Taliban Defiance On Show With Attacks

Believe it or not I think this is looking good and we are in their stronghold taking them on and bringing them out. Now is a critical time over there and we must be more vigilant and relentless than the militants are. This can go either way and we better make damn sure it goes our way period so we do not join Afghanistan's graveyard of nation's. As we have discussed numerous times, this really is crunch time and since Mullah Baradar’s capture in Afghanistan and Pakistan things keep getting better and better

The Taliban said Sunday they were behind an attack on NATO's main base in southern Afghanistan, the third on international forces in a week, showing their determination to meet fire with fire, AFP reported. As U.S. and NATO troops escalate operations against the militants in their heartland of Kandahar province, the Taliban are making good on threats of a nationwide campaign against targets allied with the Kabul government.

The attack in Kandahar was the third on international forces in a matter of days after a suicide attack in the capital on Tuesday and an attack on Bagram Airfield, about 35 miles (60km) north of Kabul, the following day. Seven hours of fighting at Bagram resulted in the deaths of an American contract worker and 16 militants, NATO said. Nine NATO soldiers were wounded.

Earlier this month the Taliban announced a new nationwide campaign of attacks in Afghanistan, targeting diplomats, Afghan parliamentarians and foreign contractors, as well as foreign forces. Taliban Defiance On Show With Attacks

At West Point President Obama correctly predicts Biblical times are ahead but we will be victorious as long as all Nations hold together. He is right! He drew sharp contrasts to the go it alone, war monger, Bush he proceeds.

Biblical times are ahead and much worse than he realizes because of President Bush and Islamic militants. Religion on both sides of the issue guaranteed it.

We all knew Iraq and Afghanistan were mistakes but we do not matter. Gates said if we have to go after DPRK we will use air and navy and they are not over extended. They will be if that and Iran happens! Any sane man would have saved themselves for eventualities as they will arise like it or not. That said, we are in this to win and win we must so we can go home and fight from there as this is still barely beginning.

Helmond province mullah's in London to bridge gap and learn, it's about time!

I love it; it is about time the right thing is finally being done. This just keeps looking better and better. The US and ground zero should be next. Seeing why we are what we are and why we are doing what we are doing is vey important to get them to realize we are not their enemy. We want to get rid of the threat of militant anti western Islam and go home. The sooner they realize that the better for all involved.

I know in the last misadministration we had the war mongers and complicit Tony Blaire but if they were ever serious about getting rid of the threat in Afghanistan and then going home they would have done this long ago. These are the most powerful and influential Mullah's in Helmond province and they are actually on our side wanting to see us succeed.

They were adamant they do not see Britain and its allies as occupiers. Haji Mulla Meherdell Kajar, chief imam of the Central Mosque in Lashkar Gah, says the foreign forces are doing what they can to help Afghanistan and are making huge sacrifices in the process. I am so psyched!

"They understand local propaganda says that the invaders want to destroy them and that illiterate people listen to the propaganda. However they know our forces were invited in to help overcome their problems coming from those that truly do want to control them. I am so psyched and stupefied that this was not done long ago.

Haji Mulla Meherdell Kajar and the other three Mullah's were amazed to hear from the BBC that some British Muslims want the international forces to pull out. Hajji Meherdell was emphatically against a premature withdrawal. Did I say I was psyched? This should be trumpeted top to bottom throughout Afghanistan.

"They understand that the Muslim brothers who say Britain should leave Afghanistan do not know Islam. Don't they know our whole country is at war? Furthermore they realize those that want perverted Sharia law are feeding the people lies.They should advise the British not to withdraw their forces until they bring stability, security and development to Afghanistan and then they can go." I love it spread the word!

What surprised the scholars most, though, was to find Muslims in every walk of life in Britain. Whether meeting them in the Foreign Office, or as security guards they had not known before that Muslims had jobs. They believed that Muslims were treated badly and not allowed to practice their religion. I am stupefied, no wonder they fear us.

They were particularly taken aback by the Afghan mosque London and watched as several hundred turned up to pray. Haji Mokhtar Aqqani the most senior religious figure in Helmand even addressed the congregation. That must have been a wake up and an honor for those attending, all of which often listen to extremists trying to get them to go to Afghanistan to fight. This is great!

In Afghanistan Haji Mokhtar Aqqani has spoken out against the Taliban, delivering radio messages condemning suicide bombings, and issued a fatwa against the growing of poppies. However even he still thought that Muslims in the UK could not go to the mosque. I just absolutely love this as it keeps getting better and better.

After prayers Mullah Aqqani told the BBC that People in Helmand say that in Britain there are no mosques and no freedom to worship because that is the crap they are fed. He was really surprised to see so many people come and pray here freely and will take that message back home." The scholars went to other mosques in Birmingham and London. It is called religious freedom, go home and spread the word so we can go home.

By the end of the trip, Haji Meherdell concluded: "We have found true Islam in this country, a peaceful tolerant society where Muslims are not harmed, the opposite of what the Taliban and insurgents tell us." Time to go hack to Afghanistan and tell the people the truth. This should just be a beginning and the US should be next so they can see the same in the US and realize we have nothing against them and want to go home and have a peaceful fruitful relationship with them now and in the future.
