Washington DC, April 6, 2011: “Taliban, Taliban, Pakistan, Pakistan” slogans were raised at a rally organized by the pro-independence American Friends of Balochistan in the US capital on Sunday afternoon. The rally was organized by the Baloch organization, one of the largest with more than 1000 members on the Facebook to celebrate the victory of India over Pakistan in world cup cricket. "We are Happy India Won" was one of the slogans raised at the Baloch rally. “We are here to celebrate India's victory over Pakistan as people in Balochistan say they are not Pakistanis and Pakistan is the international headquarters of al Qaeda. We do not share Pakistan's idea that Hindus, Jews or Christians are our enemies as the Baloch are a secular people,” Ahmar Mustikhan, founder of the American friends of Balochistan said on the occasion. He said Pakistan was behind every conceivable terrorist act anywhere in the world and said even the militancy inside Afghanistan over the Quran burning was a machination of the Pakistani Inter-Services Intelligence. Mustikhan drew the attention of the US public to the killing of a Baloch refugee Dur Khan Bugti in Spin Boldak on March 25 by a Taliban suicide bomber. “Imagine if the I.S.I. is not willing to spare a Baloch inside, what kinds of deadly conspiracies they may be hatching for the rest of Afghanistan and the world.” Mustikhan is of the opinion that Baloch, Afghans and Indians have long suffered at the hands of Pakistan military and its allied intelligence services, and now the Pakistan army and I.S.I. was at odds with the goal of the International Security Assistance Force. “We are American Baloch and trace our roots to Balochistan, a Texas-sized country in southwest Asia. Balochistan means land of the Baloch, many of who still lead a nomadic life. “It was a free country before the British set foot and took over our sovereignty. By the time they left in August 1947, they left us divided in three countries: Pakistan, Iran and Afghanistan. The overall Baloch population is estimated at more than 15 million people. The area under Pakistani military is the size of New Mexico, the area under Iranian mullahs is the size of Nevada. Balochistan was occupied by Pakistan at gunpoint on March 27, 1948. Today we are facing a Trail of Blood and Tears that Native Americans faced in the USA and we appeal you to rescue our people. Almost every day Pakistan paramilitary Frontier Corps, Military Intelligence and infamous Inter Services Intelligence extra-judicially kill Baloch activists and throw their bodies. As many as 130 people have been killed this way. The victims include journalists, lawyers, singers and students and the killings were part of the Pakistani security establishment to strengthen the hands of the Taliban, which is the B team of the Pakistan army. In fact the Pakistan army soldiers are the best Taliban as they are Taliban in uniform. Mustikhan urged the US government to immediately stop US aid to Pakistan for its crimes against humanity in Balochistan. “This aid to Pakistan violates existing U.S. laws. Pakistan also supports al Qaeda and that is the main reason bin Laden has not been brought to justice.” Mustikhan also paid tributes to Ghulam Mohammed Baloch, Lala Munir Baloch and Sher Mohammed Baloch who were abducted from their lawyers office two years ago, tortured and killed extra judicially by Pakistani Frontier security and intelligence services. The three leaders were instrumental in getting UN High Commissioner for Refugees in Quetta, John Solecki freed from the clutches of his kidnappers. They were killed by the Military Intelligenced and ISI to provoke the Baloch militants to get rid of Solecki as he was still in their captivity. The rally was held the statute of the Mohandas K. Gandhi in Washington DC. Mustikhan also urged India to play its role as the world's largest democracy to stop the genocide in Balochistan.
