ISLAMABAD - Pakistan has denied Iranian claims that the government is aware of the Jundallah chief’s presence in Balochistan.

The Daily Times quoted foreign office spokesman Abdul Basit, as saying that the Iranian ambassador’s claim that the Jundullah chief is hiding in Pakistan could harm relations between both countries.

Pakistan and Iran were cooperating in the war on terror, and both countries enjoyed “friendly relations”.

Basit said that the war on terror in South Waziristan reflected Pakistan’s commitment not to allow its territory to be used for activities against any other country.

“Pakistan is not involved in terrorist activities … we are striving hard to eradicate the menace,” he said. (ANI)

Pakistan has been double faced for a long time and it is only now that the world has realised this and are having to do something.
All the issues that they have taken up have actually been used to create trouble for their neighbours.
Kashmir - is about water. Not about any great love to their brothers there.
Afghanistan - is about creating unrest and getting them to depend on the Paki state for survival. They are like maggots on carcasses.
Baluchistan - is about persecuting a people while usurping their natural recourses.
Iran - Acting for the CIA and others to formant trouble so that they ingratiate themselves to the west for a few dollars more.
Pakistan needs to be Balkanised to be controlled.
