In an end-of-Ramadan message that emerged today, reclusive Taliban leader Mullah Omar insisted that the Taliban forces were doing extremely well in their continued war against the international occupation forces and that victory is “imminent.”
He added a demand that the international forces agree to an unconditional withdrawal “as soon as possible,” insisting it was in the best interests of everyone. Mullah Omar was the de facto leader of Afghanistan from 1996 to 2001, when the US invasion drove him into hiding. It is believed he is in Pakistan somewhere, though he has not been seen publicly.
Which was actually true even during his rule, as only a handful of photographs exist which are “suspected” of containing him, and none of them has been conclusively verified. Little is known about his exact role in the insurgency, though occasional communiques are released from him on their behalf.
These wars are bankrupting us into oblivion.
Not everything is a conspiracy. Why shouldn't Mullah Omar exist, and what is suspect about making a statement at the end of Ramadan?
The Taliban are a clear sign of what William Lindh calls Fourth Generation War, the return to warfare based on peoples and tribes, towns and religions, local authorities, not professional armies and states. Warfare that does not have frontlines. But the U.S. army is still fighting with frontline weapons. I wouldn't want to live in Afghanistan, they are crazy in their own way, but I see no reason to fight them either. Especially not since the Taliban ended the heroin exports to the West. Then came AIPAC's soldiers and put the corrupt Tajik druglords and the remnants of the communist party (the "Northern Alliance") in charge again – bravo. Leave the country and let the Taliban retake it.
They even offered to hand over bin Laden to a court of law if the U.S. could show evidence of his involvement in the 9/11 attacks, evidence that would hold up in a court of law. Bush and his neocons claimed to have such evidence in documents, but they were secret, no one could see them. Colin Powell stood before the UN General Assembly and claimed he had them. He has since then admitted he lied. The Afghans were not shown the non-existent evidence, and obviously they would not hand over bin Laden then, a national hero from the anti-Soviet war. Their offer was swept under the rug by the media, and they were demonized as part of a plot to take over the world, a "clash of cultures." Absurd. They were the only ones who made sense in the 9/11 affair, treating it as a criminal case and a police investigation, which it was. It is much better for the West if they are in power in Afghanistan than today's proxy government of druglords, ready to do the globalist agenda's bidding.
"Osama been Forgotten"…. LOL Now that's a keeper. But, of course, these corpses get dragged out of the closet every time the public needs a booster shot of fear.
It is 1840/42 all over again. Will america/britain ever learn.
