Quetta: Suspected Baloch militants blew up a gas pipeline near Quetta on Tuesday, cutting supplies to a power plant and several areas, a gas company official said. Gas supplies were cut to four districts near Quetta and a 95 MW city power plant. Supplies might be restored to some areas within 24 hours, Nawaz said. No one was hurt in the early morning blast in the outskirts of Quetta. They planted explosives under an 18-inch pipeline that blew out a 4-foot piece of the pipe, said Sheikh Nawaz, general manager of Sui Southern Gas Company. agencies
I sure hope we're giving these guys the bombs...
It would be nice if we gave them some of those captured Iranian IED we have been hearing about.

We have gotten better & better. News coming out of Iran will really begin to show the hard fought lessons we have learned. The shoe is on the other foot now.
Darn those gremlins...clearly a zionist plot, eh, Abby Dinnerjacket?
Blowing up an 18-inch pipeline is an experts work aside from the amount of explosives and quality it will need, that's quite expensive... Who's supplying the Baluchs with all these stuff? What's making them so bold to do this? .... good job!
oops, they did it again...trouble in persian paradise.
I'd much rather they blew up a
foreigner staffed Basiji garrison,
or a Republican Guard HQ, or
a prominent hardliner mullah.
Patience please. Death is possible when there are thousands of small cuts.

I thought the same thing when I read the headline.
Only the words that came to mind were "payback's a B*tch."
"Blowing up an 18-inch pipeline is an experts work aside from the amount of explosives and quality it will need, that's quite expensive..."
Naw, a humble E3 Combat Engineer with a few feet of ribbon cutting charge could do that in 2 minutes blind folded.
Since 1979 Iran's radical Islamist ideology has resulted in a elongated wave of state-sponsored terrorism on a worldwide basis.
52 U.S. diplomatic personnel were held hostage for four hundred forty-four days. 241 murdered U.S. Marines in Lebanon. Scores of American & other Western diplomats & citizens taken hostage many murdered. Iran founded funded, armed and trained Hizballah in Lebanon plus ideological and logistical support. Iran also funded (via it's Opec oil exports) the Pal-Arab rejectionist groups--including HAMAS, the Islamic Jihad and Ahmad Jibril's PFLP-GC all these Arab & Shi'ite terrorist groups united on two goals, extermination of the Jewish state of Israel and the destruction of America.
How Iran planned the Buenos Aires Jewish community center terrorist bombing in 1994
Iran's régime is also responsible for training and infiltrating Shi'ite terrorists into Iraq. Iran is supplying super-IEDs to Iraqi to Shi'ite terrorist gangs who continue murdering American troops and thousands of Iraqi civilians. Iranian terrorists have been blowing up Iraqi water supply systems, Iraqi 'Edison' power plants, and Iran's terrorist targeting of Iraqi crude oil pipeline system. the main source of revenue to the recovering economy.
"America cannot do anything, and if in war with infidels you kill or be killed you will be happy and will go to paradise". Ayatollah Khomeini
It would just add to the rage that this American still harbors for the 283 Marines killed in their sleep in Beirut in '83 by Iranian backed Hezbollah.
An in-law of mine lost an uncle in the bombing of the US Embassy there.
I am still waiting for payback.
