Wanted soldiers to wage Information warfare.
FRIDAY, SEPTEMBER 16, 2005

Our brave Balochi nationalists are relentlessly fighting for freedom on the ground , leaving all mundane pleasures , sacrificing every
everything , shedding their blood . We all salute them and shed tears for their martyrdom . They are doing their job in the mother land , but the
question is whether Diaspora is doing their job sincerely in educating the people around the world about the struggle , oppression of
pakistan .
We have number of discussion groups , individuals chat on latest developments in Balochistan , yelling at each other with
views/opinions/comments etc , all in a closely guarded secret discussions . I would say this is no different to romantic chat , where outside
world don’t know what happens inside .
In politics though information exchange and sharing ideas is necessary among group ( secret forums) , it will be useless if we cannot
transform the decisions or opinions into actions if we don’t broadcasting to the world community . On the other hand imagine , government
machinery armed with all PR tools influencing the public opinion , a childs game for them . All I wish to ask our so called “intellectuals ,
leaders “ of baloch community is a simple question. Do we have a strategy , time frame , milestones in place to achieve Republic of
Balochistan ? . Or are we just been gravitated towards Pakistani strategy , which eventually will lead to hell . If we are in their set strategy then
forget about the dreams of freedom and sing the tunes of Pakistan .
This is a game , where we have to always ensure that our opponent must be on defensive constantly , on both fronts diplomatic and military .
The later can be achieved by complete domination on the streets , suffocating the Frontier corps and breaking their will . Our Balochi
nationalists are successful to some extent in achieving this . However we have failed miserably on PR front , except few websites (which
doesn’t make impact to the world citizenry) . The world listens , when one speak soft and hold a big stick, if you don’t speak you are either
ignored or called insane . This phenomenon holds true to balochis , they are poor in public relations in the western capitals . Nevertheless
this can be improved by learning from others , viz., Kurdish , Kashmiri , Tamil groups , the way they deal with media , they way they educate
the public and leaders of the west . I heard from one balochi brother that "We go to UN every year and make presentations " , that's good , and
I asked what he is doing , he questioned , " What should I do ?" . The need of the hour is to train our guys .
There is a need for PR machinery in place, in almost all western capitals to deal with the forthcoming events in balochistan . We have to
equip our organs around the world with the right tools to win the Information warfare, in order to win the freedom . I would suggest the young
generation to take a break and think our struggle as a Game , and play it safe to win the game ,instead of emotions taking control of you . We
need soldiers for Information warfare , not just forum chatters , we have to relay our message to outside world which is vital for our success .
1. Raise the level of awareness in all discussion forums by joining them and posting the news items on balochistan .
2. Compile daily news nuggets on Balochistan affairs and circulate , example Baloch Unity moderator compiles daily , but if that is neatly
formatted and forwarded to NON BALOCHI groups ( say baloch friendly groups) , that will be of great help.
3. Prepare a mailing list of all Think tanks of west , individuals , journalists , influencers and TARGET them with (2)
4. Organize seminars in US and EU as frequently as possible and invite leaders.
5. BE A DIPLOMAT : Finally , each balochi living abroad has to conduct themselves as a DIPLOMAT . The have to give his or her time to the
cause by networking and educating balochi cause . For that they should be armed with necessary information .
6. Prepare Talking points : It would be advisable to prepare talking points and FAQ’s for all balochis .
7. Identify yourself as Baloch : Never allow others to call you as a pakistani, this is the starting point to get recognition
8. Republic of Balochistan : Tell to the prople, that world map is going to change soon , there going to be one country called "Republic of
Balochistan ".
