America Must Learn A Lesson From The Former Soviet Union: The Afghan Still Ambiguous For US Officials
18 April 2018
By Al-Ikhwah Al-Mujahidun
Beyond any doubt, the current American colonial policy and war strategy is not
only a reason of loss in Afghanistan but is also a factor in the widespread
insecurities and chaos gripping regional stability and security. In addition
to that, it is also a path full of challenges and risks in terms of future
consequences and results for America.
Especially since Donald Trump has been elected as the President of United
States, problems and insecurities have multiplied in Afghanistan, the region
and the entire world generally. And this increase in problems shows that
America along with the entire force at its disposal has completely failed in
this ongoing illegitimate war, bringing Trump and his administration under
intense criticism by several members of the American Congress.
During the brutal invasion of Afghanistan, the American policy makers thought
that they would make Afghanistan their permanent colonized territory in a
matter of a few days and nights, and reap the benefits of geographical
position and strategic location of Afghanistan to frighten and terrify the
neighbouring countries of the region and make them accept their ideals without
questioning.
Due to the reason of that confidence, Americans took the matter of permanent
occupation of Afghanistan very lightly or in other terms, like stealing candy
from a baby. They only deployed 1300 soldiers in 2001 at the beginning of
invasion, but faced historic resistance by the people of Afghanistan. They
even asked for political and military aid from fifty countries including NATO
and at the height of their power, deployed a hundred thousand soldiers in the
2010, which inevitably faced the same consequences of failure and a large
number of soldiers were humiliatingly compelled to leave the country without
any remarkable success.
Yes! Today America and her allies still have tens of thousands of troops in
Afghanistan and their bombers are operating 24/7 in Afghanistan's airspace!
Mercilessly attacking the defenseless Afghan people, martyring dozens of
children, women and common civilians, but at the end of the day they are
facing the worst defeat in the battlefield, without gaining any strategic
achievements.
On the other hand - because of the presence of American military - the lives,
honor, and the prestige of Afghan people are not safe, harassment and
corruption has been reached its peak and the puppet regime officials are
drowned in corruption and misconduct up to their noses. The feudal warlords
have again returned as the waves sedition are moving swiftly inside the puppet
regime, which in general are the greatest proofs of American decline.
Furthermore, according to the international media, 70 percent of the Afghan
territory is controlled or influenced by the Taliban (Islamic Emirate) whereas
the regime that is standing on American military, economic and political
support, exerts authority over only 30% of the land. It is highly plausible
that in the near future the 30% regime authority will decreased steadily and
more areas will fall under the control of the Islamic Emirate and the
Mujahidin. In such a case the only reasonable solution to the Afghan dilemma
is to give a positive answer to the Taliban's latest letter so that America
may give up brutal bombings campaigns and understand the realities. And so
that it may begin believing in the importance of dialogue, to acknowledge the
status of Islamic Emirate of Afghanistan as a true representative of the free
people of Afghanistan. It is also imperative to know that even if America
continues to prolong the war for many more years in Afghanistan, they are
going to face the same destructive consequences that the Soviet expeditions
had previously faced. America should act sensibly, learn a lesson from the
Soviet experience and seriously begin thinking about withdrawing forces from
Afghanistan instead of intensifying and expanding the war in hopes of delaying
their defeat.
The Afghan situation still seems ambiguous for US officials
James Norman Mattis, United States Secretary of Defense, secretly arrived in
Afghanistan yesterday while the media was banned from reporting anything about
his trip to Afghanistan.
He literally came to Bagram in order to morally support the American troops
and local puppets on the failure and loss of Trump's war policies in
Afghanistan. Outwardly he stated to the media that his purpose of secretly
visiting Bagram in Afghanistan was that he received information about groups
of Taliban willing to surrender themselves to the Kabul government.
Besides the James N. Mattis' statement, some media networks have reported the
controversial statements of General Nicholson in which he says that this is an
opportunity for Taliban to accept Ashraf Ghani's offer, otherwise they will be
eliminated. He further added that in an effort to protect the residents of
Kabul and foreigners from the Taliban, they will make many more checkpoints
around the Kabul.
On the other hand, Donald Trump during his visit of a military base in the
United States yesterday also said: We will forcibly bring peace in the world,
we will eliminate those who resist and will win in Afghanistan. He added that:
I have completely empowered my commanders, with which they shall bring peace
to Afghanistan.
While hearing such statements of American invaders, it seem that they are
either unaware of the ground realities in Afghanistan or are deceiving
themselves. They utter such statements in both war and peace overtures,
further complicating the situation instead of resolving it. They still stress
on the intensification of war and increasing indiscriminate aerial attacks
even though they have not yielded any positive results after 17 years of
continuous war.
In particular, with the latest war strategy of the Trump, the whole world in
witnessing Mujahidin eliminating dozens of domestic and foreign soldiers in
various tactical attacks every day and are still taking =control of districts,
military bases, and military checkpoints from their enemy.
This series of Mujahedeen victories are taking place even before they
officially announce and begin their combat operations.
Secondly they make very ambiguous remarks in peace platforms and no sensible
person would believe in its rationality. Americans, instead of considering the
peaceful resolution presented by the Islamic Emirate of Afghanistan, are
churning out false rumors, stating that they have felt that some Taliban
groups have expressed willingness of submitting and surrendering to the Kabul
government.
Are these the kind of propaganda, intelligence and satanic plots through which
they seek to solve the Afghan problem? No, indeed. The actual fact is that
American officials are being deceived by Kabul administration, and if they
truly want to put an end to this war and stop oppressing the innocent Afghan
people, they have to consider and give serious thought to the reasonable
proposal of the Islamic Emirate, which was even acknowledged by Kai Aage Eide,
special representative of United Nations for Afghanistan, as he said : the
demand of Taliban to negotiate directly with America is rational and logical
as the military strategy is made in Washington, America. He added that America
has a broad and wide presence and interference in Afghanistan, and the current
Afghan administration came about as a result of the United States presence and
involvement in the affairs of Afghanistan.
But despite all these facts, American generals and political officials ignore
the facts and do not have the ability to see and understand the situation of
Afghanistan. If they emphasize on brutality, air raids and fighting alongside
the irrational statements, they should realize the historic fact that Afghans
have never surrendered to the foreign invading forces. They should not depend
on the cooperation of few sold-out puppets as they will inevitably be pulled
down into the dark hole of defeat along with their puppets, without having
anything to show for their loss of lives and treasure. And that is no great
matter for Allah.
