US House passes amendment tying human rights with aid to Pakistan

US House passes amendment tying human rights with aid to Pakistan

  

The US House of Representative passed an amendment linking the American military aid with the human rights in Pakistan, in particular those of religious and ethnic minorities.

The amendment moved by Congressman Dana Rohrabacher on Friday requires the US defence secretary 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.

However, passage of such an amendment under the National Defence Authorization Act 2014, though hailed by Rohrabacher as a giant step forward, is unlikely to have much impact on US military aid to Pakistan, given that in the past that both the Pentagon and the State Department have been quick in issuing similar certifications.

"This is a giant step forward for those victims of oppression in Pakistan," said Rohrabacher who moved the amendment with bipartisan co-sponsorship of Congressman Brad Sherman.

Rohrabacher is chairman of the House Foreign Affairs Subcommittee on Europe, Eurasia, and Emerging Threats.

"For the first time their plight is being recognised 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," Rohrabacher said.

The US has given over $25 billion of aid to Pakistan since 2001 and this year's National Defence Authorization Act authorised up to an additional $1.5 billion.

“The killings and the promises ”

The media and the judiciary keep concentrating on non-issues but turn a blind eye to brutalities and human rights violations by state-run agencies.

Prime Minister Gilani, on his recent visit to Quetta, asked the militants to shun violence and urged them to choose the path of peace. He was addressing the passing out parade of the recruits of Pakistan Army in Balochistan.

It seems that Mr Gilani was unaware of what his men in uniform and plain clothes were doing in Khuzdar, Gwadar and other parts of Balochistan while he was enjoying dry-fruits in the garrison city of Quetta on his short visit. In a very short span of three days, nine mutilated bodies of Baloch missing persons were found from different parts of Balochistan.

The first two victims of the brutal ‘kill and dump’ policy were Irfat Baloch and Kareem Jan Baloch. Irfat, a teenage boy, was a student of Turbat Degree College. He was abducted along with two other friends on September 23, 2011 from Pasni Cross. Their vehicle was intercepted when they were on their way to Quetta for a study tour. Kareem Jan Baloch, a political and social activist, went missing on August 8, 2011 from Tump, district Kech. He was detained illegally for 58 days before his brutally tortured body was found along with Irfat Baloch.

The whole of Balochistan mourned — strikes were observed throughout the province but the worst had yet to come. On October 9, the Baloch nation witnessed one of its most terrible days when the bullet-riddled bodies of 11-year-old Abdul Wahid Baloch (who was also called Balaach) and Ghulam Ullah Baloch, General Secretary of Baloch Watan Movement, were found from Baghbana, Khuzdar.

The young Balaach gained popularity when a picture of him wearing a Balochistan flag was posted on social websites a year ago. The shirt he was wearing read: ‘Jiye Azad Balochistan’. This picture went viral on social networking websites where it remained the display picture of many people for several days. But no one actually knew that this picture and Balaach’s participation in protests would actually turn out to be the reason for his brutal death. Balaach was abducted on August 8, 2011 from Khuzdar in the presence of several eyewitnesses. Personnel wearing plain clothes in several vehicles abducted him at gunpoint from a busy market in broad daylight. His tiny body had to bear inhumane torture for 62 days before a bullet in his brain ended his sufferings in October. 

The levies found two other bodies from Kulanch, Gwadar on the same day. The deceased were identified as Sameer Rind and Abdul Mutalib Baloch. Sameer Jan Rind was abducted from Turbat during a house raid on October 14, 2010. The 24-year-old student was detained illegally exactly for one year. Sameer Jan’s sister struggled hard for the recovery of her brother. From TV shows to the judiciary, she knocked at every door but she could only get the tortured remains of her young brother. But that was not the end of the Baloch ordeal; some more sisters had to cry, some more mothers had to mourn. The bloody carnage continued unabated, this time for the families of Rashid Ali, Shafi Mohammad and Mirza Rind. Rashid Ali was the vice president of Baloch National Movement Mashkey zone whereas Shafi Mohammad and Mirza Rind were political activists belonging to Kalat and Hub respectively. At least four other political activists, mostly students, were also abducted two weeks ago.

This is not the first time that the powerful Pakistani establishment has introduced its kill and dump policy; the Baloch nation has witnessed many such episodes. They have been under ongoing assault since 2001, when the fifth military operation in the mineral-rich province started but it accelerated in mid-2010 when the bodies of missing Baloch persons started appearing. According to the International Voice for Baloch Missing Persons, an organisation mainly comprising family members of the missing Baloch, more than 13,000 Baloch political activists, students, doctors, journalists and social activists are missing. This figure includes more than 200 women and children.

