Message of Felicitation of the Esteemed Amir ul Momineen on the Eve of Eid ul-Adha.

In the Name of Allah, the Most Merciful, the Most Compassionate

Praise be to Allah Who honored His pledge and granted victory to His servant and exalted His army and lonely defeated all armed confederates. Peace be on the leader of Mujahideen and chief of the Messengers, owner of lofty behavior, our master and prophet, Mohammad and on his descendants and all his companions.

The Almighty Allah says in the Holy Quran:

(Such (is his state): and whoever holds in honor the Rites of Allah, (in the sacrifice of animals)

Such (honor) should come truly from Piety of heart.

In them, ye have benefits for a term appointed:

In the end, their place of sacrifice is near the Ancient House." S. 22:32-33

I extend my heartfelt felicitation:

-To all Mujahid people of Afghanistan,

- To the esteemed families of martyrs and prisoners who have been imprisoned by the enemy,

- To the gallant Mujaheddin,

-And to all believing masses of the Islamic Ummah on the occasion of this Eidul Odha.

I pray to Allah (SwT) to always bestow on this Ummah, the blessing of celebration of Eid ul Odha while they are dignified and having independence and grant them happiness, prosperity and success in these blessed days. Likely, I pray to Allah (SwT) to accept the pilgrimage of the pilgrims and accept in His Sight their worship and prayers. I also pray to Him to make this congregation (of Muslims), a factor for the unity of the whole Ummah.

While extending to you my felicitation on the eve of Eid ul Odha, I want to touch on some essential issues as regards the current situation:

1. To The Mujahid Nation:

I thank my Muslim people for their positive response to the Call of the Islamic Emirate (of Afghanistan) and for their foiling the American melodrama by avoiding participation in the American process under the name of elections. I firmly believe, if the Mujahid people remain constant in their multi-sided and honest help (with Mujahideen), the Almighty Allah will expose and thwart all conspiracies of the enemy one after another. It is due to your selfless sacrifices that the arrogant enemy is facing both defeat, jittery and disgrace. I hope you will continue your legitimate Jihad and struggle in the way of realizing your Islamic aspirations; help the sacrificing Mujahideen of the path of freedom and strengthen their ranks with your persons and wealth, particularly, show your protection and empathy with the blessed families of the martyrs and prisoners on the basis of your Islamic responsibility and break off all relations with the stooge Kabul Administration.

Those who have occupied our country and taken our people as hostage, want to use the stratagem of negotiation like they used the drama of elections for some time in order to achieve their colonialist objectives. The invaders do not want negotiation aimed at granting independence to Afghanistan and ending their invasion but they want negotiation which will prolong their evil process of colonization and occupation. However, the people of Afghanistan will not agree to negotiation which prolongs and legitimatizes the invaders military presence in our beloved country. Afghanistan is our home. No one will ever be ready to negotiate with any one else about ownership of one’s home --still more to give share in administration and control of the home and himself ends up becoming homeless, powerless and servant in his own home.

The foreigners have occupied the land of the Afghans by dent of (military) might and savagery. If they want solution of the issue, they should put an end to the occupation of Afghanistan. The invading Americans want Mujahideen to surrender under the pretext of the negotiation. This is some thing impossible. Otherwise, we have noble principles and vast experiences for solution of our internal differences and commencement of good conduct with the people of the world. Therefore, the stand of the Islamic Emirate of Afghanistan as regards the negotiation emanates from our Islamic and national interests and is based on strong grounds.

2. To the Gallant and Honor-loving Mujahideen of the Front lines!

Your victory over the invading disbelievers is the result of the Divine help. If you seek His pleasure, as a gratitude to the blessing of Allah (SwT), and make the service of common people your objective, Allah (Swt) will bestow on you His ever growing blessing. The enemy will lose their hearts and you will have the honor to defeat the greatest colonialist power of this century. The signs (of this victory) have been appearing, if God willing.

