HELMAND, Feb. 25 - The brave Mujahideen of the Islamic Emirate report from Helmand province that several U.S soldiers were killed as seven of the American armored tanks were separately destroyed in Mujahideen's planted mines in different parts of Marjah town of Nad Ali district throughout Thursday.

However, two of the U.S tanks were targeted in the separate bombings in the morning hours of Thursday.

NATO 'losing Afghan support'

Tuesday, February 23, 2010



Hamidullah says he is a member of the Taliban fighting against Operation Moshtarak - a joint Afghan-NATO offensive centered around Marjah, in Afghanistan's southern Helmand province.

He told Al Jazeera that the foreign troops' offensive is not succeeding, as they often kill civilians instead of Taliban fighters.

As a result, he says the Afghan people now support the Taliban more than before.

His statements come after a NATO air strike on what was assumed to be a bus carrying Taliban fighters on Sunday, killed 33 Afghan civilians.

Al Jazeera spoke to Hamidullah in an exclusive interview in Lashkar Gar, Helmand's capital city.

Interview with Qari M. Yousaf Ahmadi, spokesman of the Islamic Emirate of Afghanistan, about the general jihadic situation in Helmand and the neighboring provinces

Interview by Hekmat

Q: How do you see the current Jihadic situation in Helmand province and other surrounding provinces?

A: Mujahideen’s resistance against the enemy attacks in Marjah, Nad Ali district, has been continuing as per the plan. According to our previous predictions and assessment, the enemy has now been entangled in battles in accordance with our tactical plan and the enemy losses have been spiraling up with the passage of time. The Mujahideen have destroyed a great number of the invading enemy tanks in various tip-and-run attacks. In addition to this, they have lost several soldiers. Reports from the battlefield of Marjah indicate, that the enemy forces are suffering from sagging morale. They are trying to take out their besieged soldiers from the area where they were deployed on the first day of the operation. However, the enemy infantry and tanks are under constant siege wherever they are stationed. Whenever they try to wriggle off from the tangle of the siege, they come under attacks and ambushes of Mujahideen or hit by planted mines. Similarly, Mujahideen constantly launch missiles attacks against the invaders. The invading foreign forces have not made any advancement despite great material and life losses inflicted on them and seem to be trying to retreat from the areas. Two days ago, the invading enemy airlifted their soldiers from Qari Sadi, evacuating the area.

Q: At the beginning of the enemy attack, the enemy was speaking of their victories and advancement. Reports said that they had taken some areas. Western media also were repeatedly reporting their victories. What is the reality?

A: All that which happened on the first day of the operations were in accordance with our tactical plan. We wanted to deal a crushing a blow at the enemy, so we allowed enemy forces enter some areas without any resistance. The enemy thought, it was their remarkable advancement in the battle filed. So they boastfully claimed of having captured Marjah. Even some high-ranking official of the Kabul Administration held celebration of victory in Marjah. The enemy has no advancement at the battlefield throughout the past two weeks except heavy losses and casualties. They know now that their claim about capturing Marjah was not at proper time or before time. The enemy infantry are under siege in areas where they were airdropped on the second day of the operations. Enemy tanks and military vehicles do not find any way to go out of the villages where they have entered. The enemy now uses pedestrians’ paths because Mujahideen have mined the main road with IEDs. There are deep-water canals on both sides of the main roads, which are not passable for enemy tanks and vehicles. Mujahideen snipers are targeting and ambushing them constantly. Wherever, the enemy intends to move, they face attacks and ambushes, mine explosions etc.

Q: In the past few days, the enemy had material and soul losses in Marjah. Please share with us enemy loss figures.

A: It is now two weeks since the inception of Marjah operations. According to reports from the battlefield, the following are enemy losses. We have given these figures at the disposal of mass media outlets from time to time.

-Destroyed tanks 78
-Foreign troops killed 382
-Destroyed ranger vehicles 4
-Domestic soldiers killed 36.

Similarly, Mujahideen in other areas of Helmand province have stepped up their attacks on the invading enemy simultaneously. According to data on our hand, 51 foreign and 23 domestic soldiers have been killed as yet. 17 tanks and 6 military vehicles of the enemy have been destroyed in the said areas.

