Scenes are swiftly varying and revealing the certainty behind the mist and pointing towards a spiteful American out break in South Asia, Apart of Afghanistan US mainly accomplishing it through proxies, proxies and wars US has supported over the years are numerous and their brunt on the beleaguered entities are awfully disturbing, one still remembers photographs from Vietnam episode when a young girl was trying to run towards safety, her cloths were completely burnt by fire and her skin was burning after USAF had completed a “napalming” mission over a village, I could’ve given more repugnant example of US brutality in wars from more recent “deazy cutting” memories of Afghanistan or “gassing” scenes of reported republican guards in Iraq, but probably that wouldn’t be regard something as “eternal” on the peace loving minds of west, because of the fact that International standards (both of local NGOs and western media) of anti war sentiments just won’t consider people of Iraq and Afghanistan evenly as the poor Vietnami girl who later was presented as an anti war symbol similarly by the pro communist propaganda machinery of Soviets, eastern Europe and the green peace element of the west, war brutalities has increased with the advancement in modern armaments and technology and intentions of more harassing agenda, but every buddy seems to have a certain criteria for projecting the fuss about creating an image of the particular victim of an particular hit. I was trying to explore and learn the motives behind the context of a recent terrorist attack in Iran when terrorist group Jundullah hit Iran with a suicide bomber, close to the border with Pakistan, which reveals further inroads to understand American plan and the way they fancying it to implement by putting together all the pieces of the puzzle and by leveling the appropriate ground for it, but deep “gratitude” for American policies haul that pretext into discussion. Americans usually are found of financing and impelling every “liberation” force which normally at a quick glance itself appears as minority among those who are some times rightly but most of the times wrongly labeled as suppressed and marginalized ethnic or religious groups of the country.
Canvas of the attack on Pasdaran-e-inqalab is far more complex then it looks at a fleeting stair of an eye, it becomes even more multifaceted in the context of the situational parameters like Iranian elections, reemergence of Ahmedi Nizad as Iran’s President, election riots and country wide protests which were overwhelmingly reported and painted by western media (it is also interesting to note the objectives behind the startling election campaign for Mosvi ran by the international media, if one analyze the way they were comparing Nizad wih Mosvi and the amount of stress they were seemingly forcing on highlighting the “positives” Mosvi is capable to deliver for people of Iran , he will agree with me that westren media was running Mosvi’s election campaign, and off course afterwords his protest, reportedly election riots were American sponsored), and amount of apprehension US shown over Iran’s growing military and strategic importance in the region, vital part of the whole incident for us was the Iranian resentment towards Pakistan, president Nizad angrily pointed his fingers and at once declared the attacks being conducted and Supervised from Pakistani soil, he even went one step forward and made an accusation of the involvement of Pakistani security agencies, may be it is obvious that Mr Nizad ihas theoretically fallen in to the trap which Americans planned for him, or did he?
Jundullah has accepted the responsibility of the attack, same organization had launched systematic attacks on Pakistani soil against Pakistani security personals and a very renowned one on Rtd Gen Mushurruf took real attention and caused crack down against the organization in Pakistan, Jundullah which was operating in Pakistan was more an anti American force and was rightly consider as Pakistani wing of Al-Qaida, but what it has committed off late is different and even more dangerous, Junduallah operating in Iran is some thing else some thing more mystic, Before further elaborating Iranian offended Jundullah its worth looking into the actual milieu of the whole scenario to get a better understanding of the subject rather then analyzing this terrorist attack as as an isolated event. It was a set-up, a scheme, which was planned up to take the gravity of the apparent Iranian phobia in the minds of US tax payers to a new level of exhilaration, US had reallocated and redefined this strategy back in may 2007 under the neu-con administration which had an manifest appealing of creating wars, specially their apprehension towards Iran and will to impose a military solution of the matter, Iranian nuclear program is also a major reason, in pursue of plunging into this irrational approach they approved to launch secret black operations to achieve regime change in Iran. As reported by London telegraph, under the plan, pressure was to be excreted on Iran by targeting Iranian economy through manipulating the country’s currency and international financial transactions, agitation was to be created among the common mass and Iranian nationals living in America were to be used as the “two way communications channels” for which CIA was responsible to provide “technical” assistance, financing and broadcasting Jundullah as the muscle arm was part of the plan.