In these conditions, with such hypocrisy and with such an extent of brutality, the invitation for peaceful talks and non-violence remains meaningless. Though the prime minister renewed his earlier pledge and said, “We are ready to go to the doorsteps of angry Baloch leaders to resolve issues through table talks,” which Baloch leader will actually shake hands with a person whose men are killing non-violent political activists on a daily basis? Prime Minister Gilani had earlier assured that the missing persons will start returning home soon. He did fulfil his promise and disappeared persons started appearing, unfortunately, as mutilated and tortured bullet-riddled bodies. More than 300 missing persons have been killed in detention since then.

But the oppressors must never forget that Balochistan has never been a piece of cake for occupiers and intruders. Through brutality and murder, they can earn the anger and never-ending bitterness of the Baloch but not their sympathies.

On the other hand, the criminal silence of the media, judiciary, human rights organisations and so-called Baloch nationalist leaders is beyond comprehension. The media and the judiciary keep concentrating on non-issues but turn a blind eye to brutalities and human rights violations by state-run agencies. The most shocking aspect of all this is the confusion amongst Baloch nationalist leaders. While the leaders remain confused, the killers and bloodthirsty vampires are not. These leaders should not forget that they are in fact Baloch and they are answerable to the Baloch nation for their criminal role. Instead of giving statements on non-issues, these leaders should understand their responsibilities and try to guide the public on countering these inhumane killings. No doubt this is not possible without unity but unity should not be at the expense of ideologies and rights.

“The Weeping Queen Balochistan”

“The Weeping Queen Balochistan”

  “Each generation must discover its mission, fulfill it or betray it, in relative opacity”

A growing fear of cultural, economic and political domination has prompted an extensive discussion among Baloch nationalists in Pakistan for formulating a viable and feasible strategy for countering the ever-dominating maneuvers of the state. The discussion regarding participation in the legal and constitutional bodies of the state is a hot topic of discussion especially among youth and students. Baloch political elite are also conscious of far-reaching repercussions of recent political and strategic changes in the world polity in general and the region in particular.

The current situation pertaining to general elections 2013 is taking new turn in Balochistan after the Baloch National Front (BNF) and baloch guerilla forces had announced complete boycott from upcoming elections by baloch nation and they announced that anyone who is supporting any kind of election campaign will be targeted this announcement raise a series of discussion among baloch political cadre who want to participate in upcoming election and it was an alarm for Pakistani security establishment that how to handle the situation.

The baloch pseudo-nationalist in form of BNP,NP,BNP(awami)and other political parties become the concern of establishment to prepare them to participate in election to show the world that baloch nationalist are part of Pakistani parliament and akhter mengal seems to be the favorite toy for establishment to play with him this time and the remote of this toy is easy to control.Recently attack on sanaullah zehris election compaign and killg of his son and other four family member is also highlighted by electronic ,print and social media.

As a matter of fact that all sardars,nawabs and common baloch are well aware of the current political and social situation of their nation by long series of sacrifices by baloch peoples to protect the motherland .Now if someone is intentionally and consciously for gaining of some economic and social benefits from Pakistan is working against baloch nation and supporting the enemy by target killing of baloch political activist and providing information or establishing network for providing information about baloch guerilla activities and harassing their supporter, arresting them through state agencies and after some time dumping their tortured dead bodies

on roadsides and streets is this is not a crime or these dead bodies on road sides are not baloch sons? Yes sure they are the real son of soil as a famous saying.

“For a colonized people the most essential value, because the most concrete, is first and foremost the land: the land which will bring them bread and, above all, dignity.”

The recent press conference by hasil bezajo belong from national party has said that some powers are making environment for an internal war in baloch nation dear hasil khan now the time has gone that these type of threats will work, because the attacks on national party election candidate and attack on Dr.malik put you under pressure that the next target may be you feel that you are the next one so there is still time for these psudo-nationalist that the will not try to be part of Pakistan for some personal gains, because history says that the role of double standard politics has bad repercussion as like son of sardar sanaullah zehri now if lets assume that he became the next prime minister of Pakistan can he bring a son like sikender zehri no never ever he may can raise his bank balance , some more bodyguards and property.I don’t know in this civilized world in 21st century the peoples even not cut the fresh flower’s they say that they are beautiful let them grow for tomorrow and here our political class is sacrificing their future flowers for just gaining of personal interest and working against nation if still you will not change your thinking then many sikanders will die as a universal fact that.

“We shall support whatever the enemy opposes and oppose whatever the enemy supports.”

Balochistan being a rich land owning great strategic importance in region different powers want influence and hegemony on it. But it understood that no one can stay here without consent of Baloch. Political parties those who are paying sacrifices and loyal with motherland instead of enjoying life are genuine representatives of Baloch Nation. Their blood proved honesty, sincerity with Baloch and Baloch land.