Q: What is your opinion about the Jihadic situation in other neighboring provinces of Helmand. Reports say that high momentum is seen in Jihadic activities in this year particularly in this severe winter in comparison with other previous years.

A: Yes, You are right. In the current year, Mujahideen of neighboring provinces of Helmand, launched devastative attacks against the enemy causing great losses to them. We have been witnessing simultaneous attacks of Mujahideen on the invading foreign forces. This has given the enemy the jitters and diluted their manpower to focus only on one area. Despite the harsh winter, enemy had great losses. Figures about the invaders losses indicate that Mujahideen activities have spiraled up in these province as follows.

Kandahar:
-Foreign troops killed 28.
-Domestic troops killed 33.
-Destroyed tanks 5.
-Destroyed ranger vehicles 5.

Farah:
-Foreign troops killed 29.
-Domestic troops killed 17.
-Destroyed tanks 8.
-Destroyed military vehicles 3.

Zabul:
-Foreign troops killed 3.
-Domestic troops killed 26.
-Destroyed tanks 1.
-Destroyed military vehicles 4.

Uruzgan:
-Foreign troops killed 5.
-Domestic troops killed 19.
-Destroyed tanks 1.
-Destroyed military vehicles 3.

These figures of enemy losses show their losses occurred in a few provinces. If we count enemy losses at country level, we see clear impetus of Jihadic activities and escalation of the invaders casualties and materials losses. Even some high-ranking enemy officials admit the achievements of the Mujahideen. So we can say as a whole, the Jihadic situation is convincing. With the help of Allah, we are not facing any obstacle that could not be overcome.

Q: Dear Mr. Ahmadi! The Marjah operation is believed to be an experimental operation to test the new American strategy. Do you think the enemy would be able to reach their goal by launching such operations?

A: It is experimental operation. This is true. The enemy openly admits that Marjah operations were a test for the new strategy. If this is true, the enemy should have known by now that their defeat is definitely a certainty. We see the situation of the battlefields in Marjah is going against the wishes of the enemy and they have no gains. They resorted to every kind of propaganda stunts to boost their position but have no advancement for the last two weeks. The reason for the enemy’s failure is that they have not learnt from the past eight years’ experiences. They want to show their muscles once again under the name of new strategy and prolong their occupation of the country. However, such adventures only add to the enemy losses. They have to face life and material losses. On the other hand, the civilian casualties and their compelling of common people to leave their homes cause deep anger and resentments among the masses. The enemy has to review their policies as regards to our country. This is now an accepted fact, that Americans and other invaders are not able to continue occupation of Afghanistan through military means. It will be better for them to pull their forces out of our country and leave the Afghans to live under the shade of an Islamic system.

Hekmat: Thank you for the time to give interview.

Ahmadi: Thank you.

Government of the Islamic Emirate of Afghanistan reports about battles in Marjah

Amid the silence of the Western propaganda about the widely advertised Western offensive in Helmand, the command of the Islamic Emirate of Afghanistan says what is actually happening on the front.

The press-service of the IEA published a government statement dated 23 February, where it reports about the defense of Marjah from the invading enemy forces. The statement says:

"In the name of Allah, the Merciful, the Compassionate

For the last two weeks, a 15,000-strong army of NATO, British and American forces has been carrying out military operations in a small are i.e. Marjah which is located in Nad Ali district.

A number of jet bombers of the enemy including unmanned drones and 60 gunship helicopters are taking part in the operations. In addition to this, the enemy have brought to the battle field their huge and most advanced tanks by the name of Abraham and Shifton, which approximately weigh 65 tons.

But despite the preparations, boasts and propaganda stunts, the enemy have not been able to make any headway against a small group of Mujahideen who are not more than 1000 armed men and their weapons are no match with those of the enemy. But still the sacrificing and committed Mujahideen have bravely blocked the invaders' way successfully.

