Nay, they are alive, with their Lord, and they have provision. They rejoice in what Allah has bestowed upon them of His Bounty, rejoicing for the sake of those who have not yet joined them, but are left behind (not yet martyred) that on them no fear shall come, nor shall they grieve. They rejoice in a Grace and a Bounty from Allah, and that Allah will not waste the reward of the believers.” ( The Family Of Imran,verse 169-171) History of Afghanistan The Islamic History of Afghanistan (327BC - 832 AD): Afghanistan's history is marked with rebellion, warfare, and a firm resistance against foreign invasion. It reveals a people who are warlike, courageous, independent, resilient, and unwilling to surrender. Along with the large number of conquests and rebellions associated with this region, its history is further complicated by the fact that for the most part, various fractions of present-day Afghanistan were ruled by different dynasties. Thus, most of the famous dynasties in history have at some point, ruled some part of Afghanistan, and rulers from several different dynasties have ruled various parts of Afghanistan concurrently. What follows below is a somewhat simplified version of the Islamic history of Afghanistan. Pre-Islamic Afghanistan Afghanistan had been part of the Persian Empire until it was conquered by Alexander. It is reported that Alexander had the greatest trouble of all in conquering Afghanistan and then keeping it in his kingdom. Alexander's conquest was followed by conquests of various parts of present-day Afghanistan by the Chinese and Persians. The pre-Islamic religions in the region include Buddhism, Hinduism, and Zoroastrianism. "I stormed through Persia, I stormed through the Pyramids, I stormed through the plains of Persapolis, but I wept and disheartened in Bactria (Afghanistan)" - Alexander, while dying of pneumonia and after unsuccessfully trying to occupy Afghanistan. The Conquest of Afghanistan During the Time of the Sahaabah Caliph Umar (may Allah be pleased with him) sent the sahabi Ahnaf bin Qays towards Persia (which included present-day Iran and parts of present-day Afghanistan). He was successful in defeating the last of the Persian rulers, "Yazdgard" taking over southern Iran. Yazdgard fled towards Khurasan, but Ahnaf bin Qays followed him and also captured Khurasan. He then fled further north. During the time of Caliph Uthman (may Allah be pleased with him), the sphere of Muslim conquests widened, and more areas of present-day Afghanistan came under the Islamic empire. These included: Kabul (conquered by Abdullah bin Aamir), Marw (Ahnaf bin Qays), Herat (Ahnaf bin Qays), Balkh and Takharistan (Khubayb bin Qura Alyarbu'ee), and Seestaan (Abdullah bin Umayr). Rebellions and Related Conquests It should be noted that Yazdgard kept fleeing from the states the Muslims would conquer into neighboring states. Wherever he would go, he would start working on inciting the people of his former Persian empire to rebel against the newly appointed Muslim rulers. He thus, led many successful rebellions, including armed attacks in cooperation with other governments such as the Khakans of China. By the Grace of Allah, all these attacks and rebellions were crushed by the armies of the Sahaba. However, rebellion and unrest in one form or another prevailed in various parts of present-day Afghanistan throughout the period of the Umayyid Dynasty. Da'wah and Consolidation It was realized by the wise Muslim Caliphs that this region would only come under control if the people truly accepted Islam and willingly submitted to the laws of Allah Subhanahu wa Ta'ala. Thus, great Muslim preachers and scholars such as Imam Hasan Al-Basri were sent to the region. Through their efforts, coupled with effective rule of the conquerer Qutayba bin Muslim, law and order was finally maintained in most of present- day Afghanistan towards the end of the first century Hijri. Sahaba and Tabi'een were appointed as judges, who would give rulings free of political influence or pressure. Afghanistan Under the Abbasid Caliphate The final blow to the Umayyid dynasty was dealt in 749 AD (132 Hijri) after which Afghanistan came under the Abbasid Caliphate. The establishment of the Abbasid rule in Afghanistan was mainly due to the efforts of an influential person by the name of Abu Muslim Khurasani, who traveled to Iraq even before the Umayyid Caliphate ended, and made agreements with the Abbasid rulers of the time. Various rebellions, mainly in Kabul, continued, but were crushed by the Abbasids. Thus, while a firm established system of Shariah was not in place, the roots of Islam continued to be strengthened. By this time, all other religions had almost completely been eliminated and great works of Islamic culture and literature started emerging. The Farsi language was born, and schools teaching various branches of Islamic knowledge started emerging in major cities. Most of Afghanistan remained under the Abbasid Caliphate until the Abbasi-appointed ruler of Khurasan, Tahir bin Husain, declared his independence in 832 AD. The Islamic History of Afghanistan (900 AD - Present): Dynasties The period that followed saw many different dynasties ruling many fractions of Afghanistan. The Samanis The Samanis ruled north-western Afghanistan until the end of the tenth century AD. The Ghaznavis In 976 AD, Ghazni had been captured by Subuktugeen, whose son, the famous Mahmud of Ghazna, conquered vast areas and extended his empire well into present day India. He conquered India in seventeen attacks, each one very successful. One of his greatest contributions was the elimination of statues and idols, to be replaced by monuments of Islamic civilization. He is thus, known in history as the "destroyer of idols". Many great people such as Ibn Seena - the doctor and scientist, Al-Beruni - the famous traveler, Firdausi - the great poet, and many others emerged during the Ghaznavi period. The Seljuks, Khwarzm Shahis and the Ghoris Various parts of present-day Afghanistan had also been under the rule of the Seljuk Dynasty in the eleventh and twelfth centuries AD. This was followed by conquests by Khwarzm Shah and his descendents, who ruled parts of Afghanistan concurrently with the Ghori dynasty. The Ghoris expanded their empire to include Khorasan all the way to the Arabian Gulf. The northern parts of Afghanistan were mostly under the Khwarizm Shahis and there were constant armed conflicts between the two. The Ghori period is called the "golden period" of Afghanistan's history in terms of literary and academic development. Pashtu language developed much during this time. Names such as Imam Razi, Nizami, Qadi Minhaj, and Urudhi are associated with this period. Mongols While the Ghori rule was at its height of progess, the Mongols poured down from the North and started destroying every city and town they encountered. They defeated Khwarzm Shah and captured the areas under his control. The ruler of Ghazni, Sultan Jalal-ud-Din, in a historic battle at Meewan, defeated the army of Chengiz (Genghis) Khan and prevented them from entering Ghazni.

