Baluchis, like the Kurds in the Mid East, are trying to get a nation of their own. They are also fighting the Pakistani government, which is Sunni-dominated. Nationalism is not unknown in the Muslim world. Note that Pakistan and Bangladesh used to be a single country. Bengalis fought a war of secession, with help from India, to get their own state. Aceh in Indonesia is, of course, also trying to get its independence.
"Syme: It's a beautiful thing, the destruction of words. You wouldn't have seen the [Newspeak] Dictionary 10th edition, would you Smith? It's that thick. [illustrates thickness with fingers] The 11th Edition will be that [narrows fingers] thick. Winston Smith: So, The Revolution will be complete when the language is perfect? Syme: The secret is to move from translation, to direct thought, to automatic response. No need for self-discipline. Language coming from here [the larynx], not from here
[the brain]" -1984 (film)