...Skilled snipers have put shock and awe into the ranks of the enemy. The Mujahideen have blown up 53 tanks; shot down two unmanned drones and one helicopter besides killing tens of soldiers.

If we count the crews in the tanks which have been destroyed, we can easily conclude that the enemy losses are more than 100 soldiers.

...The enemy twice tried to airdrop soldiers behind the line of the fighting but soon Mujahideen besieged them and after Mujahideen inflicting on them losses, the enemy hastily left the area.

...There are thousands of towns in Afghanistan like Marjah in addition to about 385 districts in the country.

...Seeing that they were not able to take a small area like Marjah in two weeks, so ironically, how much decades and how massive force they would need to take the whole Afghanistan. Still it is a matter of pondering that the Mujahideen learn new tactics with the passage of time and their knowledge in the field of politics, culture and military experience increase with every passing day.

...It will be better for the rulers of the White House to put an end to the current unsuccessful adventure in Afghanistan. All invaders, beginning with Alexander, the Great up to the time of the former Soviet Union have tried this adventure in this Mujahid-bearing land but they all failed...

By traversing the same path of failure and fiasco, Obama only prolongs days and nights of his failure and disgrace...

The caravan of the holy martyrs and fighters will surely reach its destination soon or later. If Allah willing".

Marjah Operations are an Exemplary Lesson for the Invaders

A Report From The Afghanistan Resistance
Islamic Emirate of Afghanistan
Marjah Operations are an Exemplary Lesson for the Invaders

Rabi' al-awwal 09, 1431 A.H, Tuesday February 23, 2010

In the name of Allah, the Merciful, the Compassionate

For the last two weeks, a 15,000-strong army of NATO, British and American forces has been carrying out military operations in a small are i.e. Marjah which is located in Nad Ali district. A number of jet bombers of the enemy including unmanned drones and 60 gunship helicopters are taking part in the operations. In addition to this, the enemy have brought to the battle field their huge and most advanced tanks by the name of Abraham and Shifton, which approximately weigh 65 tons. But despite the preparations, boasts and propaganda stunts, the enemy have not been able to make any headway against a small group of Mujahideen who are not more than 1000 armed men and their weapons are no match with those of the enemy. But still the sacrificing and committed Mujahideen have bravely blocked the invaders’ way successfully.

Skilled snipers have put shock and awe into the ranks of the enemy. The Mujahideen have blown up 53 tanks; shot down two unmanned drones and one helicopter besides killing tens of soldiers. An Afghan honor-loving woman made history by shooting soldiers pointblank in the bazaar. She revived the memory of Malalai of the past and proved by her heroic act, that still there are many sisters-in-arms of Malalai in this land. If we count the crews in the tanks which have been destroyed, we can easily conclude that the enemy losses are more than one hundred soldiers.

Approximate, just two weeks ago, McChrystal, top commanders of American forces in Afghanistan, was boasting and claimed that he would soon take Marjah from Mujahideen. But today he admits that they are facing stiff resistance, which he did not imagine before. He said we thought if we make announcement about Marjah before the inception of the operations, Taliban would either fled or lay down their arms but now we are facing tough resistance contrary to our expectations.

Similarly, the enemy twice tried to airdrop soldiers behind the line of the fighting but soon Mujahideen besieged them and after Mujahideen’s inflicting on them losses, the enemy hastily left the area. Major General Nick Carter, NATO commander of forces in Helmand says we will be able in three months to say whether the operations were success or not.

These are the words uttered by the enemy and they are the ground realities, which are a good lesson for the moribund generals of Pentagon and the new rulers of the White House Administrations. There are thousands of towns in Afghanistan like Marjah in addition to about 385 districts in the country.

Seeing that they were not able to take a small area like Marjah in two weeks, so ironically, how much decades and how massive force they would need to take the whole Afghanistan. Still it is a matter of pondering that the Mujahideen learn new tactics with the passage of time and their knowledge in the field of politics, culture and military experience increase with every passing day.

