Excellent article. Pepe Escobar seems to know the politics of the area. Quetta along with Kandahar is the Taliban Central. The Baluchis are fierce fighters and they a fiercly freedom loving. One thing that worries me is that they are slowly developing a liking for the fundamental Islamic way of life. I would hope that VOA and BBC would step up their broadcasts top those regions to wean them away from this extremism.
