In the name of Allah, the Merciful, the Compassionate
Statement of the Islamic Emirate of Afghanistan on
the 20th Anniversary of the flight of
the Invading Soviet Forces from Afghanistan
Rabi' al-awwal 01, 1431 A.H, Monday February 15, 2010
In the name of Allah, the Merciful, the Compassionate
Twenty years ago, on 15.2.1989, the Red Army of the
former Soviet Union fled our country with disgrace and failure after passage of
ten years from their invasion, terrors and showdown of muscles (in our country).
Though during the said ten years, the Red Army and their internal surrogates—the
Khalqis and Parchamites-- martyred more than 1.5 million Afghans; forced 6
million others to take refuge and wounded or detained hundreds of thousands of
Afghans. However, in the end, Govrbacheve, leader of the former Soviet Union,
referred to the invasion as “a bleeding cancerous wound”. The Red Army, under
the arrogant General Boris Gromove, pulled out of Afghanistan shamefully and
with complete flop after losing 15 thousand invading soldiers; with 50 thousands
more, being injured and 1400 either detained or lost without any trace.
In 1986, after coming to power, Goverbacheve gave one year to the army to prove
their upper hand in the war but when they failed to deliver because of the holy
Jihad of the Afghan Mujahid nation, the political and military leadership of the
former Soviet Union decided in November 1986 to withdraw their troops from
Afghanistan and used the Geneva Accords as a convincing pretext for the
pull-out.
Today, after twenty years from the Red Army withdrawal, Obama has given 18
months to Mc Crystal, US Chief General in Afghanistan, to prove that he can turn
the tide against the Islamic Emirate but the historical experiences of the
Mujahid Afghanistan and the ground realities indicate America is readily walking
on the step of the former Soviet Union. Surely, they will face fiasco after one
and half year as they are facing failure today.
Rationally, if the invading crusaders have not been able to subjugate the Afghan
Muslim Mujahid people by martyring, wounding and detaining more than one hundred
thousands Afghans during the past eight years, then how can they would be able
to subjugate them in the coming 16 months or through ostensible military
operations like the ones in areas as Marjah and Nad Ali.
The American and NATO rulers should know, if they need 15 thousands well-armed
troops to take only one district, then there are 350 districts in Afghanistan,
they would need 5,250,000 more troops to take them, whereas you are not able to
supply logistics even for the said 15 thousands troops.
Similarly, KGB believed that they will control Afghanistan within 3 months and
gave more budget to KHAD (intelligence Agency) than to the ministry of defense
of the former Khalqi regime, today America has allocated huge budget for the
Black Water, CIA and the Special Force to subjugate the Afghan people through
terrorizing them and maligning the good name of Mujahideen but these endeavors
already have been tried by the former Soviet Union in the recent history.
However, they utterly failed. The invading America is following their steps.
The showdown and arrogance of the invaders versus the Afghans have now lost
their splendor. The resistance and Jihad of our Muslim people against the
atrocities and coercion is a good lesson for all invaders. The moribund rulers
of the White House would find it more beneficial if they ponder over the
historic lesson instead of turning to a showdown of forces. Obama like
Gorbacheve needs to realistically view the ground realities in order to put an
end to tyrannizing and repressing the Afghans and further disgracing America.
While congratulating the Muslim and Mujahideen people and all the Islamic Ummah
on the collapse and disintegration of the communist empire thanks to the Islamic
Jihad of the Afghans, the Islamic Emirate of Afghanistan gives good news and
assurance to the heroic Afghan people that today’s arrogant America and their
war-mongering crusading coalition will meet the fate of the former Soviet Union
who were disgraced and routed.
The moribund Mc Crystal, like the defeated Boris Gromove, will admit his defeat
and rout by kowtowing before the Jihadic magnanimity and Islamic faith of the
Afghan people, if God willing.
“Those who have wronged, will know how terrible Return they will have (in the
Hereafter). (Al-Quran)
