Next: Free Baluchistan?

If it hits the fan in Pakistan, Bush’s victory in neighboring Afghanistan could be a Pyrric one… From AP:

QUETTA, Pakistan – Three rockets fired by unidentified assailants
landed in a residential area of this deeply conservative southwestern
Pakistani city, but no one was injured, police said Saturday.

It was not immediately clear who was behind late Friday’s
attack in Quetta, the capital of southwestern Baluchistan province, and
police official Sher Nawaz Marwat said they were still investigating.

Previously, authorities have blamed similar attacks on ethnic
Baluch nationalists, who are angry at government plans to build new
army garrisons in the province and economic development plans which
they say will benefit outsiders more than locals.
