Chairman of the Baloch National Movement, Dr. Naseem Baloch, stated that the Pakistani state and its forces are writing a new chapter of brutality in Balochistan. Under the horrific military strategy of collective punishment, the detention of innocent people, enforced disappearances, extrajudicial killings, brutal torture of peaceful protesters, and the humiliation of women have become the norm. The firing, baton charge, and tear gas shelling on the protest against the kidnapping of Zaheer Baloch exemplify open state terrorism.
Dr. Naseem Baloch emphasized that Pakistan’s fascism and brutality reveal that “Baloch are treated as slaves, and Pakistan, like any uncivilized colonial power, believes only in the use of guns and military force to crush movements, protests, and cries of the oppressed.” However, historical facts have repeatedly proven that no power in the world has been able to defeat a movement based on truth. The Baloch are moving forward with historical truth, an understanding of their strength, and a determination for the future, evidenced by their sacrifices.
Dr. Naseem Baloch noted that Pakistan neither studies history nor tries to learn from it. It dared to declare itself a divine creation with a divine purpose, yet this so-called Islamic fortress could not survive twenty-five years and fell into disrepair. The two-nation theory was buried there, but Pakistan did not learn any lesson from this historical end.
He highlighted that the Pakistani state has inflicted brutal atrocities on Baloch protesters, especially women, trampling human values underfoot. The violence against Baloch mothers, sisters, and elders has become part of the Baloch national memory, which shapes national character and history. Deprived of history, Pakistan is unaware of the importance of history and national memory. The world bears witness that while the Baloch may forgive a bloody enemy, the humiliation of women and the betrayal by national traitors are unforgivable, with fixed punishments.
Dr. Naseem Baloch stated that Baloch women have become symbols of determination and resilience. Our mothers and sisters have set examples of courage and bravery in the face of brutality, earning the respect of not only the Baloch nation and this region but also civilized people worldwide. Today, the extraordinary struggle of Baloch women is globally respected. In contrast, Pakistan is a beggar state that can blackmail the world for a few more years with its extremist jihadi army and nuclear weapons, but the fate of Pakistan has been sealed by the Baloch National Liberation Movement based on historical authenticity, making it impossible to change.
