PESHAWAR: Ittehad Ulema-e-Afghanistan, an organisation of Afghan refugee religious scholars, has urged the US to declare its failure in Afghanistan and immediately withdraw NATO forces from the country, saying that the people of Afghanistan are able to reconstruct their homeland.
They said from the safety of their lair in Peshawar ... | According to a pamphlet issued to press on Friday, the Afghan ulema led by Abdullah made three demands from President Bush.
The first demand is to announce US failure in Afghanistan; the second is to withdraw US and allied forces from Afghanistan and the third is to compensate the Afghan government for killing of thousands of people and damaging their houses and property. "Let the Afghans be free and give them an opportunity to rebuild their country," the Ittehad Ulema-e-Afghanistan said, adding that after US forces' arrival and attacks in Afghanistan, the situation became from bad to worse.