Implement the injunctions of Allah practically and fully; constantly strive for unity among your ranks and keep away from discord and friction. Obey your chiefs in all affairs of Jihad; pay heed to the protection of public and national properties during the conduct of military operations, particularly during martyrdom-seeking operations, focus on the invaders and their lackeys and other important targets. It is the Islamic responsibility of every believing man to avoid causing casualty to common people. There is no justification in Sharia for murder and injury of common people, nor is there any room for such deed in our sacred religion.

The cunning enemy wants to attack people’s congestion places like religious centers, mosques and other similar places in order to malign Mujahideen. They also launch sanguinary attacks under the name of martyrdom-seeking operations to mar the good name of Mujahideen. The Mujahideen should be on guard against these activities of the enemy and fully avoid from carrying out any analogous activity. Well-being and prosperity of people should make your priority. Pay respect to elders and influential among the people and have compassion over the youngsters. Observe true justice when you are authorized to dispense to a deserving person his due right. Implement the Regulation of the Code of Conduct of the Islamic Emirate and observe other principles in order to ensure achievement of ever-increasing advancement in the affairs of Jihad. Make the most of experience, consultation and proven tactics in the military operations and other affairs of Jihad so that you will block the door of differences, complaints and losses. Similarly, take every precaution for the protection of your persons and make efforts in this way. Take care of the rights of those who surrender to you from the enemy side. This process (of surrendering to Mujaheddin) is now continuing.

The (former) communists formed tribal and unscrupulous groups under the name of tribal militia at a time when they were on the verge of defeat. The aim was to provoke internal conflicts, biases, racial differences and resultantly revenge themselves on (our) Mujahid people. The Americans and their allies too want to repeat the same failed experience. I am of the opinion that the recent efforts launched by the enemy will further malign it and will meet its defeat but you should make every effort to foil this last conspiracy of the enemy with the help of your Mujahid people. Mete out an exemplary punishment to those who are leading these mischief-making activities so that the dark and notorious history of the barbaric militias does not recur anew.

3. To the Ruler’s and Employees of the Puppet Administration of Kabul:

Stop oppressing and torturing your miserable Muslim people as a sign of your service and slavery to the non-believing invaders. The foreign invaders are not benefactors of the Afghan people. They are bent on wiping out the belief and holy places of this people and want to bring under their belly all our material wealth. They use the empty slogans of development and reconstruction of Afghanistan for realization of their illegitimate objectives. They have stashed away thousands of millions of dollars in their pockets which they had collected in the name of reconstruction of Afghanistan.

They want to keep our country entangled in a net of usury and interest according to a calculated conspiracy and are determined to subjugate our distinguished people.

I call on you all as I did last time and as per my responsibility, to put an end to your life of humiliation; shun hostility with your people and join the Mujahideen in the strongholds of pride, honor and belief instead of continuing with your present life of debasement. The enemy want to lay his gun over your shoulder and kill your countrymen but you should try, and by utilizing a proper opportunity, should rescue yourself from the fate of the pro-Britain Shah Shuja, pro-Russian Taraki, Amin , Karmal, Najib and their followers. If you honestly part ways with the evil, you will have success in this world and in the world to come.

You should understand that the epoch of dread of the Western colonialism has reached its end. Ground realities in our beloved country indicate that the invaders are about to escape. The caravan of truth is steadily approaching its rationale destination of victory. Mujahideen gain strength with the passage of time as they obtain good experience in political, media, and social fields. The invaders and their stooges’ moribund efforts are tantamount to erecting a mound of sand in front of the turbulent river of the Jihadic movement. These waves of resistance which have been originated from the midst of the honor-loving nation will wash away the torsos of the arrogant invaders, if God willing.