Author’s Acknowledgments This report would not have been possible without the generosity and assistance of the director of the Harmony Research Program at the Combating Terrorism Center (CTC), Don Rassler. Mr. Rassler provided me with the support and encouragement to pursue this project, and his enthusiasm for the material always helped to lighten my load. I should state here that the first tentative steps on this line of inquiry were made during my time as a student at the Program in Near Eastern Studies at Princeton University. If not for professor Şükrü Hanioğlu’s open‐minded approach to directing my MA thesis, it is unlikely that I would have embarked on this investigation of Yunus Khalis. Professor Michael Reynolds also deserves great credit for his patience with this project as a member of my thesis committee. I must also extend my utmost appreciation to my reviewers—Carr Center Fellow Michael Semple, professor David Edwards and Vahid Brown—whose insightful comments, I believe, have led to a substantially improved and more thoughtful product.

  • Terrorism Versus Democracy
    Downloaded by [University of Defence] at 20:58 07 June 2016 Terrorism versus Democracy This book examines the terrorist networks that operate globally and analyses the long-term future of terrorism and terrorist-backed insurgencies. Terrorism remains a serious problem for the international community. The global picture does not indicate that the ‘war on terror’, which President George W. Bush declared in the wake of the 9/11 attacks, has been won. On the other hand it would be incorrect to assume that Al Qaeda, its affiliates and other jihadi groups have won their so-called ‘holy war’ against the Coalition against Terrorism formed after 9/11. This new edition gives more attention to the political and strategic impact of modern transnational terrorism, the need for maximum international cooperation by law-abiding states to counter not only direct threats to the safety and security of their own citizens but also to preserve international peace and security through strengthening counter-proliferation and cooperative threat reduction (CTR). This book is essential reading for undergraduate and postgraduate students of terrorism studies, political science and international relations, as well as for policy makers and journalists. Paul Wilkinson is Emeritus Professor of International Relations and Chairman of the Advisory Board of the Centre for the Study of Terrorism and Political Violence (CSTPV) at the University of St Andrews. He is author of several books on terrorism issues and was co-founder of the leading international journal, Terrorism and Political Violence.

