New statement from the Islamic Emirate of Afghanistan's Zabīh Allah Mujāhid: "Remarks Concerning the Visit By the US Secretary of Defense"

l_DzlA8Q
Yesterday the defense secretary of the invading country US made an unannounced visit to Kabul where he exaggerated to his troops, granted new powers to commander Nicholson and talked about keeping 400 extra precautionary troops in region close to our homeland.
Such repetitive and futile statements can never heal the wounds of America because many of her generals have exhausted themselves here, many troops have been killed, maimed and developed mental illnesses, and she has used vast powers and made many boastful speeches.
American leaders should accept the realities instead of giving empty talk, end the occupation and save yourselves from international shame through use of reason and logic.
Our struggle against the invaders shall continue until the complete independence of our country and establishment of pathway for an Islamic system. No threat can ever stop our struggle in this path.
American leaders including the defense secretary should have learnt much from their predecessors. Many plans have been aborted here and many generals and armies handed defeat and disappointment.
Keeping a few hundreds troops in a far region and giving greater powers to your commander to kill and terrorize would have only worked if we had already not witnessed your savagery of 2001, Guantanamo, Bagram, night raids and wholesale destruction of villages and cities through your bombardments.

New statement from al-Qā’idah in the Indian Subcontinent’s Ustāẓ Usāmah Maḥmūd: "Stand Up To Today's Pharaoh America: Message to the Nation and Especially the People in Pakistan on the Martyrdom of the Leader of the Faithful Mullā Akhtar Muḥmmad Manṣūr"

Check out my new ‘Policy Watch’ with Jacob Olidort for the Washington Institute: "The Islamic State's Views on Homosexuality"


The tragic events at the Pulse nightclub in Orlando shed light on a lesser-known facet of the Islamic State (IS): the group’s virulently hostile views toward homosexuality, in particular its targeting of gay men. Thus far, no evidence has surfaced suggesting that IS directed the perpetrator, Omar Mateen, to conduct the operation, and jihadis usually have multiple motivations for taking action, including in this case possible mental health issues. Yet IS has published a vast corpus of justifications for killing homosexuals, and it has publicly targeted numerous allegedly gay men in Iraq and Syria in the past year-and-a-half alone.
To be sure, gay men were being targeted by the Iraqi and Syrian regimes prior to the announcement of the so-called IS “Caliphate,” and the region’s legal and religious climate is often inhospitable to that community. Moreover, other jihadi groups have executed homosexuals, including the Taliban, al-Qaeda, and its branches Jabhat al-Nusra and al-Qaeda in the Arabian Peninsula (AQAP). What stands out with IS, though, is the level of textual justification it has produced for such executions and the theatrical manner in which it conducts them, potentially inciting greater anti-LGBT violence.

New statement from the Islamic Emirate of Afghanistan: "Concerning the Expansion of the US Military's Role By Obama to Kill Afghans"

l_DzlA8Q
Reports surfaced yesterday that the US president Barak Obama expanded the military role of the remaining invaders against the Afghans, authorizing further airstrikes, raids and killings.
We condemn this effort of prolonging this war and occupation and remind the Americans that the Afghan nation has bravely faced all your might over the past 15 years. We are waging sacred Jihad against your invasion as a single nation, forget about the idea of ever subduing, defeating and forcing us to lay down our arms. That the nearly five hundred thousand police, army, intelligence personnel and militiamen trained by you are unable to combat the Mujahideen, are taking losses daily, retreating and fleeing and now begging you to fight alongside them against the Afghan people is in itself proof that you are not facing a group rather you are fighting an entire nation. Massacres can be perpetrated against nations, they can be oppressed, their lands occupied and prisons and cemeteries filled however their will can never be broken, their spirit of freedom never beaten and their struggle never subdued. Instead of marching your forces to battlefields and having them killed by us, unwarrantedly increasing your expenditure and prolonging a war which you shall never win in a hundred years, it would be better advised that you understand and accept the realities. If you ever take the time to read history of a land called the ‘Graveyard of Empires’, you will come to understand much about your actions. In 2010 when you decided to increase troop levels in Afghanistan, we told you then that you will gain nothing except increased casualties and expenditure. Perhaps you would have learnt that your decision (increasing troop level and expenditure) was futile? Because you have currently lost everything you tried to gain.  Repeating failed experiments is the work of failed nations.
Or if you believe our nation and Mujahideen will be frightened by such decisions and propaganda, then you are sadly mistaken. Whoever has given you this advice are surely either your stooges who seek to protect themselves with you, or supposed experts who have no knowledge about Afghanistan and this region or people whose interests lie in prolonged wars. If you begin to see Afghanistan as an equal country and recognize the Islamic Emirate as military, political and peaceful force demanding its legitimate rights and also take into consideration demands of this valiant nation, you shall be saved from a lot of expenditure and losses and your conscience forced to accept realities instead of testing force. But of you persist on force then the Mujahid Afghan nation under the leadership of Islamic Emirate – just as it has kept its political doors open to the world – shall keep the its frontlines hot and impenetrable, Allah willing.
