The guards are believed to have been transferred to the Pakistani side of Baluchistan Iran on several occasions, and as late as yesterday, has hinted of a military incursion into Pakistan to free them.
time for missiles and drones. for once iran needs to put his money where his mouth is. look how israelis deal with the situations like this!
ReplyDeleteThis needs to be a rescue mission. Missiles and drones alone will not the hostages lives.
DeleteI would tend to agree, Iran must show some sort of resolute action so the Pakis take this seriously. The BLA (Baluch Liberation Army) is at war with the Punjabi army and will be happy to provide the GPS coordinates for a missile of drone strike on the Wahhabi terror camps. For more detailed information on the worsening situation in Paki occupied Baluchistan, there is plenty of info on the BLA and Baluch Warna websites.
DeleteThe regime is only capable in attacking the Iranian people.
ReplyDeleteJust like there was no sign of Osama Bin Laden in Pakistan!
