language and the earth "are valuable

I once asked a wise man that distinguish us from other nations, said: "Language and the Earth" if these things were taken, the annihilation of the nation is assured. Today, about 6,000 languages spoken Balochi in the world and is one of them. UNESCO has proclaimed February 21 as International Day of Mother Language Conference at its General in November 1999. The first ceremony of the Mother Tongue Day was held at UNESCO Headquarters and its Director-General Koïchiro Matsuura in his opening remarks, said: "Languages are not only an essential cultural heritage of humanity but the irreducible expression of human creativity and its great diversity. "He added that" the advancement of linguistic diversity and development of multilingual education from an early age helps to preserve cultural diversity and conditions of understanding, tolerance and mutual respect. "Vigdis Finnbogadottir, Goodwill Ambassador of UNESCO for Languages and former President of Iceland, have attended the first celebration of International Day of Mother Language. He stressed the value of the two languages as media and expressions of culture and identity. Ms. Finnbogadottir qualified languages as "the most precious treasures and fragile humanity."

The inspiration to mark the International Day of the language comes from the struggle of the Bengali nation to get recognized as their mother tongue. Language Movement was strong in East Pakistan, now Bangladesh, Pakistan's birth in 1947. Pakistan Education Minister Fazlur Rahman called on Pakistan education Conference at Karachi in November 1947 and the representative of East Pakistan at the conference, as opposed to the single national language Urdu. leaders Pakistan never understood the sprinkling of the people for their mother tongue and continued to maintain its policy of strength to all Urdu as the sole national language Pakistan. On January 26, 1952, the Committee of the basic principles of the Constituent Assembly Pakistan has announced its recommendation that Urdu is the language State only. At a public meeting at Paltan Maidan, Dhaka, said Prime Minister Nazimuddin Urdu only be official language of Pakistan. Both developments have led to the agitation against the second language in East Bengal.

The situation worsened February 21, 1952, when police fired on students at Dhaka University who wanted to protest against the decision before the Provincial Assembly, which was in its budget session. Students defy ban took a procession of Dhaka University and marched to the Assembly province. Police opened fire on students in front of the hostel Medical College, five students Salauddin Mohammad Abdul Jabbar, Abul Barkat, Abdus Salam Ahmed Rafiquddin and were martyred. The next day, the area around the Dhaka University, Faculty of Medicine and the Faculty of Engineering have been filled with thousands of men and women who came to offer prayers for the victims of police shootings. After prayer, they released a procession He was fired again, killing four people. On February 23, despite the resolution adopted unanimously by the Assembly Provincial recommend to the Constituent Assembly should be one of the Bengali language of state of Pakistan, observed a general strike Dhaka complete crippling. The same day, medical students presents a collage Shaheed Minar (martyrs' memory) night at the place where Barkat give his life to commemorate the ultimate sacrifice and students in the general population of their native language. Later became a symbol Shaheed Minar Meeting for Bengalis. Mr. Rafiqul Islam to rule on the events of 1952 in his book "History of millions" he said, "The movement of language added a new dimension to politics in Pakistan. He left a deep impression in the minds of the young generation of Bengali and imbued with the spirit of Bengali nationalism. The passion of Bengali nationalism was awakened by the movement of the tongue is burning in the heart of the Bengalis forever … Perhaps very few people realized that the bloodshed in the state of the newborn in Pakistan in 1952, in fact, started to bleed death. "Nearly 20 years after the start of the day, the brave son of the Bengali nation scarified their lives for their mother tongue was their homeland free from the tyranny of Pakistan. Today is a country proud of their native language as a language.

The basis of the struggle of the Baloch nationalist movement is different that of the liberation movement was Bangla, instead of the mother tongue, his inspiration comes from the house. Although both are an essential part of identity of a nation, but there are two reasons why the country has become the symbol of Baloch nationalism meeting.

1. Unlike Bengalis Balochistan, did not vote to join Pakistan, and was annexed by force of military occupation in March 1948. Fight against the occupation, and liberate the country has become the cry of the Baloch national movement.
2. Baluchi language is not developing as Bangla is why not become the commercial language Balochi or academic Balochistan. The agony of the abolition of the Baluchi language felt by the regime in a small room of education in Balochistan, and could not become a mass movement.

For the invaders occupying the land and impose their rule over the people is easy, but are argued that the domination of the occupation force has continuously organized repression to free cultural life of the persons concerned, that is, genocide culture is the only way that tenants maintain dominance over the natives. Language is the basis of all cultures and therefore is always first victim of cultural genocide. To establish a long-term strategy, the occupant is dedicated to uproot the national culture and language the people taken to deny future generations the chance to know their heritage. Thus, the integration of persons with permanent hegemony colonial dominance.

