Imran Khan Now Wants to Talk to Baloch Separatists who are Being "Used by India"

I'll quote here, what I've said on another thread:
Like moeed pirzada said, Pakistan major issue isn’t just foreign world order, rather people joining workforce, i.e Defense, intelligence, bureaucracy from a failed education system. People in govt offices do not know what to do.

Hence the need to give them something to do, but alas I fear we're too late in realising our short comings and acting upon them.

Imran Khan. Clueless as always about terrorism
Bramdagh and others no they should not be granted any asylum. But foot soldiers if they surrender then they should be welcomed. But big wigs like Bramdagh no way in hell.

The goal is to stop the violence and save lives. If talking will move us closer to that, then why not.

This tough talking that we should never talk to insurgents is immature, devoid of foresight, and lacking in wisdom.

History is filled with instances where talking to insurgents does make a difference. Recent examples include the IRA (Ireland), FARC (Colombia), and ETA (Basque/Spain), among many others.

Nobody is against talking

Talk but talk from position of strength

The recent attitude of Pakistani state in Balochistan has shown weakness and such offers of talks is only going to embolden terrorists

Beat BLA militarily and then talk. We all would appreciate it

A diplomatic solution is better than a long guerilla and counter terrorism campaign where more of our soldiers die. India wants the insurgency to continue. Anything that stops it is a victory for us and a defeat for them

That’s their goal. Become a nuance big enough for govt to make such mistakes. Giving them some sort of recognition and legitimacy. If few rat are force a nation to negotiating table, that’s a defeat in itself. Hit them hard and talk behind the scene.

To everyone claiming that this is a stupid step I would say think about it again do they really want to talk to the insurgents?

We saw many peace negotiations with TTP but they were all front for the backend planning for bigger op.

They are just buying time to plan out the ops.
More importantly if I am a BLA terrorist then why would I want to talk? I am killing enemy in big numbers. There is no real action against me. I also have support from big external powers and even internal powers like our leftists. I am winning the war or at least that is the impression I am getting

Then why the f*ck I would like to talk to Imran Khan??? I would only talk to Imran Khan if I feel that I am on backfoot and need some respite

These statements of talks backed by no action on ground would only embolden me
They are being smashed left and right in them caves last I heard. I am pretty sure they will be happy to save their lives.

There will be a time for talking but till then the state needs to show that fighting is infutile. Recently it looks like the insurgents have the upper hand.

Once the hammer is used then we could extend the velvet glove.

However, this time instead of reaching out to the like of Baramdagh Bugti or Marri, we should try to bring in Dr. Allah Nazar. If he surrenders, that will finish the insurgency once and for all.

I wouldn’t worry about it too much. I have followed IK 22+ years.. he tends to have idealistic almost naive stance initially but then when hard facts are shown or experienced by him he changes with a vengeance with no turning back.

Take example when coming to power he gave india a olive branch ..india being india behaved predictably.. since then he has been the only Pakistani leader in recent memory that has humiliated india on a global scale such as on 27 feb and his UN speech exposing India’s true face.

The main difference is...

Majority of kashmir is against you whereas a majority of balochistan is with us.

You kill civvies in kashmir

We don't kill civvies in balochistan
That is the narrative you are being fed.

People in Jammu or Ladakh or even Kargil don't give a damn f**about independence or anything. The issue is restricted to just south Kashmir region...

If majority of Baloch are with you, than how come there is an insurgency for last 70 years?
 
.
Its so amazing that Pakistanis have such clarity of thought when it comes Baluchistan. This is the same clarity that India has on Kashmir

Just replace the word Baluchistan with Kashmir in the comments and you will be surprised to find how similarly we think...

kashmir is a UN designated dispute ..Baluchistan big difference, thousands of Kashmir’s fled india repression nothing like this exist in Baluchistan
