Pakistani Occupied Balochistan:Taliban movement and security priorities of Military rulers Military is establishing check posts and cantonments in Eastern and Western regions of Balochistan to suppress the moderate Baloch nationalists. However Taliban infiltration and free movement is continued from Northern Balochistan particularly from Quetta and northern districts . All intelligence agencies are assigned and determine to intimidate and eliminate Baloch people but Taliban are privileged to populate in Quetta and rest of the Taliban dominated regions. And come a testimony , of James R. Clapper, Jr.Undersecretary of Defense for Intelligence , before congress : Because of recent events, we expect President Musharraf to become much more active in addressing this problem. We have taken, and continue to take, a number of steps to help him, including: - Funding, through the useful vehicle of Coalition Support Funds, much of the operating costs of Pakistani security forces conducting counter terrorist operations in the Federally Administered Tribal Areas and elsewhere on the Pakistani border with Afghanistan, Providing 24 Bell helicopters and air assault training to Pakistani security forces so they can operate rapidly and effectively in the FATA and other remote regions, - Providing key night vision capability, including equipment and training, to enable helicopter pilots of the Pakistani Army to pursue terrorists around the clock, - Transferring $110 million to the Department of State to support economic development in the FATA. This effort will help strike at the root causes of terrorism. - Congress was instrumental in providing support for all of these measures, and its support for the authorization to transfer funds to the State Department was particularly helpful.
