The shadow war in Balochistan

Just when Iran and Pakistan had reached a key Pipelineistan breakthrough, regional violence exploded involving, once again, “the greatest prize” Balochistan. The key question to ask is, as usual, cui bono?, or “Who profits?” What’s behind this new, bloody intersection of Pipelineistan and the former “global war on terror” – a key theme US President On May 22 in Tehran, Pakistani President Asif Ali Zardari and Iranian President Mahmud Ahmadinejad finally signed a preliminary agreement, after 14 long years of negotiations, to build the Iran-Pakistan (IP) pipeline, formerly the Iran-Pakistan-India (IPI), or “peace pipeline”. (The final deal should, in theory, be sealed in less than two weeks.) The decision brazenly defied Washington’s diktat. (Please see Pipelineistan goes Iran-Pak, May 29, 2009, Asia Times Online.)
