I might die for writing something like this but I can’t
stand this anymore.
I want to thank my friend Kim Asher who helped me by editing
and correcting my non-perfect English.
On Sep 13, 2011 the Haqqani network, which, having planned a
high profile attack in Kabul, carried it out to the letter. The group of either
6 or 7 insurgents took over an unfinished 14-story building west of Abdul Haq
Circle that overlooks the U.S embassy, ISAF HQ, and NDS HQ. The gun battle
started around 01:30 in the afternoon and continued on until late the next
morning. The total length of the gun battle was over 21 hours, during which all
the insurgents, 4 police and 9 civilians were killed and 8 police and 11
civilians were injured. I do not need to talk about the details of the fight
because the media has already covered it.
What I want to know, and am sure a lot of Afghan civilians do too, is how did they get in? How did they manage to carry that many weapons and that much ammunition all the way to the top floor with nobody seeing it? Forget that, how did they get into Kabul? Does anybody beside me think that officials in the ranks of ANSF and the Afghan Government were involved in helping the insurgents carry out their operation? I mean the attacks on the Ministry of Defense on the 18th of April 2011 and the Intercontinental on 28th of June 2011 were planned attacks that were probably researched, drawn-up and planned months in advance. None of those attacks could have happened without the help of officials from within the ranks of the Afghan government. This comes after the Transition in which ISAF gave the responsibility of Kabul and other provinces and cities, to ANSF. An ISAF spokesman, after the attack in Kabul on the 14th of September, said that the force believes ANSF are capable of carrying out the Transition and that there will be no going back. It is like giving a black hawk helicopter to a kid and saying "you can fly this."
Then on the 20th of September yet another attack in Kabul,
against the head of the peace council. In that attack, the head of Afghanistan
peace council and former president of Afghanistan of the Jihad era, before the
Taliban, was killed alongside 4 others. This clearly tells you the
capability of ANSF against the threats that face Afghanistan and specially
Kabul everyday. One of my friends wrote an article “Afghan ex-leader’s death
threatens peace” link http://www.globalpost.com/dispatch/news/war/afghanistan-war/110920/afghan-leader-president-burhanuddin-rabbani-hamid-karzai-taliban-attack-kabul.
Really? What peace?! We don’t have peace. We never had peace and until these
warmongers are alive we will never have peace.
Remember that these are the same warlords of yesterday who were
the cause of 10,000 rocket shells being fired on Kabul city each day, the cause
of more than 2 million deaths throughout Afghanistan, the cause of more than 5
million civilians fleeing the country, the cause of unmatched war and mayhem in
Afghanistan.
But nobody is brave enough to talk about it. Do we stand against
them and say “you need to be prosecuted and hanged for the crimes you have
committed against the Afghan population”? No. Instead, yesterday’s war and
massacre of the Afghan people is called “Jihad wa Muqawimat” which translates
as “holy war and resistance”. Really? Holy war & Resistance against whom?
What factions of the infidels were you fighting against at that moment?
Russians? They left! Americans? They left too.
No. You were fighting for power and who gets what. When the
Russians left, instead of caring about the nation and deciding to elect whoever
can run the country and do the job best, you started fighting each other and
killing hundreds of thousands of people in the process, leaving the country in
turmoil.
When somebody stands up and is brave enough to say that you
are a criminal and a murderer - which is the truth - you declare them a
communist; an infidel that needs to be killed.
On 17 September 2003, Malalai Joya, a brave Afghan female
Parliamentarian from Farah province, stood up at the Grand Assembly to tell the
truth and request that leaders present at the assembly, who were mostly war
criminals, be prosecuted for their crimes against humanity instead of
representing Afghan people in the assembly. War criminals, who destroyed
Afghanistan, declared her to be an infidel and a communist and removed her from
the assembly because she refused to apologize for the truth she had presented.
Warlords have used religion to justify everything, including
every crime they have committed for decades, and still do. Anybody who stands
against them will be killed.
When Karzai lead the transition in 2001, he said that all war
criminals will be prosecuted, but not only did that not happen, his entire
cabinet is made of war criminals and thugs who are thirsty for the blood of
Afghan people.
Billions of dollars have been literally dumped into Afghanistan
but at least 80% of that money has either been stolen by these so-called
leaders or been used in areas of their interest. I know that by now the
world is tired of having carried Afghanistan for so long; they have spent
billions of dollars and they see no progress being made because Afghan
officials are corrupt and all the aid money being dumped into this country goes
into the pockets of dirty politicians who have done nothing but destroy this
country in decades past and will do for decades in the future if they see
benefits for them in it.
Afghanistan has trillions of dollars in natural resources, but
little or no work has been done to use those resources to build the
country.
I am sure 99% of the leaders of Afghanistan do not think past
today and only of how to rob the people of Afghanistan of whatever they still
have left.
Message to Mr. Karzai: Forming special commissions to get rid of
corruption in government bodies will not resolve anything if the lead man (you)
and the people close to him (Khalili, Fahim, Sayaaf, Mujjaddadi, etc) are up to
their necks in corruption.
50% of the population (women) in Afghanistan are not even considered human, let alone equal, and nothing has been done to help them participate in society.
Women in this society do not have a voice or any rights. Every
filthy, disgusting, crazy moron on the street, who has no right to do so,
harasses woman like it is their birthright and leaders who speak about
democracy and equal rights have done nothing but provoke people to continue
with such despicable behavior. The very forces that are here to defend the
rights of citizens (men and women) harass woman, so what hope is there for this
country and its future?
Know this, you insecure idiots: unless you give that 50% their
birthright to not just live, but also participate fully in this society, you
and this country will NEVER make it.
Government seats are given to tribes, according to their
percentage of the population, for the balance of power. THAT IS NEVER and WILL
NEVER BE THE SOLUTION.
The best man or woman for the job should be elected according to
their abilities, NOT allocated seats because of their gender, ethnicity, tribe
or religion, but no one in the grip of power seems to understand this or they
just simply ignore it.
Religion and Politics cannot work together. If we (Afghans) want
our country to be peaceful, developed and united, we need to forget what race,
tribe, religion, background, gender we are and work as one (AFGHAN).
