Even if nawab bugti was like a typical sardar, keeping his people backward etc...he should'nt have been killed. If i am correct the baloch insurgency started after his murder...
I agree with you
I would also say even Molana Abdul Rashid of Lal Masjid shouldnt have been killed
And neither Osama Bin Laden , they should have got proper trial. killing a violent opponent is a last resort and must be avoided.
I actually liked that guy a lot despite his savage nature and his dealing with fellow Bughtis and others. He was a stabilising force as well (compared to rest of the unpredictable lot) . he knew the score and only went as far he could stretch it, get the concessions and favours form “himself” and go dormant.
But last time he decided to up the game and hoping that the government will cave in as in the past but that didn’t happen because Muisharraf called his bluff.
I hope that people who are commenting here with the safety of their homes can spare the thought for the families that come under regular rocket attacks from the militants.
I have the example of my first cousin who’s wife and 3 year old kid had to live under the constant fear of mortar and rocket attacks while they were living in Sui. and one day such projectile landed in their backyard causing the walls to collapse and all windows shattered. They were in a trench at that time and had it landed on the roof top they would have died for sure.
Before his death, BLA was conducting over 200 to 300 rocket and mortar attacks on installations, infrastructure and civilian residences. Trust me, no one shed a single tear who had been a direct or indirect victim of BLA’s terror campaign.
Indians who are calling Musharraf an animal and sympathising and supporting the Talal’s Bughti call to get him killed should realise that they are in fact also condemning their own leaders to death who ordered the military operations against different insurgencies in India. Why different standards?
How would these Indians feel if today Hafiz Saeed announces a 50 Million bounty on Manmohan or some former Indian prime minister?
If that’s wrong then this is wrong too.
Musharraf has done to Bughti what Obama has done to Osama. As heads of state they responded to the threat. The method and resulting fall out is debatable but not the action. Any head of State worth his salt should respond with force to violent elements who don’t understand the peaceful means to resolve the issues and remain hostile and because danger to the state and its security.
