#10  So, the next generation of the Marri and Bugti clans, the future Nawabs are alive (and obligated to extract revenge).

#9  QUETTA, Aug 27: Nawabzada Baramdagh Bugti and Nawabzada Aali Bugti grandsons of Nawab Akbar Khan Bugti, are alive and safe.

A spokesman for Anjuman Ittehad Marri said here on Sunday that both the grandsons of Nawab Bugti were alive as they had left the area when it was under heavy attack.

Nawabzada Balaach Khan Marri, son of Nawab Khair Bakhsh Marri, was also alive, he said.

#7  That might have the benefit of clearing the air. Though I'd prefer we finish with Iran first.

#6  Perv is probably screening the men around him for Balochi sympathies.

An "accident" like that which befell General Zia Ul Haq may be on the cards.

What are the nukes for?

#3  Editorial in the Daily Times

BugtiÂ’s killing is the biggest blunder since BhuttoÂ’s execution

But Balochistan is not a place for mass demonstrations; it is a territory of acts of revenge. How will the government tackle the Baloch backlash?

#2  Editorial in the Pakistani Daily Times



With his grandsons dead, the title of Nawab may pass onto another branch of the family.

#1  Article: Contacts told Asia Times Online they expected that very soon the Taliban would announce the revival of the "Islamic Emirates of Afghanistan" in that country's southwest, from where a countrywide offensive will be staged.

For Washington, this would mean a total failure in Afghanistan - and Pakistan in large part would be held to blame. This is because the US has based much of its strategy on information fed to it by the Pakistani establishment.


Shahzad has been predicting failure since the first CIA folks were inserted into Afghanistan in fall 2001. He's starting to sound like a broken clock.
