HDP chairman, Abdul Khaliq Hazara, highlights the genocide of the Hazaras in Pakistan.

Hazaras joined a protest rally in Canberra, Australia, after a 10-day sit in infront of the Pakistan Embassy. There is an indefinite protest scheduled infront of the Embassy of Pakistan to bring the Pakistani Government to shame whose security agencies are colluding with the terrorists in carrying out the genocide of Hazaras for the last one decade. US government cables on Wiki Leaks blames the Saudi and UAE governments for financing these terrorists and the Asian Human Rights blames the Pakistani government for training and protecting the terrorists. No terrorist has ever been brought to justice for the past 10 years.

"Minority rights:
This year has seen further incidents of discrimination against minorities in Pakistan, including against the Hindu and Hazara populations. In particular, we are concerned about targeted attacks on the Hazara population in Balochistan in the second half of 2011 and the Ahmadi community in Pakistan."
Hazara killers need to be brought to justice: Alan Johnson
Reported By Muhammad Younas / April 30, 2012
“Since the parliamentary debate on March 1st, 2012, scores of Hazaras have been killed and targeted that’s why it is very increasing concern for our parliament and I think your demonstration today will raise the profile of this issue and will draw the attention of other parliamentarians to what’s going
on so the concentrated actions through the UN, Foreign office, European Union can ensure that we stop what is a horrendous killings and the Hazaras can live in peace in a country that they have done
too much to contribute over the years”

Hazara Mughul Yukjehti Forum, Karachi, Pakistan - demands inquiry of Hazara target killings by the United Nations. Forum warns of taking issue to The International Court of Justice if justice was not served.
[ Urdu / Samma TV ]
Bamyan and Daikundi protests of huge significane for the entire Hazara nation The news of the protests by Hazaras in Bamyan and DaiKundi - the heart of the Hazaristan (Hazarajat) - has been hailed as one of the historic news for the entire Hazara nation. This signals the coming together of both the communities since the genocide of the Hazaras in 1890's by the Afghan ruler, Abdur Rahman Khan, in which an estimated 60% of the entire Hazara population was annihilated, thousands of Hazaras were forced into slavery, and Hazara lands were distributed to the Pushtuns (and Kuchis).
The senseless killings of hundreds of Hazaras by the state-sponsored terrorists in Pakistan has pushed the entire Hazara nation to come together everywhere in the world.
Why are the Hazaras being killed in Balochistan - Akram Gizabi / April 21, 2012
There is a dramatic increase in the senseless and cowardly attacks on Hazara civilians in Quetta,
Pakistan. People are being targeted for no apparent reasons. The attacks are indiscriminate and
random and the victims are exclusively Hazaras. The latest attack took the lives of eight people who
were gunned down in broad day light in a crowded part of the city.
Why are these people targeted in such a brutal fashion and where is the government security
apparatus to protect the citizens? Is it the government policy to give a green light to the terrorists to
subdue certain segments of the society?
Who kills Hazaras in Pakistan and why? - Muhammad Younas / April 5, 2012
Now, you might have a question, as why Hazaras are being killed in Quetta City by the extreme religious militant groups, the answer is very simple. After 9/11 when international forces attacked on Taliban in Afghanistan, Hazaras in Afghanistan along with other ethnic minorities fully supported the international community to get the Taliban out of Afghanistan.
Connection Between the Pakistani Military And Hazara Killings in Quetta - Amjad Hussain / April, 2012
“I dont hold anybody responsible for the brutal murder of my sister, but the provincial government and the Pakistani military spy agency, ISI”, says Yazdan Salimi, a young Hazara man whose sibling was among the victims of March 29 terrorist attack in Quetta on a Suzuki van carrying Hazara commuters from one part of the capital city to another.
Rapprochement with the Taliban: is it Tenable? - Akram Gizabi / Feb 23, 2012
Are the Taliban a terrorist group? Is the country that harbors and nurtures them on the US list of State Sponsors of Terrorism? The answers to both of these questions are obvious and need not require any elaboration. What does however necessitate scrutiny and expansion is why the Obama administration is so keen to support rapprochement with the Taliban as well as their primary sponsor and indirect supporters alike? Moreover, would it not be logical to talk to the sponsors (i.e., benefactors) rather than the sponsored?

A Victim of Being Hazara and Shia in Pakistan - Mohammad Younas / Oct 4, 2011