4.To Islamic Conference and the So-called Human Rights Organizations:

I call on the Islamic Conference and all organizations that have been established under the name of human rights protection to take steps for the prevention of civilian casualties caused by the invading forces of America and the coalition and should raise voice for the punishment of the perpetrators of this crime. Similarly, the invading forces under the leadership of America and the surrogate regime of Kabul have erected prisons under different names in all parts of the country in contravention to international principles. A great number of our miserable and innocent countrymen are brutally tortured there. All human rights organizations who claim being advocates of human rights should promptly and as per their responsibility, take steps to prevent occurrence of such brutal acts. Many of our prisoners have been martyred and maimed as a result of harsh conduct and torture in these prisons. If the human rights organizations are not willing to fulfill their responsibility in order to please America and the West, then they should renounce their title of human rights advocacy as a matter of moral obligation.

5. To Scholars, Writers and Men of Letters.

I urge independent scholars, teachers and statesmen to raise the legitimate cause of their miserable people in every hearing and forum and support it. Inform the countrymen and public of the world about the ground realities in Afghanistan through your write-ups and speeches. By waging a Jihad of words and pen, render thanks for the gift of talents bestowed on you by God. I call on all distinguished writers and journalists to play their due role in this critical juncture of our history when our land is under the blatant aggression. They should struggle in the field of media for the obtainment of independence of our Islamic country and a true Islamic system and, as per their responsibility, portray the impeachable facts so that they reach the ears of the public. With the power of belief and an unflinching ardor, make struggle to tell and unveil the truth.

I also urge the committed and sensible poets to preserve the Jihadic epics and acts of heroism of Mujahideen in their poems and literary pieces and generate emotions for independence, honor , national unity and Islamic resurgence. Not only that but further bolster them.

6. To Regional and Neighboring Countries:

Colonialist plans of expansionism of the West are in full swing in the region. The economic assistance, the mercenaries, the overt and covert ploys of the wicked companies have paved the way for (execution of these plans) and have set off hatred, discrimination and rivalries in the region.

In fact, this is an act against the humane values, justice, peace, rules of interstate relations and independence. If the regional countries still remain neutral versus the colonialist interventions of America and the vast military presence, the whole regional will be gripped by instability; the process of development will hamper and ultimately (the region) will become powerless.

We emphatically say that the strong determination and unwavering resistance (of Mujahideen) has eroded the capability of the enemy; has wiped out (their) shock and awe era and frustrated their wicked plans. Therefore, as a sign of gratitude for the sacrifices offered by our oppressed people, you should assist us in the cause of freedom of our country. The Islamic Emirate of Afghanistan wants to take constructive measure together with all countries for mutual cooperation, economic development and good future on the basis of mutual respect.

We consider the whole region as a common home against colonialism and, as a responsible force, want to play our role in stability and peace of the region in future.

7. To the Rulers of the White House and the Belligerent Americans:

The ground realities in Afghanistan indicate, the Americans and other allied invaders will certainly face a route --this is a defeat which can’t be averted by reinforcement and formulation of successive irrational strategies. You should understand that coercion and militarism has lost its splendor. You will not be able to subjugate the brave Afghan people with the power of your military might or the mantra of your devilish ploys.

The people, whom you have chosen for confrontation, have the honor of dismantling the arrogant empires. They have good capability and historical experience. Our believing people will not allow the Western colonialism to make our country a hotbed against our independence and vital values and aggressive designs against regional countries. These are the people who before you, have wiped out two empires – the British and Russians empires-- from the map of the world. They are holding the stronghold of honor and Jihad with strong determination and high morale against the demoralized and moribund troops. And on the basis of their belief, they are sure that they will gain victory and you will face defeat.

It is better for you to choose the path of rationale instead of militarism and put an end to the occupation of Afghanistan. You should understand your belligerent and aggressive policy will create for you so many enemies in the world which would make for you this world a bed of thorns. It will make your life harsh because the policy of coercion and tyranny is intolerable to all.

8. To the Public of Europe Particularly To the Freedom-loving People of the West:

Your colonialist rulers have invaded our country under the pretext of terrorism to augment the wealth of a few capitalists and spread the net of neo-colonialism over our country.

Every day, our youths, old men, women and children are martyred by your bombs and rounds of mortars. The invaders raid houses of our people at night. They destroy our green gardens, public properties, educational and commercial centers.

