While the current Afghan government tries to defend the US use of the MOAB “Mother of All Bombs” last week against the Nangarhar Province, former President Hamid Karzai was extremely critical of the action, calling it an “immense atrocity” against fellow human beings.
Karzai complained that the current government was not offering enough comment when the US commits large strikes, saying the use of the largest non-nuclear bomb in history amounted both to a violation of Afghan sovereignty, and inherent disrespect to Afghanistan’s soil and environment.
The MOAB strike was dropped in the Achin District of Nangarhar, above what the US claimed was a substantial tunnel network used by ISIS. Though there is no sign of damage done to the tunnels, and MOAB is not intended to be a penetration bomb, President Trump has heralded it as a “successful event.”
Karzai long had a difficult relationship with the US government because of his willingness to criticize US military operations, particularly those which killed civilians or generally put them at risk. Throughout the Bush and Obama Administrations, there were often discussions of getting rid of Karzai outright, though ultimately he served out his terms in office.
Afghan Ex-President Karzai: Trump Committed an Atrocity With Massive Bombing
Whats so special about Afghanistan, Mr Karzai?
The USA commits attrocities – usually with bombs at least 4 times a week, often more.
Just the other day they illegally bombed Syria.
Which was as nothing to the war crime committed by their ‘friends’ a few days later when 126 Syrians were coldbloodedly murdered when their bus was bombed and that includes 68 children.
No report from the White House that Ivanka flourished her hankie over those 68 babies.
Wrong sort of babies – no doubt.
The USA illegally bombed Yugoslavia – back to the stoneage on behalf of a pack of Wahhabi aligned islamic terrorists and partitioned Serbia to give them a cosy little islamic narco/criminal base in southern Europe.
All the better to process and then ship and distribute on the poppies it grows in your country.
Since Yugoslavia the list is endless.
Biggees – Libya, Iraq and Syria.
Sorry Mr Karzai – you have the world’s sympathy – but intil Russia and China can bring to heel the most vile military rogue state in known world history – you will just get more.
A crumb of comfort from Paul Craig Roberts.

Princess Ivanka and her husband Mister Ivanka are too busy to respond to any breaking news events.
They are enjoying a 10 day Passover vacation on the ski slopes of British Columbia.
They’re at Mount Whistler, BC where much of the 2010 Vancouver Olympics were held.
This ski trip follows a March ski trip to British Columbia and a December vacation in Hawaii.
Here is a link to an article with pictures from their vacations.

Trump gave Mister Ivanka the jobs of bringing peace to the Middle East and reorganizing the Federal government.
Where does Mr. Ivanka find the time to go on multiple ski vacations?
More important, when Princess Ivanka is shushing down the Canadian ski slopes who will be changing Daddy’s diapers back in Washington, DC?
Perhaps Mr. Ivanka assigned that job to Bannon.
So what you are saying is the the so compassionate Ivanka doesn’t let her skiing trips interfere with her hanky usage.
I think most of us worked out they were fake tears for fake news.
Statement coming out of No10 at 11.30 our time.
Could be an election.
8th June
If thats an election how is she getting around the 5 year term Cameron set to protect his butt and Cleggs.
It will be interesting to watch millions of Tories shuffling out to vote for more mass immigration – more islamification – both her stated policies. and a betrayal of Brexit.
Party before country again – you watch.
Do you think Nigel will come back?
I darn well hope so.
PM May thinks that her recent support of Brexit will play well in an election.
And a Labour party in disarray will help.
Perhaps if she wins reelection she will behave like American politicians and backtrack on Brexit.
Ivanka’s tears are glycerin tears.
Glycerin tears photograph well.
A great 14 minute video from Black Pigeon Speaks.
How Governments Lies Us Into Wars.
See my reply to Southern Cross.
You watch the Tory voters sell out Brexit.
Once again support mass immigration and islamification.
Just watch.
Then they will all moan.
When May talks about Global Britain she implies opening up Britain to the 3rd World, especially the Islamic world.
May is a red blooded globalist of the traditional evil globalist kind.
She is pro EU and committed to the globalism which destroys nation states like Britain.
Don’t be conned.
A few months ago she flew to the bilderbergers conference and pledged herself and Britain to globalism – and with it of course the bilderberger agenda.
Followed a day or two later by the speech in Philadelphia as she went ot meet Trump.
May sent fat Boris into the G7 to try and get harsher sanctions on Russia the other day. He failed.
She is as a fanatical Russiaphobe as she is pro islamic.
She has set up 90 sharia courts in Britain with no parliamentary approval in an apartheird system of justice which is absolutely an affront to British common law and our history and culture.
She is absolutely in the pockets of the Saudis – aiding and abetting their mass murder in Yemen with British support and weapons – not to mention ‘advisors’ on the quiet.
Utterly in denial to islam she witters ‘islam is the religion of peace’ twice a week whilst telling us over easter christians can have the right to their own faith in their own country.
Nice of her.
She is allowing islamics to pour in under any excuse.
For 7 years she has been in control of our immigration – and the biggest influx in our history.
She allows the Saudis to pour in money to British mosques – which are going up everywhere and allows them to fund islamic schools – dozens of those going in to.
Junior islamic indoctrination centres and jihadi training camps.
She is Cameron in a skirt.
Now a war criminal with her over the top support of the bombing of Syria – but has voted for the iraq war, the raping of Libya and to bomb damascus.
And the tories will flock to vote for her – selling out Britain as she is selling out Brexit, our borders and our security and most of them putting party before country won’t have two clues of what they are even voting for.
Mass immigration, islamification, occupation and the betrayal of Brexit.
One of the best articles in a while.
Don’t miss.

That’s American “leaders” for you- they condemn any and every little “act of aggression” their “enemies” make around the world and then they turn around and do ONE THOUSANDS times worse damage! Americans are “exceptional” people? I don’t think so, unless that “exceptional behavior” is dumb and dumber! A clueless nation, led by clueless leaders, should NEVER be given weapons to play with.
You’re absolutely right, Hank. USA “leaders” condemn any/every little “act of aggression” their “enemies” make around the world and then they turn around and to multiple times worse damage. Right. Americans are “exceptional” people? I agree with you 100%. I don’t think so, either, unless that “exceptional behavior” is dumb and dumber. As you rightly said, a clueless nation, led by clueless leaders, should NEVER be given weapons with which to play.
I think the MOAB-drop was to ensure it kept from the headlines the news that a US-led airstrike hit a chemical weapons dump and released gas which reportedly killed hundreds. This is exactly what Syria claimed happened a week earlier but it was condemned and illegally attacked by the US for it.
To do the same after all those cries of “war crime” had to be avoided and the media’s supporters of terrorists and terrorism did just that. Pure criminality.
3 cheers, Karzai up a notch.
