Pakistan's Terrorism Problem Backfires
Recent attacks by Baloch insurgents in Pakistan expose the country's vulnerability to terrorism and its military's unpreparedness. Major General Bakshi (Retd) criticizes Pakistan's use of terrorism as state policy, stating, "They've shot themselves in the foot."
He highlights the recent attack on an FC convoy and the Jaffar Express hijacking as evidence of this vulnerability. He emphasizes that this is Pakistan's own doing and that foreign countries cannot intervene.
Major General Katoch (Retd) questions the military's preparedness, suggesting they lack the capability to defend their territory. He recommends a political settlement with the Baloch people to prevent further escalation.
Foreign affairs expert Sachdeva accuses Pakistan of exploiting Balochistan's resources while neglecting its development, predicting the conflict will worsen.
The recent attack on an FC convoy left five dead, including three FC personnel and two civilians. The BLA claimed responsibility. This follows the Jaffar Express hijacking, where the BLA claimed to have killed 214 hostages.

Finally, someone is speaking out about Pakistan's use of terrorism as state policy. This needs to stop.

A political settlement is the only way to resolve this conflict. The Baloch people deserve to have their voices heard.

I'm glad that the international community is starting to pay attention to what is happening in Balochistan. This is a serious issue that needs to be addressed.

This is a fight for human rights. Everyone has the right to live free from fear and oppression.

It's encouraging to see that the Pakistani military is finally taking some responsibility for their lack of preparedness.

We need to continue to raise awareness about this issue until the Pakistani government takes action to stop the violence.

The BLA is a terrorist organization and should be condemned by all. There is no justification for their violence.

Together, we can make a difference. Let's raise our voices and demand justice for the Baloch people.

I urge everyone to contact their elected officials and demand they take action against Pakistan's state-sponsored terrorism.

This is just another example of Pakistan reaping what it sows. They've been using terrorism as a tool for years, and now it's coming back to bite them.
