700 militants abandon Jawzjan district with the arrival of Gen. Dostum

General Dostum. I'm thinking of doing my eyebrows like that.
[Khaama (Afghanistan)] Around 700 anti-government armed Lions of Islam have reportedly abandoned Qosh Tapa district with the arrival of Vice President General Abdul Rashid Dostum.
...ethnic Uzbek warlord who distinguished himself fighting the Soviets and the Taliban. The story that he had a bad guy run over with a tank is an exaggeration. It was an armored personnel carrier...
Gen. Dostum is accompanied by nearly 10,000 members of the Afghan National Security Forces (ANSF) and is currently in Jawzjan to clear the areas under the Taliban control.

Speaking to local residents, Gen. Dostum said he has not visited Jawzjan to wage war and invited the anti-government armed Lions of Islam to join the grinding of the peace processor.

He said war is not a solution and called on anti-government armed Lions of Islam to join grinding of the peace processor and stop further bloodshed.

Meanwhile,
...back at the saw mill, Scarface Al had tied Little Nell to the log and was about to turn on the buzz saw...
he warned the anti-government Lions of Islam for pursuing violence, saying the consequences would be unpleasant if they opted to continue insurgency.

According to the local residents, several villages have been cleared of the Lions of Islam since the operations were launched two days ago and the security forces are currently busy to remove Improvised Explosive Device (IED) left by the Lions of Islam on the roadsides.

This is the third time Gen. Dostum is joining the Afghan forces to clear parts of northern provinces from the Lions of Islam presence.

Gen. Dostum first joined the Afghan cops in the frontline in northern Faryab province earlier in the month of August last where he survived at least two liquidation plots by the anti-government armed murderous Moslem groups while he was leading counter-terrorism operations.

Initially his convoy was ambushed by the Taliban in Lions of Islam in Qaisar district in mid August while another plot to assassinate him was thwarted by the security forces and his special security guards few days later.

from the vicinity of Gen. Dostum’s residence in Qaisar district in connection to the attack plot.
