Zul Qadah 29, 1431 A.H, Sunday, November 07, 2010
In the Name of Allah, the Most Beneficent, the Most Merciful.
Media outlets, both at home and abroad, admitted that at the end of last week, on Thursday in the suburbs of Eastern province of Nangarhar, the Russian and American forces raided some heroin-producing factories, destroying some of them, according to their report.
It is not quite clear till now whether they really targeted the narcotics centers or carried out the attacks for some other common imperialistic objectives. The facts behind the foray into the centers, will come to the open later, but one thing is quite clear that for the last decade, the Americans have not only given themselves the right to commit every crime and cruelty but also provided opportunity to other countries to exploit the Afghan soil and resources for their military, political, economic and cultural interests and quests.
The Americans have allowed member states of their unholy alliance to pound Afghan villages and hamlets to evaluate their weapons; to test their bullets and rockets in order to know their range of destruction.
If some of the countries had the ambition to target the Afghan civilian by their tanks and helicopters; just for the sake of sport; they did repeatedly commit this brutal crime.
Countries that were fond of looting and plundering the mineral and other vital resources of Afghanistan, the Americans provided them the opportunity to build military bases and barracks over there.
Countries desiring to appoint their Afghan agents in the higher ranks of Kabul administration i.e. the so called parliament, the peace council etc; they did this with great impudence.
Countries longing for preaching Christianity and propagating obscenity and irreligiousness have carried it out openly.
Countries trying to import their culture and civilization to Afghanistan, these enemies of our Islamic and national culture have succeeded to a great extent.
It seems that now it is the Russians’ turn. To safeguard their regional and global interests from the claws of the Russians, the Americans opened the Afghan airspace for them and provided them the chance to participate preliminarily in the assault against narcotics.
The Russians should not have taken the audacity to violate the Afghan sanctuary; because in the eighties, when the former Soviet troops invaded Afghanistan and fought with their full strength and brutality for a decade, the result was quite clear, i.e. the collapse and disintegration of the former Soviet Union. It should have been an exemplary lesson for the present Russia.
Some analysts are of the opinion that the intention behind the recent co-operation is that Russians want the Americans not to evacuate earlier so that the American imperialism is also engraved in Afghanistan just like the former Soviet Union met the fate.
Whatever the objectives might be, the Islamic Emirate of Afghanistan strongly condemns the recent operation carried out by the Russians in the Achin district of Nangarhar province, and calls upon the Afghans to react strongly and focus on avenging themselves on Americans and their mercenaries for the recent operations.