Countering this atrocity and aggression and the defense against it, is our legitimate and national right. We will use this right of ours with all our resources and sacrifices.

You should not fall prey to the misleading assertions of your colonialist rulers as they call this war, a war of necessity. This is a farce weapon in the hands of your rulers under the colonialist pretext of fight against terrorism. Thus they want to throw dust into the eyes of people. It is the demand of your conscience and moral duty to raise your voice for the prevention of this savagery.

We only want establishment of an Islamic system in our country which will protect rights of all individuals of this nation both men and women—a system depending on its own feet, fully independent, its internal and external policy being based on this Islamic principle: not harming others and not allowing others to harm us.

Fight against terrorism is an unjustified colonialist term fabricated by Pentagon and Washington. They want to colonize independent countries by using this proposition and bring under their belly natural riches and economic resources of these countries and trample on belief and religious traditions of these countries.

9. To the Islamic Ummah:

I remind Muslim brothers in every part of the world, of the words of Hazarat Omar Farouq (May Allah be pleased with him), the Great Caliph of Islam who said: "We are people whom Allah exalted by Islam. If we still seek exaltation in things other than Islam, Allah will humiliate us."

I advise you to fully abide by the sacred rules of Islam in order to achieve the magnanimity and grandeur of Islam. Help (your) oppressed Muslim brothers and use your wisdom, sagacity and sobriety in the cause of Jihad and confrontation with the tyrant aggressors, particularly, the chiefs of the Jihadic movements should ponder over all aspects during performance of affairs of Jihad; avoid disunity and splintering among your ranks and be heedful to the conspiracies being engineered to malign Mujahideen.

Avoid from deeds that cause great losses to Islam and Muslims instead of bringing in benefits to the Muslims. Focus your efforts on beating the invading, usurping enemy; do not engage in purposeless activities, rather turn your attention to the main objective.

All Muslims should remember in their prayers, the Mujaheddin-- the protectors of Islam and Islamic Ummah-- and extend them moral and Islamic support and should defend their cause as a legitimate Islamic cause. The Americans and its allies have been hammering out plans overtly and covertly to destabilize the Islamic world and provoke differences in the Islamic countries. Every Muslim should realize his/her arch enemy and be on guard against the conspiracies of the enemies.

To end, I remind all my Muslim brothers of this Divine verse (bearing) good news (of victory):

"Or do ye think that ye shall enter the Garden (of Bliss)

Without such (trials) as came to those who passed away before you?

They encountered suffering and adversity,

And were so shaken in spirit that even the Messenger

And those of faith who were with him Cried:

"When (will come) the help of Allah"

Ah! Verily, the help of Allah is (always) near!"

Al-baqara: V.124.

Islamic Emirate of Afghanistan

Dhu al-Qi'dah 11, 1430 A.H, October 30, 2009

In the name of Allah, the Merciful, the Compassionate

After long waiting of one month and dithering about American reinforcement in Afghanistan, it has been unveiled by Carl Levin, Chairman of the Armed Services Committee in the US Senate that Obama wants to get a by-law passed through this committee that would allow giving money and other financial aids to some members of Taliban in order to encourage them part way with the current armed resistance.

We would like to tell Obama that this is an old weapon that has failed already. The British invaders used it in the 19th century but failed; the former Soviet Union used it, it failed too. The Afghan Mujahid people and the Mujahideen at the front lines have vast experiences of the past three decades in this regard and know all tactics used by the enemy.

Seeing that you failed to win the war with the help of your cutting-edge and sophisticated technology; considering that your media failed to make any ground; bearing in mind that your allies are seeking ways to leave the field and that your internal gunmen are not able even to defend themselves; realizing that your newly-formulated policies face failure one after another, then how you would be able to gain success by resorting to this devilish tactic while our people are already aware of the essence of such tactic.

