Some good information here, but this is difficult to wade through. It also contains some dangerously unsupported statements (see quotes). I recommend this story for the Pakistani perspective, but be wary.

Interesting overview of the growing Taliban influence in Balochistan, which is widely believed to be a major center center for Islamic militants in the region. This article seems informative, but doesn't name its sources, besides citing American news reports. The alleged U.S. efforts to prevent China's access to the Indian Ocean seem a bit far fetched, with no verifiable evidence to back these claims.

I have no means to determine if this article is factual and quality information. However, my instinct is it is authoritative and thoughtful. I am glad to see a story from a different perspective.