After serving in Balochistan, Pakistan plans the same phenomena of settlers. In his 61 years in power in Balochistan Pakistan leaders launched all attempts of intellectuals to develop Baloch Balochi language teaching Baloch nation. The title = "Prime Minister"> The chief minister of Baluchistan, Nawab Akbar Khan Bugti Shaheed National Alliance (page does not exist) "> Balochistan National Alliance government (02/04/1989 to 06/08/1990) introduces the Baluchi language in schools, based on one year, but before Bugti Islamabad Government has been dissolved, the education project initiated by him Balochi, has been suspended.

The situation in the west (Iran) Baluchistan is serious and can be regarded as genocide and ethnic cleansing culture. cleric regime in Iran is not only the people in the cities of Balochistan with the settlers, but after Mr. Bander Abbas are now trying to change the demography of the port city of Chahbahar too. Persian is develops in all the other nationalities living in Iran. Promoting the Baluchi language and culture is considered a crime by the leaders of Iran. Mehrnehad Yaghub Martyrdom is a test of the repression and cruelty of the Iranian culture and language Baluchi. Culture is a powerful weapon of resistance against occupation and Shaheed Yaghub Meharnehad knew, so do the enemies of the Baloch nation. When he began organizing events for folk music and language courses Baluchi Baluchi to promote culture, the occupation by Iran of the strengths I could not tolerate and he was arrested, tortured, then sentenced to death.

Baloch nation has been occupied and the distribution of land by the British Baloch brutal genocide from Iran five brutal military operations by the Pakistani army. In today's Balochistan, the violation of human rights is a common practice every day, where, killing thousands of civilians, abduction and torture of more than 6,000 young people of Balochistan, sexual abuse of women in Balochistan, including Zareen understood Marri, and forced internal displacement of 250,000 tribemen their ancestral tribal lands by military sudden, a deaf ear to the scale International. Despite the brutal atrocities, people never ceased to Balochistan and the reason for this resistance is the strong sense of belonging to land and cultural heritage. repression of the Pakistani and Iranian culture and language of Balochistan and the systematic marginalization of their land Historical forced the Baluch nation, realize that the only hope for the future lies in collective resistance to annihilation, ie, will be remembered in history books as an indigenous people once a free country called Baluchistan.

How many soldiers die in Afghanistan that delays in decision Obama's hard 2 keep his popularity above 50%?

A one mile from South Station, an outpost of U.S. Marines in Helmand province, the tribal leader was openly hostile. "The Americans are threatening our economy and our land for bases. Many promises and deliver nothing, "he said. Http: / / www.timesonline.co.uk/tol/news/world/Afghanistan/article6888996.ece "People by on U.S. troops as occupiers, "said Haji Khan, a Baluch tribal leader, who governs like a baron of the Middle Ages." The Young turn against them and with time against them. "

. A better question, my friend, how many soldiers and Iraqis killed in Iraq during "The war that should never have started? Looks like we were doing fine until a connection screams "Afghanistan" "Genius" Cheney and his puppet, G. Dubya Boosh has decided to withdraw the troops, assets, materials, etc., in Afghanistan and sent to Iraq. Buddy which is not one hundred percent FVCKING Obama fault. Obama has increased the number of troops in more than 28,000 soldiers (and all this in nine months in power … Bush-Cheney for eight years …): How does it compare to the Bush plan does not seem ineffective half-Cheney disastrous your ass? Your silence is deafening, sir, and with good: Any response to be nothing more deceptive chin trembling, prevarication and deception, a Potemkin village of a real argument. We will always be perceived as' occupiers reason "by people who, through no fault of their own, living in what we consider to be the 13th century. We collected as "occupiers" at least, and always regarded as corrupt, by Muslims who do not want American troops in Saudi Arabia …. In fact, the main complaint of bin Laden, is that very point: "infidels" in the Country Home of Mecca and Medina 2 of the holiest shrines of Islam (In the Temple of the Rock in Jerusalem). Any rational person would understand that the unstable political situation in Afghanistan (and, dare we even "touch" concomitant economic factors and tribal in this equation?), prudence and caution are given. Obama is not deprive the troops all the support essential. commanders in the field of General McChrystal down, has time to assess their defenses, their tactics, etc. Too bad that more thought went in the "thinking" of Iraq vis-à-vis Afghanistan under Cheney-Bush buffoonery … But what you can expect from these two projects arrogant-Dodgers? And like Palin, Dobbs, Hannity, Beck, Limbaugh, Boehner, Bachmann, O'Reilly, and type "live" unless that glorious lie "Things that make up", thus forming an "internal enemy, the Taliban and Al Qaeda are their counterparts in their own bailiwicks. See what happens in countries where religion takes precedence over common sense? Hint hint. The fundamentalists in Afghanistan and Iraq (among others) are the equivalent of immorality the Cheney-Bush crusade "against the people who call God by different names: the hell with you! If McCain is willing to promise our troops in Iraq for "a hundred years", you are asked what his exit strategy? After all, one hundred years would set the "military debt "ON YOUR children and grandchildren. Does this sound strangely familiar? Is it the pinch of shoes when you are at the foot of her, Cinderella? Good luck in the real world, my friend ..