It will be better for the rulers of the White House to put an end to the current unsuccessful adventure in Afghanistan. All invaders, beginning with Alexander, the Great up to the time of the former Soviet Union have tried this adventure in this Mujahid-bearing land but they all failed. By traversing the same path of failure and fiasco, Obama only prolongs days and nights of his failure and disgrace. Similarly, Obama should stop resorting to other stratagems and ploys because the resistance of Mujahideen has now evolved into a mature phase. This candle could not be extinguished by just blowing it away. The caravan of the holy martyrs and fighters will surely reach its destination soon or later. If Allah willing.

Taliban commander Mullah Abdul Ghani Baradar has not been captured by the U.S.

17 February 2010

One of the worlds leading propaganda media outlet The New York Times has citied US government officials who are claiming that Mullah Abdul Ghani Baradar (May Allaah protect him) of Islamic Emirate of Afghanistan has been captured in Pakistan by The United States and Pakistani intelligence forces in a secret joint operation in Karachi, he has been in Pakistani custody for several days and was being interrogated by Pakistani and US intelligence. Theunjustmedia.com on Rabi' al-awwal 03, 1431 A.H, Wednesday February 17, 2010 verify this news with the official spokesman of the Islamic Emirate of Afghanistan Zabihullah Mujahid.

Theunjustmedia.com: The Americans are claiming to have captured Mullah Abdul Ghani Baradar (May Allaah protect him) is this true.

Zabihullah Mujahid: No this is not true, Mullah Abdul Ghani Baradar (May Allaah protect him) is safe in Afghanistan, from where he is carrying on with his duties in liberating Afghanistan from the invaders. This latest propaganda by the Americans is to divert the attention of the world from their defeats in Marjah and to bring down the morals of the Mujahideen, but the enemy is forgetting that the Mujahid Nation of Afghanistan jihad is not an aspiration of one individual, but the aspiration of a whole Nation. The Mujahideen who are participating in this Jihad are not participating because of one individual, but because this is their Allaah's (SWT) given right, and the enemy has failed to comprehend this reality, thus it is facing defeat internally and externally.

The truth seeking citizens of this world are fully aware of American propaganda, as they have time to time witnessed the unfolding truth of their previous propagandas. The media outlets which are today proclaiming the captured of Mullah Abdul Ghani Baradar (May Allaah protect him) are the same media outlets which not to long a go claimed that Iraq had Weapons Of Mass Destruction, but later the whole world witnessed this to be not true. So, we ask the concerned citizens of this world, what will it take for you to start calling liars as liars, because those media outlets which are claiming the capture of Mullah Abdul Ghani Baradar (May Allaah protect him) are just that "liars", their abomination to journalism.

Five Americans, 7 Afghan soldiers killed in Marjah, 8 U.S soldiers injured

HELMAND, Feb. 18 - Mujahideen of the Islamic Emirate, during an encounter, killed 4 U.S. soldiers and wounded seven others near Marjah, Nad Ali district of Helmand, on Thursday.

"Together" Operations of the Common Enemy Under Crushing blows of Mujahideen

Thursday, 18 February 2010

According to authenticated reports from the Jihad and honor-loving land of Helmand, with a special help of Allah, the Almighty, the enemy is under crushing blows of Mujahideen. This is despite the accumulation of all kinds of warfare hardware and aerial and ground forces by the invading enemy.

Mujahideen incessantly attack and ambush them, which have stunned the colonialist enemy. On the basis of the data received here, the enemy have lost dozens of their soldiers-- both foreign and domestic. Similarly, 15 tanks and military vehicles of the enemy have been destroyed.

If we ponder over the capability of the two sides from the angle of sophisticated military hardware and numerical advantage, we see, on the one side, roughly 1000 straightforward Mujahideen armed with PK machine guns and rocket-propelled launchers, neither they have surveillance and reconnaissance planes, nor bomber helicopters, B52 planes, phosphorus bombs and other lethal chemical weapons at their disposal, the Western media and the local media which have sold out themselves for American dollars are against them; nor the Mujahideen have the United Nations and the human rights organizations on their sides which blindly give legal clout to every legitimate and illegitimate demands and act of the invaders.

