Balochistan's vision is that it will be a democracy with one man one vote. Nobody will be superior or inferior. All will be equal. The one who is on the mountain or the one who is agitating on the streets, whether he is doing or asking for his rights. All of them who are living on this land from Arand and Dajal (Southern Punjab), or from the desert and plains in southern Afghanistan to the sea, from Kirman to Bander Abass and from northern Sindh, we all are Baloch. Our thinking and heart should be as big as this vast land of ours.
I have heard it said that "The pen is mightier than the sword." To which I reply: Pick it up. Write the powers that be, and say "I will be a voice to speak for this voiceless nation of Balochistan and because they cannot, I will be asking for help for them. By this, they are no longer voiceless, because I will have volunteered your voice to speak for them. I heard it said that until Balochistan's problem becomes worse, that it does not matter, but I say that if this voiceless nation's situation becomes any graver there will be no nation to save.

Confrontation over the quest for independent Baluchistan is likely to grow, unless Iranian and Pakistani elite suspend their inherent right to colonization and accommodate independent Baluchistan.
It is time for the Obama administration to initiate a dialogue with the Baloch people and explore how we can help to secure a stable Middle East and south Asia. We have bases, a strategic 900 miles of warm water coastline, energy routes and oil and gas reserves. An independent Baloch has a lot to offer in return. A secular, independent and democratic Balochistan is in the interest of the larger cause of liberty, human rights and democracy.
This conference has been convened to appeal to the world and in particular to the United States of America and its inhabitants to not forget or forsake the Baloch struggle simply because it is lacks the public relations ability that others have.
