28 million acres of Sukkur Barrage land, 0.13 million acres were given to army personnel. In most instances ‘defence personnel’ were synonymous with Punjabis.” He concluded, “Simple arithmetic shows that of the 2.4 million acres of irrigated land, 55 percent (i.e. 1.32 million acres) went to non-Sindhis.”

The establishment that imposes such injustices on the Baloch and Sindhis denies them their inherent rights and ensures that they remain eternally disadvantaged. All examples of ‘simple arithmetic’ as imposed by the establishment prove that the rights of Sindhis and Baloch who were overtaken by historical accidents in 1947 and 1948 matter not a whit to it. Undoubtedly, the establishment unequivocally thinks it would be better off if these two were either oppressed into submission by military, political and economic means or outnumbered by planted ethnic groups who, being indebted to it, would be completely submissive. The establishment’s blatantly anti-indigenous attitudes smack of not only a colonial propensity but also of brazen and pernicious racism. The regular use of this pernicious ‘simple arithmetic’ rule to the lives of the Baloch and Sindhis forces them to find solutions to the most complicated problems of their liberty and rights through other means.

The terrorist state of Porkistan.


For the past 65 years, Pakistan and its monstrous intelligence services ISI tried all means (Terror Training, Terror Networks, Terror Imports, Terror Exports, Terror Schools, Terror Funding, Terror and Terror, Jihad, Intervention, Aggression, Religious & Minority Hatred, Demagogue, and etc) in order to survive. As we can see from the day of Pakistani inception, the situation is getting worse day by day. People living in the area are in a stagnant situation. Socioeconomic conditions are getting worse. Pakistan is in a financial free fall and has nothing to survive except terror funding and financing from its Arab masters in Gulf States.

I believe that it is the right time to dissolve Pakistan by encouraging Pashtun and Baluch Nationalism, so National States could emerge. This will provide the world with the opportunity to save tax payers' money, nurture a peaceful coexistence, and make people of the area more responsible for taking care of their own countries. Which will be Afghanistan and India in existence and the name Pakistan to be buried with a tombstone "Pakistan 1947-2015"
Why should the world in this case the West be faithful, caring and responsible for a terrorist Pakistan, if Pakistan itself survives by Terror, outside money, and full of hatred ideology?

In addition, Porkistan is not a National State! Porkistan does not have a national language. Urdu is not a national language of Porkistan. It's official language is English. Urdu is the language of no nation. It is something like Esperanto and only 8% of the 200 million Pakis speak it as their first language. Porkistan does not have a National Identity. Porkistan does not have a National Culture. Porkistan is the greatest Terror hub. Porkistanis like you live by extreme fundamentals developed by Porkistani Zealots.

There is no reason to maintain the status quo of this filthy state created by a vodka drinker and a womanizer Mohammad Ali Jinnah and fantasized by your grandfather who you sold your mothers British Lord Mountbatten.

Without dissolving Pakistan, instability will remain in the area, and the socioeconomic conditions will not improve. With its Fascist Islamic Foundation, Pakistan is a danger to its neighbors, and to the World. Why the world has to pay for maintenance of Pakistan, its ISI Mafia and its ineffective Army?

A country that cannot feed its people but has nukes, and for the sake of world peace, United Nations should issue a resolution to confiscate the terrorists' nukes because the country is incapable of safeguarding them and then impose complete sanctions just as Iran.

Below is the picture your Pakistani pimp Jinnah and Duffy Duck that could give you some remembrance as how well they resemble each other.
 

At Least 23 Die in Pakistani Bombing, Siege

Quetta: From Wall Street Journal —At least 23 people were killed Saturday, including 14 female university students, in twin bomb and gun attacks in the western Pakistani city of Quetta, officials said.


<a href='http://balochwarna.com/features/articles.38/Nawab-Bugti-%E2%80%98Riding-the-camel-with-reins-in-my-hand%E2%80%99-lives-in-our-hearts.html'>Nawab Bugti: ‘Riding the camel with reins in my hand’ lives in our hearts</a>In an afternoon of mayhem, militants bombed a bus carrying students from a university. The dead and injured were taken to a nearby hospital, which was then stormed by gunmen and suicide bombers, who took hostages, leading to a four-hour siege and firefight with security forces, before the authorities took control.

Lashkar-e-Jhangvi, a violent Sunni sectarian organization normally associated with attacks on the minority Shiite sect of Islam, claimed responsibility. The group, influenced by al Qaeda, works closely with the Pakistani Taliban.

A rescue worker and security official collect evidence from a burned bus at the site of a bomb blast in the western Pakistani city of Quetta on Saturday.

Quetta is the violence-plagued provincial capital of Baluchistan. The bus was taking the students home after class. Some locals said that students from the local Hazara community, who are Shiite, often rode that bus. The bus was just leaving the university when an improvised explosive device detonated onboard, said provincial police chief Mushtaq Sukhera.

Just a smoldering metal skeleton was left of the bus, television pictures from the scene showed. A few possessions of the students were found there, including shoes, charred writing pads carrying the student's notes from classes, identity cards and a handbag.

The dead and injured were taken to a hospital that was almost next to the university. There, as relatives and officials gathered, a suicide bomber exploded his vest inside the building, close to paramilitary Frontier Corps guards, said Mr. Sukhera. Then, gunfire started.

"I think it was their trap, that the girls would be shifted to the nearest hospital, and they would attack there," said Mr. Sukhera.

There is a large community of ethnic Hazara in Quetta. They have been the victims of a sustained campaign of violence by Lashkar-e-Jhangvi that claimed hundreds of lives. The Hazara are also a minority in neighboring Afghanistan.

