 Afghan President Hamid Karzai, blaming violence in his country on foreign elements, on Friday issued a fresh call to Taliban militants to lay down their arms and join his government. Karzai, speaking at a ceremony commemorating Afghanistan’s victory against the Soviet-backed communist regime in 1992, said those engaged in insurgency against his government were “unknowingly” fighting their people on orders of foreign elements. He did not elaborate.
| Let me elaborate for him, then: The rubes with the turbans and the automatic weapons are fighting against one set of foreigners — us, which includes the NATO forces — at the behest and on the dime of another set of foreigners. Karzai is too polite to mention who has the burning desire for "strategic depth" outside his borders, and he's too polite to mention who's sitting on top of a large pool of very expensive oil with money to burn. |
“On this great day of our nation’s victory, I call on our those brothers who are unknowingly causing the destruction of their country on the guidance of the enemy, to return to their homes,” Karzai said. He blamed the factional fighting on a “hidden foreign invasion”.
| It's not "imperialism" when it's Arabs moving in and taking over poor countries and imposing their culture and religion... |
“Afghanistan’s sacrifices took the holy war to victory. But unfortunately the glory of the victory did not last long and the fighting erupted on foreign interference,” he said.
| That'd be Hekmatyar initiating the Dog Eat Dog at the behest of Mullah Diesel and Mullah Sandwich, followed by the Arab brethren suddenly becoming the Arab masters... |
“The country was secretly invaded and it became the nest of terrorism,” he added. A Taliban commander, speaking shortly before Karzai’s latest call, urged Afghans to join the jihad, or holy war, to force out foreign “infidels”, just as Soviet troops were forced out in the 1980s. |