Jundullah is generally regarded as the derivative, an offshoot of Al-Qaida which it self in some circles is considered as a havoc created by Americans themselves, but the harsh verity is that Jundullah is a confirmed American brand, al-Qaida was more used as an umbrella, a trade mark under which various small groups of world anti American and pan Islamic resistance gathered and operated, beside discussing the origin of al-Qaida, there is also strong a presumption that few elements of angry elements from Abu Zarqavi group of Al-qaida which were active in Iraq few summers back have joined or sneaked in to Jundillah, one has to remember that Abu Zarqavi group was not only against US forces in Iraq but they were allegedly responsible for various terrorist activities against shias in Iraq, Iran has covertly played his part in elimination of Abu zarqavi and his organization, then later various intelligence reports came out about the fact that afterward those anti shia elements were adopted by US and intermingle with Jundullah to play a role of local hocks in south Asia specially in context of Iran-Iraq and Pak-iran relations. Terrorist Attack by jundullah targeted headquarter of revolutionary guards in Pishin, near the border with Pakistan around which Jundullah is elegantly operating form bases near Iranian Seastan and Baluchistan with the help of strong American support, they’ve able to make several dents in to national interests of Iran, American Presence in Baluchistan is not some thing new, geographically Baluchistan is ultimate base for for such ghost wars and covert activities. Americans have luxury of large abandon mountain ranges, dumped and uninhabited sea coasts, road links with major city like Karachi, strong allies in form of BLA, RAW and in some extent quite possibly a revived face of late KHAD i.e. RAMA (research and Analysis Milli Afghanistan), In existence of all these features its quite straightforward to calculate and estimate US involvement in the incident, Pakistani government is quite vocal about Indian intrusion in Baluchistan but on the critical matter of American intents and aggression in the area, one found them at complete utter silent, even supporting BLA without American node of the head is not possible for Indians, Americans are using these deserts areas as focal point of their operations, a buffer Afghanistan is just a mere corridor which NATO is trying to secure, what US need to transport Caspian reserves is a port, now one can use flight of his imagination about which port I am talking about.
Motives behind that attack? well after reviewing all above its quite easy to speculate possibilities of the answers, Iran is visible threat not only to American interests but also for Israel, so both are running their proxies through Jundullah and various other groups, mainly Sunni, task is to harm Iranians through hijacking the sectarian issue and use this specific element to flourish the Iraqi model, its relative to note that apart of Jundullah, Mujahidin-e-Khalq is another major anti Iranian element supported and bloomed by US and Israel to nurse their interests and serve against Iran on military level while IAE and UN to exert the political pressure, few convicted members of the these groups have admitted their connections with the US in Iranian courts. By using Pakistani soil in these attacks US is trying to hit two birds with one stone. Pak Iran relations off late are driven by such events, Iran’s growing relations with India and diplomatic coldness towards Pakistan has made lot of people concerned, one aspect of the attack which ultimately cause diplomatic quarrel between Pakistan and Iran could be intention in the minds of architect of the attacks about dragging long awaiting Pak Iran gas pipeline (PIP, it was PIIP before India quit) in to trouble waters, deal instigated in 1995, when Pakistan and Iran signed a preliminary agreement for construction of a natural gas pipeline linking the Iranian South Pars natural gas field in the Persian Gulf with Karachi. Iran later proposed an extension of the pipeline from Pakistan into India which not only would’ve benefit Pakitsan from Iranian natural gas exports, but Pakistani territory supposed to be used as a transit route to export gas to India which will ultimately help in nullifying motives of confrontations over energy shortage in region, but after almost 13 years India finally decided to quit the project in 2008, probably because of the reason that they do not want to use Pakistan’s territory as source of such huge investment for obvious strategic concerns, and offcourse India couldn’t be part of any economical development plan which is against US will, Pakistan is also facing harsh “criticism” from the US on the project. Project was named as “peace pipeline” and was finally signed between two governments just recently, but the details were yet to be decided , intentions of continuing on with process could’ve received serious jolt by this attack on Iran considering the Iranian reaction over the issue, it could possibly be an object or at least a “planned side effect” of the event as project after its completion will cause Pakistan to have less dependency on oil and will weaken another foreign card in shape of petro-dollar lever, which both of our “friends” (Saudis+Arabs) and US tends to use more often to interfere into Pakistan’s domestic matters.
Historically there are evident speculations about Iranian association in perusing for Baluchistan, Islamic revolution probably hasn’t effected the spirit of Iranian nationalism that’s why perhaps their state of mind is still quite a xeno-phobia-ic reflection of Iranian nationalism when it comes to claiming the boarders of 2000 year old civilization, Iran was and in some degree even today involved in causing destabilization in Baluchistan, by supporting groups of their liking, various accounts on Pak-Iran boarder have been recorded in which their was collision between the Pakistani and Iranian security forces, when Pakistani forces were reportedly tackling Incursion from across the boarders, Pakistan has always kept a lid on the matter and hasn’t gone vigorously on the subject because of apparent good will and spirit of friendship, Instead Pakistan has opposed UN resolutions which were meant to impose sections on Iran by playing an active role in security council and IAE platform, Iranians have to keep these facts in their minds and should accept the broad mind Pakistani approach as positive intent of building strong bilateral relations on the bases of existing mutual spirit of brother hood among the common mass of the both countries, declaring intentions of having a hot pursuit in Pakistani lands is definitely not going to help the cause.
Pakistan and Iran are facing same menace of terrorism instigated by the foreign forces, those forces are using some misguided (in some cases) theocratic rebels to achieve the job, both countries have same challenges to compete with, Its hard to believe that Iran doesn’t know about US involvement in region and if they are aware of then it is the inevitability of the time that they should seriously think about joining hands with Pakistan to face this confronting front instead pointing finger to another victim of same vanity by acting upon the emotional responses. Its very complicated situation which is quite tricky to be named at this point of time, bothe Pakistan and Iran should be rational enough to consider about all the sides and angles of this asymmetrical object.