Similarly, considering this decision as a sign of weakness and complete despondency of the enemy, the Islamic Emirate of Afghanistan announces the following points for the moribund rulers of the While House:

1. All Mujahideen of the Islamic Emirate of Afghanistan have been waging Jihad against the Americans and other invaders on the basis of an obligation of their belief and ideas. The terms of moderate (Taliban) and extremists are American-invented terms, which have no physical existence.

2. The Mujahideen of the Islamic Emirate of Afghanistan are not mercenaries and employed gunmen like the armed men of the invaders and their surrogates. Contrarily, the Mujahideen have been carrying out this Jihad for obtainment of independence of the country and establishment of a Sharia system there. This war will come to an end when all invaders leave our country and an Islamic government based on the aspirations of our people is formed in the country.

3. We remind Obama and all rulers of the White House to avoid wasting your time on ways which are not pragmatic but focus on ways, which provide a down-to-earth and realistic solution to this issue. Pull all your forces out of our prideful country and put an end to the game of colonialization by shedding the blood of innocent Muslim people under the unjustified name of terrorism.

4. The Islamic Emirate of Afghanistan warns the rulers of the White House that the huge military expenditure that you shoulder to maintain your military presence in Afghanistan and carry out operations and implement other failed strategies will only deepen your economic crisis and will harm your international reputation. Your people will face more problems and suffer from psychological diseases. You should know that the Afghans laugh at your irrational decision and unpractical strategies.

5. The American rulers should not think that all heroic Afghan nation is like the few well-known Afghan Americans who sell their country and who have received training in the CIA cells for many years. Here in this country, selling one’s country quid pro qu money and government slot is not only a crime according to Islam but also a historical taunt and infamy. Traditionally, it is a shameful act, which is unforgivable. If you do not believe this, then have a glance at the history of Shah Shuja and Babrak Karmal and his cronies, the surrogates of the former Soviet Union. Study what status they had in the eye of the Afghan masses. The Afghans, particularly, the Mujahideen do not want to solve their economic problems of daily life with the donations and other material aids of the intelligence networks of colonialism.

This pious and patriotic people have offered tremendous material and soul sacrifices in the way of their sacred objectives. The Mujahideen have not chosen this path of strife between the truth and the evil to obtain some material goals. They have lofty Islamic and nationalist aims. This war will only end when these goals are achieved. Inshaallah.

Americans, in the Face of the Afghans Sensitivities

Afghan Resistance Statement
Emotion to Americans In Face of the Tide of the Afghans' Sensitivities
Islamic Emirate of Afghanistan

November 20, 2009

Nicolas Christopher, a well-known columnist of the New York Times has expressed his concern about the surge of 40,000 troops to Afghanistan. He showed his dismay in his Column in New York Times on October 22. According to him, the troops increase will provoke reaction from the Afghans which will lead to creating more sensitivities among the Afghan movements.

He argues that in the past, the presence of foreign troops in America provoked resentments of our forefathers, considering them as invaders. They were never ready to accept them as protectors of people. He adds, then the Britain could not perceive the scope of the resentments of our forefathers, nor they understood that we were the real owners of the land. The more the Britain resorted to oppressing us, the more our resistance increased. This is an experience that provides for us a good lesson about the sensitivities of other people regarding foreign forces.

Nicolas Christopher says, we fought in Afghanistan twice more than the time we spent fighting in World War II. Our expenditure now reaches $60 billion per year. But still we have not understood the essence of the current resistance, nor have we paid heed to the patriotic feelings of the Afghans in our calculations.

If we presume that reinforcement of 40,000 soldiers, at least requires $ 10 billion annually, then we can say, it is enough to provide expenditure of kindergarten of two million American children. In the long run, what is in our interest, the money to be spent for the well-being in America or just send our youths to war in Afghanistan which is not worth fighting.

Christopher believes, Afghanistan will never become a brilliant democracy.

The opinion expressed by the American writer indicates that there are still Americans who know the depth of the Afghan issue and the sensitivities of the Afghans as regards the Americans and America. This is in a time the American troops are bent on using their total might against the Afghans and ironically, the massacring of mankind now has become part and parcel of their character.