But, despite all that, these ill-equipped and undermanned small group of men who have ardent attachment with the cause of Allah, the Almighty, have the upper hand over the enemy that have the sophisticated military hardware and are armed to the teeth and that, only for the battle of Marjah, gathered 15,000 soldiers. In addition to this, they have the support of 40 countries of the world. Still the Mujahideen put them backed into the corner.

The world is witnessing that the spinal cord of America has been broken up because of the current Jihad of the Afghan people.

The Western media admit that thousands of well-nourished American and NATO soldiers who violently cry at the time of their injury and dying, have been killed as a result of the war. Their economy has faced meltdown and disgrace is hastily becoming their fate. They have not been able to suppress or eliminate the Jihadic movement in Afghanistan despite the passage of eight years during which they resorted to every kind of brutal bombardment, destruction, tortures and all devilish tactics. Even they could not block the way of advancement of the Mujahideen.

It is a reality that the so-called Super Power has devilish ambitions, strength and capability but the Mujahideen have the help of Allah (SwT). The enemy have launched 15 operations in the heroic land of Helmand in the past 9 years, let alone other small and sporadic operations conducted by the invaders.

Every time when they launch operations, they make such a tremendous preparations as if they were going to war with a country. Moreover, they always launch propaganda stunt prior to such operations. But praise be to Allah, the almighty, no one can show us any vast area or a district in Helmand province as a proof which substantiates that the enemy writ has been established there permanently.

Helmand holds a message to the common enemy who have launched the operations “together” that you have not been able to subjugate the people of Helmand during the past nine years, despite your vast operations and bestialities.

Now it is not possible for you to have any gain or advancement in Helmand or any other part of the country—still more in a time that the American, British and their allies’ tactics have faced a complete fiasco in the country and the strongholds of Jihad have already expanded and strengthened in every corner of Afghanistan.

However, the enemy can resort to some brutalities, which they are doing right now: like blind bombardment and missile attacks, detainment of innocent people and driving them from their homes and hearths. More than that, they will not have any achievement. Nor Mc Crystal will be able to make for his shameful and historical defeat in Afghanistan by just focusing on one town of a district out of 385 districts of Afghanistan.

Enemy Entangled in Marjah

Tuesday, 16 February 2010

After the beginning of the military operation in Marja by the invaders, their advancement has been stalled by local Mujahideen in the area. According to reports, Mujahideen have started coordinated tip and run operations against the enemy not only in Marja but also in all other districts of Helmand province.

According to Yousef Ahmadi, spokesman of the Islamic Emirate of Afghanistan, Mujahideen attacked enemy forces at Loi Char Rahi, Block Nokaro Char Rahi and Camp areas. They are under siege now. The enemy wanted their infantry to join air-borne marines descended behind the lines. But Mujahideen, using there past experience, foiled the enemy efforts and besieged them. In another attack in Safun and Wakil Wazir areas, Mujahideen destroyed 7 tanks of the enemy and killed 25 invaders.

Report further say that Mujahideen are attacking enemy mobile patrol all throughout the area as per tactical plan already worked out by Mujahideen. The Mujahideen also penetrated into areas behind the enemy places of gatherings and they are attacking them from the back.

Earlier, enemy launched attacks from the side of Nawar and Shirn Jan Char Rahi but they faced planted land mines and lost a number of tanks and anti-mine vehicles. Similarly, in Aibadullah Qulp, Shamlan and Qari Sadi areas, near the center of Majah, enemy troops were killed as a result of incessant guerrilla attacks of Mujahideen and planted mines.

The Mujahideen have deployed special martyrdom-seeking teams in all areas of the enemy gathering.

Local commanders of Mujahideen are implementing the vast and long-term tactical plan of attacks hammered out by the military commission of the Islamic Emirate of Afghanistan. The aim is to entangle the enemy in long-term battles. Mujahideen are coordinating their operations on the basis of the war plan.

Ironically, the enemy is exacting revenge on the civilians after facing defeat at the hand of the Mujahideen.

