Balochistan, Dialogue or Disaster? | Habib Akram V-Log

Описание: Habib Akram V-Log #168 | 5 February 2026

In this vlog, Habib Akram reflects on Pakistan’s past to warn about its present — and possibly its future — with a deeply personal and historical analysis of Balochistan.

Drawing from his early years as a laborer in Saudi Arabia during the 1990s, Habib Akram recalls conversations with Bangladeshis who had witnessed the breakup of Pakistan in 1971. Through those lived experiences, he revisits how political denial, rejection of electoral mandates, moral justification of force, and delayed dialogue gradually turned a demand for provincial autonomy into a full-scale separation.

The vlog traces the sequence of events in East Pakistan — ignored elections, rise of militancy, state operations, foreign intervention, and finally national disintegration — and draws troubling parallels with recent developments in Balochistan.

Habib Akram critically examines:

The January 31, 2026 incidents across multiple cities in Balochistan

The dangers of treating political grievances solely as security problems

How public sympathy shifts when dialogue is replaced by force

Why negotiations with peaceful political stakeholders are not weakness but necessity

The risks of repeating history by ignoring representation, consultation, and legitimacy

He argues that terrorists are not to be negotiated with, but political forces that believe in peaceful struggle must never be pushed out of the process. Without transparent elections, genuine representation, and inclusive dialogue, no amount of force can bring lasting stability.

This vlog is not an attack on the state — it is a plea to save the state from repeating its own mistakes.

💬 Questions for the comments section:

Are we repeating the mistakes of East Pakistan in Balochistan?

Can force alone resolve political grievances?

Is meaningful dialogue still possible before it’s too late?
