Pakistan’s Balochistan province appears to be a target of a conspiracy that aims at cutting this resource-rich and strategic piece of property off Pakistan. There is no question that a foreign-inspired and funded insurgency is being thrust on the province, exploiting genuine domestic grievances. Terrorists are being sheltered and trained in Afghanistan for this purpose. The role of Washington and New Delhi is quite documented in this regard, with the Karzai people playing the role of puppets. Now, a retired Pakistan physicist who has worked for NASA argues, based on his work, that the Balochistan earthquake might be manmade. We know that in such circumstances, spy agencies come into action and try to exploit the situation. But this is a different argument. Conspiracy theorists will love it, others will dismiss it, but it is worth taking a look at. There is no reason not to believe that someone out there might be researching how to create artificial earthquakes.