Why the Americans are not ready to call their military presence in Afghanistan as invasion and occupation of the country while they themselves called the British military presence in America as invasion?

Like Christopher, the Afghans too ask why we should consider the Americans and Western forces as our protectors whereas they murder our children, women and old men and why should not call them as invaders?

This is an open secret that the Afghans are highly sensitive to the American troops and they hate them more than they hated the Russian’s. The 68,000 American brutal troops are cutting the throat of our freedom with a blunt knife and they have unleashed bloodshed in the country. If they increase the number of their troops, say, if they send the requested 40,000 troops, it will prove that the Americans want to permanently stay in Afghanistan. It will mean that they have come to Afghanistan to occupy it for ever and this will strengthen the tides of resistance against the invaders. Those Afghans who do not know the realities in our country and have been deceived by the daydreams of reconstructions and financial grants will realize to bolster the ranks of the wayfarers of the way of Jihad. They will become like a popular stronghold of steel against the cunning invading troops.

This is obvious that the people who have common faith and ideology and grown up on the same soil, will not accept the presence of foreigners on the basis of their natural traditions. The history speaks for the sacrifices offered by them and the war fought by them in the cause of freedom.

It will not be possible that the invaders occupy their land under any pretext and ploy and ostensibly extend them a hand of friendship.

Expectedly, the invading troops must wait a strong reaction of the people--a country-wide upheaval-- which will send jittery into the enemy ranks and they will not be able to find an outlet to escape. Every son of this land of the Mujahideen will revive the epics and adventures of their Mujahid forefathers. They will take up their traditional arms and swords and fall on the retreating enemy to take the revenge.

The Help of Allah (SwT)

Afghan Resistance Statement
The Help of Allah (SwT)
Islamic Emirate of Afghanistan

November 17, 2009

The current Jihad against the American occupation of Afghanistan proves that oppressed Muslim people can, with the help of Allah, overcome the most advanced and huge army of the world. Look at the facts and figures. There are 40,000 troops from 43 countries of the world, both NATO members and others. America has 68,000 soldiers in Afghanistan.

The puppet regime of Kabul has 80,000 police force and almost the same number army. In addition to this, Pentagon has formed tens of thousands of local militias and armed former warlords who escort their logistical convoys from one province to another and launch joint operations. All these fight against a minuscule number of Mujahideen. But they have failed to prevent the Mujaheddin's constant victories who now control 80% of Afghanistan soil. No doubt, this is a sign of the help of Allah (SwT) as indicated in the Holy Quran that a small band of people who stand by truth can defeat a large force of evils. We should also bear in mind that the police force, the army and the intelligence agencies of the neighboring countries and of the world are at the disposal of the American invaders who help them with all their might.

Initially, the enemy being arrogant and banking on its military arsenal thought that it would easily wipe out the Mujahideen and spread its tentacles over the world. By cashing in on the opportunity provided by the 9/11, the British neo-colonialists jumped to the field. They had planned that they would work as brain because of their past experience and America as arm in this new adventure to colonize Middle East, Central Asia and Southeast Asia. They knew there was no other super power in the world except America and this had created an opening which they wanted to use for their own benefit by implementing their global expansionist goals.

Under the empty slogans of democracy and fight against terrorism, they killed hundreds of thousand of innocent Muslim people in Afghanistan and Iraq. They committed the most blatant human rights violations in Bagram, Kandahar, Abu Gharib and Guantanamo jails. Many detainees who later proved to be innocent common people were tortured by CIA and its hired private interrogators. Even some of them were kept in unknown CIA cells in foreign countries which were notoriously reputed for human rights violations. The detainees were forced to stand naked for hours; they were beaten and water boarded. Even American soldiers desecrated holy literature including the Holy Quran. Those released say, such blasphemous incidents occurred in Kandahar airport and Guantanamo jails.

But all these wrongdoing and injustice could neither wipe out the resistance nor suffocate them. Contrarily, these atrocities created new enemies for the invaders and bolstered the spirit of resistance among people.

