New statement from the Islamic Emirate of Aghanistan’s Zabīh Allah Mujāhid: "Nicholson again fed misinformation to the American public about Trump’s Strategy"

Posted on by Aaron Y. Zelin

l_DzlA8Q
Reports were published that the failed commander of the American invading forces, General John Nicholson, gave a press briefing from Kabul to reporters in Washington about the futile strategy of Trump and described it as successful. This despite the fact that the Afghans and the entire world has understood that the American President’s (Trump) strategy for Afghanistan has failed and has resulted in nothing other than using terror and horror against the civilian population, bombing common people and homes, razing clinics, religious seminaries, schools, mosques, bazaars and public utility places and putting the tyrannical face of America on display.
The areas that were under the control of Islamic Emirate continue to remain under the control of Mujahideen while even more areas have been liberated from the grip of occupation.
The enemy casualties have increased multifold, their expenditure has ballooned and the Kabul administration has taken further steps in corruption, instability, feuds and disagreements while having no achievements.
The conquests of Farah and Ghazni along with conquests of 23 districts and other advances following the announcement of Trump’s strategy have shown that in spite of using all might and tools at her disposal, America has failed in propping up their stooges to an extent where they can quell the national uprising and resistance of the Afghan people and implement plans of the invaders.
The insistence of American Generals to continue feeding misinformation to the American public through media channels even after the perpetuated series of failures shows that just as the American Generals have failed militarily against the Afghan people, they similarly run away from their responsibility towards the American people and seek to continue this failed war in detriment to American interests because the tax money of the American people allocated to this war go to the personal pockets of American military mafia circles.
The Islamic Emirate once again calls on the American people – while analyzing the failed one-year-old Trump strategy – to end the killing of their children in this pointless war and stop spending their hard earned money in such futile and unwinnable conflicts.
The time has come for the American congress, American people, American civil society and American media to understand the realities instead of listening to the lies of their military generals and officials and to rescue America from this destructive and fruitless war.

New video message from al-Qā’idah in the Arabian Peninsula: "To Be Absolved Before Your Lord"

Posted on by Aaron Y. Zelin

The title of this release is in reference to Qur’anic verse 7:164. Here it is in full: ”

And when a community among them said, “Why do you advise [or warn] a people whom God is [about] to destroy or to punish with a severe punishment?” they [the advisors] said, “To be absolved before your Lord and perhaps they may fear Him.””
