*BALOCHISTAN: A NATION UNDER OCCUPATION* https://x.com/BNMovement_/status/1894388885980848632 - This pamphlet was distributed in the United States by the Baloch National Movement (BNM). Download : https://t.me/bnmovement/5945 *THE COLONIAL WOUND THAT NEVER HEALED* The colonial era redrew the world map with blood-soaked borders—while some nations gained independence, others, like Balochistan, were forcefully enslaved. In 1947, India was partitioned based on a false ideology, leading to the creation of Pakistan. Shortly after, on March 27, 1948, Pakistan launched a military invasion of Balochistan, a sovereign nation, and occupied it by force. *A 77-YEAR STRUGGLE AGAINST GENOCIDE* From day one, the Baloch rejected this illegal occupation and resisted. For the past 77 years, Pakistan has waged a brutal campaign to crush this resistance, seize Baloch land, and exploit its vast natural resources. *GENOCIDE IN PROGRESS* · Systematic efforts to erase Baloch identity and culture. · Weaponization of basic human necessities like education, healthcare, and employment to suppress the people. · Assassination of political activists, students, and intellectuals. One of the most heinous examples is the targeted killing of Ghulam Mohammad Baloch, President of the Baloch National Movement (BNM). On April 3, 2009, a Pakistani court acquitted him of all charges, yet, moments after his release, he and his companions Lala Munir and Sher Mohammad were abducted by the Pakistan Army. Days later, their mutilated bodies were found dumped. At the time of his abduction, Ghulam Mohammad Baloch was working for the release of John Solecki, an American UN official kidnapped in Balochistan. *THE ‘KILL AND DUMP’ POLICY* Since 2009, Pakistan has intensified its policy of enforced disappearances and extrajudicial killings under what it calls Operation Silence. Thousands of Baloch have been forcibly disappeared, never to be seen again. February 2025 alone:Over 65 enforced disappearances and 3 extrajudicial killings were documented by BNM’s human rights organization, Paank https://x.com/paank_bnm . · The Pakistan Army deliberately targets unarmed civilians, silencing all forms of resistance. *AMERICAN TAXPAYERS ARE FUNDING THIS GENOCIDE* The United States has provided Pakistan with billions of dollars in aid—funded by American taxpayers. These funds have enabled Pakistan’s military to continue its occupation and systematic genocide against the Baloch nation. *WE URGE YOU TO TAKE A STAND!* · Demand an IMMEDIATE END to all U.S. financial and military aid to Pakistan. · Speak out against Pakistan’s crimes against humanity. · Support the Baloch nation’s right to self-determination. *A FREE BALOCHISTAN = A STABLE REGION* Balochistan was once an independent nation. For true peace and stability in South Asia, Balochistan’s sovereignty must be restored. By standing with the Baloch, you are standing for justice, truth, and the fundamental rights of a nation under siege. *Raise your voice. Demand justice.* *BALOCH NATIONAL MOVEMENT (BNM)* #balochistancrisis
