The Balochistan Liberation Army (also Baloch Liberation Army, or BLA) is a militant organization 〔(【引用サイトリンク】title=List of banned organisations in Pakistan )〕〔(【引用サイトリンク】title=List of Terrorist Organisations Proscribed by the British Home Office – markulyseas - My Telegraph )〕 based in Balochistan, a mountainous region of western Pakistan. The Baloch Liberation Army became publicly known during the summer of 2000, after it claimed credit for a series of bombing attacks on Pakistani authorities. The group is currently headed by Hyrbyair Marri and has an estimated strength of 10,000 members. ==History== BLA (Balochistan Liberation Army) was built around the core of BSO (Baloch Students Organization). BSO was a group of students in Quetta and some other cities of Balochistan. Misha and Sasha can be considered among the architects of the original BLA.〔(【引用サイトリンク】title=(Material ) Pakistan: Unveiling the Mystery of Balochistan Insurgency — Part Two )〕 The BLA remained active during the Russo-Afghan war and then it disappeared from the surface, mostly because its main source of funding – the Soviet Union – disappeared from the scene. On 10 February 1973, Pakistani police and paramilitary raided the Iraqi embassy in Islamabad without prior permission of the Iraqi government, during which a large cache of small arms, ammunition, grenades and other supplies were found in crates marked 'Foreign Ministry, Baghdad'. The ammunition and weaponry was believed to be destined for Baloch rebels. Pakistan responded by expelling and declaring persona non grata the Iraqi Ambassador Hikmat Sulaiman and other consular staff. In a letter to President Nixon on February 14, Bhutto blamed India and Afghanistan, besides Iraq and the Soviet Union, for involvement in a “conspiracy … () subversive and irredentist elements which seek to disrupt Pakistan’s integrity”〔(【引用サイトリンク】title=The Friday Times:Caught! (But what?) by Shahid Saeed )〕 Wright-Neville writes that besides Pakistan, some Western observers also believe that India secretly funds the Balochistan Liberation Army (BLA).However, in August 2013 US Special Representative James Dobbins said “The dominant infiltration of militants is from Pakistan into Afghanistan, but we recognise that there is some infiltration of hostile militants from the other direction as well."So Pakistan's concerns aren't groundless. They are simply, in our judgement, somewhat exaggerated.”" 抄文引用元・出典: フリー百科事典『 ウィキペディア（Wikipedia）』 ■ウィキペディアで「Balochistan Liberation Army」の詳細全文を読む スポンサード リンク