  • Afghanistan: Post-Taliban Governance, Security, and U.S
    Afghanistan: Post-Taliban Governance, Security, and U.S. Policy (name redacted) Specialist in Middle Eastern Affairs (name redacted) Analyst in Middle Eastern Affairs November 7, 2017 Congressional Research Service 7-.... www.crs.gov RL30588 Afghanistan: Post-Taliban Governance, Security, and U.S. Policy Summary The United States, partner countries, and the Afghan government are attempting to reverse recent gains made by the resilient Taliban-led insurgency since the December 2014 transition to a smaller international mission consisting primarily of training and advising the Afghanistan National Defense and Security Forces (ANDSF). The Afghan government has come under increasing domestic criticism not only for failing to prevent insurgent gains but also for its internal divisions that have spurred the establishment of new political opposition coalitions. In September 2014, the United States brokered a compromise to address a dispute over the 2014 presidential election, but a September 2016 deadline was not met for enacting election reforms and deciding whether to elevate the Chief Executive Officer (CEO) position to a prime ministership. The Afghan government has made some measurable progress in reducing corruption and implementing its budgetary and other commitments. It has adopted measures that would enable it to proceed with new parliamentary elections, but no election date has been set. The number of U.S. forces in Afghanistan, which peaked at about 100,000 in 2011, is about 9,800, of which most are assigned to the 13,000-person NATO-led “Resolute Support Mission” (RSM) that trains, assists, and advises the ANDSF. About 2,000 of the U.S. contingent are involved in combat against Al Qaeda and other terrorist groups, including the Afghanistan branch of the Islamic State organization (ISIL-Khorasan), under “Operation Freedom’s Sentinel” (OFS).

Willbanks, Committee Member ____________________________ Dr. Robert F. Baumann, Committee Member ____________________________ Dr. Maria Carlson, Committee Member ____________________________ Dr. Jacob W.

Preparation for war is an expensive, burdensome business, yet there is one important part of it that costs little–study. However changed and strange the new conditions of war may be, not only generals, but politicians and ordinary citizens, may find there is much to be learned from the past that can be applied to the future and, in their search for it, that some campaigns have more than others foreshadowed the coming pattern of modern war.1 — Field Marshall Viscount William Slim.

Since the military brought the first detainees to Guantánamo in January 2002, the Pentagon has consistently refused to comprehensively identify those it holds. While it has, at various times, released information about individuals who have been detained at Guantánamo, it has always maintained ambiguity about the population of the facility at any given moment, declining even to specify precisely the number of detainees held at the base. We have sought to identify the detainee population using a variety of records, mostly from habeas corpus litigation, and we have sorted the current population into subgroups using both the government’s allegations against detainees and detainee statements about their own affiliations and conduct.

(Antti Saarelma / Finnish Defence Forces. Used with permission.) © Teemu Nurmela National Defence University, Department of Tactics and Operational Art ISBN 978-951-25-2081-7 ISSN 1238-2744 Edita Prima Oy Helsinki 2010 3 FOREWORD Due to the complexity of conflicts, the human dimension in peacekeeping and stabiliza- tion operations has increased its significance. At the same time understanding of human dimension has not improved at the same rate. The lessons learnt from different missions differ from country to country and from mission to mission. Before this study, very little Finnish or international research exists on the human terrain of a conflict. The purpose of this study is to explore the human dimension of the tactical land operating environment (battlespace) in stabilization operations and thereby interpret the tactical reality of deployed ground troops. This study gives a new perspective and significant information understanding of the actors and situation in operating environment which usually is more than compli- cated. On behalf of department of tactics and operational art, I would like to thank Teemu Nurmela for providing new scientific information to the broad field of military sciences. Santahamina 25.1.2010