Federal Interior Minister Chaudhry Nisar Ali Khan said that 35 people were taken hostage in one room at the hospital.

"We were preparing for a commando operation to free them, but, by God's grace, that was not necessary," said Mr. Khan.

Officials said that 14 were killed in the bus bombing and 19 injured. At the hospital, a further four nurses, a senior city official and four paramilitary security personnel were killed. Four police officers were injured, one critically. In addition, four assailants were killed at the hospital.

The provincial police chief, Mr. Sukhera, denied that the attack was sectarian. However, that seemed to be contradicted by the claim of responsibility, evidence from eyewitnesses and the views of other officials. Those at the hospital at the time of the assault told local media that the attackers had said that the Sunnis could leave but the Shiites had to remain.

Hasil Bizenjo, a senator and a senior member of the National Party, which is part of the new ruling provincial coalition government in Baluchistan, said the bus hit in the attack had changed its route and had previously taken students to the Hazara enclave in the city.

"Lashkar-e-Jhangvi doesn't claim responsibility for any attack here unless it is an attack on Shiites," said Mr. Bizenjo. The other attacks are usually claimed by the Pakistani Taliban, he said.

Mr. Bizenjo said that such attacks would continue unless there was better intelligence, and for that, work by the military's spy agencies, Inter-Services Intelligence and Military Intelligence, was needed.

"But there still seems to be some confusion, some hurdles" in those intelligence agencies targeting the religious extremists, he said.

Pakistan's military and its intelligence agencies have long been criticized for their relationship with some jihadist groups, including sectarian groups. The military rejects the charges.

Multiple blasts, gunfire kill 23 in Quetta.

The Gashed Shaal.

Opinions :

By Sanjar Baluch
Koh-e-Murdar must have felt agonized today to see Shaal (Quetta) because the Shaal of Baluchistan bled drastically on Saturday morning. The daughters of Baluch land were targeted for no crime on their part. Dressed in white, which drenched to red with their blood, these innocent children of now anguished families could not decipher their crime? Was it getting education? Being born in Baluchistan or anything else that lured their unforeseen death? The grief of families who sent their young daughters in the morning and received back nothing but shards of meat in the evening is beyond comprehension.

Today’s attack is one of the most despicable and appalling acts. The attackers cowardly blew up a student laden university bus and killed many female students but their thirst for blood didn’t satiated here and later on they targeted the injured students and doctors at the emergency ward of Bolan Medical College and kept the injured and doctors as hostages for many hours. No matter how much such acts are condemned is not enough. But this is nothing new in Baluchistan.

The Baluch land has suffered harshly since it lost its territory and sovereignty to foreign invaders and occupiers. The last six decades have remained the worst with each succeeding decade getting cruellest than the preceding and each coming year proving to be more fatal, bloody and barbaric than the previous. But the recent surge in state backed terror infiltration in Baluch land is incomparable. This has started to shake the very social fabric of Baluch society and soon it will overpower many social values, preferences and way of life.

The sectarian Islamic terrorists first surfaced in early 2000 and killed scores of Shiites in different attacks, which also include suicide attacks on Imam Bargahs (Places of worship). But after few arrests their operational activities came to a halt. Meanwhile, the Baluch struggle for liberation of Baluch land gained momentum and it proved to be a headache for Pakistani security establishment. Surprisingly the arrested leaders of Lashkar e Jangavi, who were responsible for sectarian attacks, escaped from a very high security prison located in Quetta contentment. With little effort of assembling jigsaw puzzle, it becomes clear that the escape of these terrorists was a pre-planned strategy to counter Baluch struggle in coming years.

Gradually the Islamists started preparing for their motives but with stealth planning and silent methods. Millions of funds were poured into religious seminaries all over Baluchistan. At least two training camps, one each in suburbs of Mastung and Khuzdar, tinted as Mederrasahs started operating and heaven knows how many bloodthirsty goons graduated from there.

<a href='http://balochwarna.com/features/articles.38/Nawab-Bugti-%E2%80%98Riding-the-camel-with-reins-in-my-hand%E2%80%99-lives-in-our-hearts.html'>Nawab Bugti: ‘Riding the camel with reins in my hand’ lives in our hearts</a>The yield of these strategies was used in two different methods but the target was common – to counter the Baluch struggle. The likes of Shafeeq Mengal, who also heads Lashkar e Tayyaba, on the behest and support of Pakistani agencies, were groomed to target and prosecute Baluch activists. Whereas, Lashkar-e-Jangvi, which now has many Baluch foot soldiers, was ordered to ignite sectarian violence in the province to paint Baluch struggle as total opposite of what it really is. The secular struggle of Baluch nation is tirelessly and extensively being wrongly branded as a nexus between fundamentalist LeJ and secular Baluch fighters. The fact of Baluch being the members of LeJ is supporting them considerably.

Parallel with Baluch Mussala Diffa Tanzeem, the activities of LeJ are getting more powerful and more lethal. First they only targeted Shiites but now their field of activities have broaden up to an extent that they are viciously targeting civilians regardless of gender, caste and creed. Attacks on female is considered a very low act in Baluch society but these terrorists have been so dangerously brainwashed that they do not wobble in going to any extent.

The silence of Baluch elders on these dangerous developments is ironical. Apart from few lone statements there has been no any practical effort to counter this quagmire. Either there is some miscalculation or sheer apathy on part of Baluch political elders, in either of the cases it will prove very perilous for the Baluch struggle.

The blood of daughters spilled today in Shaal is demanding Baluch political brains to sit together to devise ways to defeat the dangerous plots of enemy as the LeJ, BMDT and the likes are getting powerful and stronger with each coming day.