Recently, they are resorting to some other devilish tactics, like detonating bombs and mines in congested places where common people are shopping. This is a heinous effort by CIA-related agencies like Blackwater in order to create hatred among the common people against Mujahideen. Blackwater was renamed Xe after its flagrant human rights violations in Iraq. Now it is killing innocent Muslims in Afghanistan and neighboring countries through mysterious bomb explosions. In Iraq, these foreign agencies destroyed Mosques and Shiite shrines in order to flare up sectarian violence. Some times, they succeeded in their wicked aims. In addition to this, they destroy bridges, schools and then accuse Mujahideen of doing that.

The occupying troops as partners of the intelligence agencies turn schools into military outposts to provoke Mujahideen to attack them. Then they show on TV that the Mujaheddin have destroyed the schools and that they are against knowledge and education. However, it is a crime in the first place to use educational facilities like school buildings for military purposes. When the enemy turns clinics and schools into security outposts and open fire on Mujahideen from these places, they no more remain school buildings but automatically become military targets.

The Mujahideen Regulation about the code of conduct strictly requires them to avoid damaging public properties like schools and other common facilities. According to this Regulation, the first aim of Jihad is to ensure sovereignty and safety of honor, property and life of common people. However, these facts are not reported in the media because they report what the colonialists and the invaders want them to do. When we want to unveil the truth and reach our voice to the public of the world, the so-called protectors of democracy and freedom of speech block our websites and spread lies against us. The world should know what the so-called protectors of human rights are doing is not democracy but terrorism under the guise of civilization. They efface the values that the humanity has achieved after a long struggle.

The Aims of Mujahideen

Afghan Resistance Statement
The Aims of Mujahideen
Islamic Emirate of Afghanistan

November 14, 2009

As an Islamic liberation force, the Mujahideen of the Islamic Emirate represent aspirations of the Afghan masses who want to free themselves from the claws of colonialism. This is the only force, the people look to for realization of their noble aims.

Therefore, to live up to the expectation of the people, the Mujahideen’s objectives are clear. They want to establish an Islamic system based on justice and equality and gain independence of the country where the Afghans will be owners of their own country and fate. Education, spiritual and material uplift and reconstructions are other aims of the Islamic Emirate. It has declared time and again that it will implement these goals upon gaining independence. However, the intelligence agencies of the invading countries and the biased media are trying to mar the good name of Mujahideen. Under the notorious name of terrorism, they want to create hatred among the people against the true sons of this land (Afghanistan). Even some time, these agencies resort to perpetrating gruesome crimes like explosions in congested places where hundreds of innocent people lose their lives. Some time, they flare up sectarian violence as per the old divide and rule formula of colonialism. Then, they accuse Mujahideen of being involved these crimes. The Mujahideen are free from all such charges. No Mujahid will ever want to kill an innocent Muslim or Muslima.

But the biased media constantly publish the official story and the people under the influence of the partial reports are confused and some time, misjudge the events because they do not know to tell facts from lies. On the other hand, the mainstream media do not publish the stand of Mujahideen regarding every event, fearing the invading Americans will accuse them of helping the so-called terrorists. In fact, the world has now been taken hostage by the media suffocation unleashed by the colonialism.

Pentagon has a psychological war department. This department is charged with spreading lies against Mujahideen. They spend millions of dollars to make it possible that the lies fabricated in Pentagon reach every ear in the world. They pay high sum of money to journalists who is ready to publish maligning stories against Mujahideen. According to a media report, a CIA cell in one of the neighboring countries of Afghanistan pay a journalist $1000 for a story against Mujahideen. They put on air dramas aimed at marring the image of Mujahideen. Ironically, the colonialists have taken this war from the battle fields to the fields of media, labor unions, business circles and scholar forums. So they should be confronted in all these fields.

Those journalists who are committed to human dignity, liberation, and justice should form Mujahideen Support Groups and wage an unwavering and constant campaign against the black propaganda launched by the colonialists because in the final analysis, this is not the war of Taliban. This is the war of all freedom-loving and justice-loving people all over the world who want to live as free people without the sword of colonialism hanging over their heads in this 21st century.