They attack villages and people houses with mortar rounds and missiles. So far enemy have martyred 17 civilians in two separate incidents. 12 civilians were killed in a blind missile attack on residential area while, in a night raid on Qari Sadi village, near the center of Marja, enemy troops opened fire on members of a family, killing five persons on the spot.

Invitation of the Islamic Emirate to (independent) Journalists to Visit Marjah

Tuesday, 16 February 2010

Since the enemy have forced the international media through coercion and cash incentives to make partial reporting about (the current fighting) to make it possible to hide their shameful defeat in the Marjah area of Nad Ali district, Helmand province, therefore, the Islamic Emirate of Afghanistan requests all independent mass media outlets of the world to send their reporters to Marjah; to see the situation with their own eyes and convey the facts to the public of the world.

Such visit will portray the ground realities and will show who have the upper hand in the area; what are the facts and who control vast areas of Marjah? In fact, the invading forces have made no spectacular advancement since the beginning of the operations. They have descended from helicopters in limited areas of Marjah and now are under siege.

The invaders are not able to come out of their ditches. Wherever they intend to move, they come under severe attacks of Mujahideen and face explosions of planted mines. Then they retreat hastily. The enemy troops have lost their morale. The local people are beholding the foreign troops crying loudly.

If the coalition invading forces give permission to independent reporters, they will unearth many secrets.

Colonialist Motives Behind Marjah Operations

Tuesday, 16 February 2010

It is now for one week that the invading enemy have launched military operations named “together” against Mujahideen in Marjah, a part of Nad Ali district, Helmand province. They have put more than 15,000 American, NATO and the hireling Afghan troops against a minuscule number of Mujahideen in the area. More than 60 helicopters, armed with hellfire missiles, and hundreds of tanks are taking part in the operation.

Marja has remained in the hands of Mujahideen for the last few years. Other parts of Helmand province like Baghiran, Dishu, and Washer districts are already under the administration of the Islamic Emirate of Afghanistan. So question rises why the enemy chose Marjah, a small area, to launch operations. Ostensibly, the enemy say that they want to put pressure on Taliban to accept the government terms of re-integration and reconciliation announced at the end of London Conference on 28th of last month. In fact, Marjah is a geopolitically important area because it borders on Baluchistan, Pakistan where China has a vast developmental project in the shape of Gwadaer seaport.

The invading America wants to control the transit way to Gwader in order to ensure a short-cut for supply of its logistics which are now shipped through Karachi sea port, Pakistan and through Tajikistan to the north of Afghanistan. They also want stymie Chinese involvement in the Gwadar project. Similarly, in light of the new round of the politically tense situation between Washington and Tehran over uranium enrichment and Iran’s missiles program, the White House wants to install new espionage equipments in Marjah close to the Iranian border. In addition to this, British invaders have been extracting uranium in Sangin district which is fraught with raw uranium.

Local Mujahideen say, the British invading forces have brought heavy excavation equipments to the district for extraction of uranium in Sangin.

The British are also involved in drug trafficking in Helmand province. They are secretly taking heroin in British planes to black markets in Europe. No question, the war fought under the name of terrorism has other political and economic motives including expansionist goals rather than the so-called announced War on Terror. However, the Afghani Mujahideen have been sacrificing their lives to ensure independence of their country and put an end to the colonialist game started under the unjustified reasons and causes.

Despite the media fanfare and partial reporting of the Western media, Mujahideen of the Islamic Emirate of Afghanistan in Marjah have besieged the enemy troops. Fresh reports from the area say: “In fact, the invading forces have made no spectacular advancement since the beginning of the operations. They have descended from helicopters in limited areas of Marjah and now are under siege.

The invaders are not able to come out of their ditches. Wherever they intend to move, they come under severe attacks of Mujahideen and face explosions of planted mines. Then they retreat hastily. The enemy troops have lost their morale. The local people are beholding the foreign troops crying loudly.“

We want all freedom- loving forces in the world to support the legitimate cause of the Afghan Mujahideen led by the Islamic Emirate of Afghanistan and save the humane values from the claws of colonialism. Right now, the occupying forces are trampling down on human dignity, freedom, security and values under the farcical name of terrorism.