Taliban Establish Rival Government in Nuristan

After US Pullout, Taliban Appoints Officials
Jason Ditz

November 13, 2009

In a sign that the Taliban’s de facto control over the Nuristan Province is becoming more and more formal, one of the commanders of the group’s forces in the province says the Taliban is setting up a rival government.

According to Dost Mohammed, the commander in question, the group has established its own judiciary and is appointing administrative officials, and it setting about to provide basic needs to the remote province’s residents.

The US abandoned Nuristan more or less in its entirety after an early October attack against its last two outposts in the province left eight soldiers killed. Officials maintained that they were planning to abandon the outposts anyhow.

But when the US left the outposts, they also ended virtually their entire presence in the province, with only a handful of soldiers left behind to protect the provincial governor. If the Taliban’s government gains traction, the governor may quickly become irrelevant.

Helmand, still the same as before

Afghan Resistance Statement
Helmand, still the same as before
Islamic Emirate of Afghanistan

This year, the Helmand, a province located in the south of Afghanistan, became target of gruesome attacks of the British and American invaders. American troops sent to Afghanistan as per the new strategy of Obama were deployed in this province as a part of an effort by the American rulers to bolster the sagging morale of the despondent British soldiers there.

Before launching the offensive against Mujahideen in Helmand province, American media started their own media war. They called the operation, the largest military operations ever launched by US marines after the Vietnam War and claimed that it would wipe out all Mujahideen in the area under a take, hold and build strategy. Various helicopters and fighter planes swarmed to Helmand, including military tanks, armed personnel carriers, Humvees heading to some districts like Khan shin, Nad Ali, Garam Sir, Gereshk and to surrounding areas of Lashkar Gah, the provincial capital.

According to a tactical plan worked out by Mujahideen, they (Mujahideen) retreated from certain areas to encourage the enemy forces enter these areas where they were soft targets for the Mujahideen. When the enemy soldiers scattered in the far-flung areas, they were trapped, increasing their casualties with each passing day. Simultaneously, the tempo of the Western media fanfare about this campaign tapered down because they were not ready to report the high fatality that their soldiers were suffering at the hand of the Mujahideen every day. To many, it may be still a mystery that why the western media is tightlipped about the Helmand. However, the British and American soldiers based in Helmand know the answer to this question who see their daily casualties with their own eyes.

In north of Helmand, all the districts, which were in the hands of Mujahideen before the beginning of the operations, are still in their hands. In the south where the operations were concentrated, the writ of Mujahideen has been restored in Khanshin, Marji and Garam Sir districts. The enemy was able to build a military base in a desert there but now they are not able to procure their logistics through lands routes. They have to depend solely on air transportations for logistical items. In Nad Ali, they were forced to evacuate the base, which they had formed at the start of the offensive. In Garam Sir, they are trying to beef up their former bases. No new base has been built there.

The British soldiers occupied some areas in Babaji, Pashak and the White Mosque but they were not able to retain them for long time in face of the constant attacks by the Mujahideen. So they withdrew from all these areas. The main problem of the enemy is logistical supply. When their tanks and logistical vehicles come out of their military bases for patrol and logistical supplies, they become easy targets for Mujahideen. On the other hand, the roadside bombs take a high toll of the enemy, making roads a graveyard for them. Therefore, they use transportation planes for the supply of logistics instead of using the land routes.

In short, in Helmand, the new strategy of the American top general in Afghanistan, Mc Crystal has faced a complete failure. The operations Sword and Panther’s Claw did not achieve what the invaders wanted to achieve.

The defeat of the invading foreign forces proves that the military approach chosen by the invaders as a strategy is not paying off. They will have to ponder over other options like withdrawal from Afghanistan and granting the Afghans their natural rights of independence and formation of an Islamic government of their choice. Otherwise, their economy and society will bleed like the former Soviet Union which disintegrated after occupying Afghanistan for ten years.
