MILNEWS.ca - Miltiary News for Canadians Peace Jirga Or A New Formula To Compensate For The US Fiasco In Afghanistan 01-11-2008 In the Name of Allah, the Most Beneficent, the Most Merciful A Pashto proverb says: “ I am beating you hither; you are sounding back thither.” The fact of the matter is that Afghanistan has been chafing under the occupation of the US Alliance of crusaders for the last seven years. Our national independence, our religious and Islamic values, the Afghan dignity and pride have lost their true meaning as a result of the encroachments and aggressions of tens of thousand of troops hailing from more than 38 countries. The brutality and barbarism being perpetrated by the invading army is trampling on our atmosphere, land and villages. Still more, every other day, the invaders are threateningly speaking of bringing additional forces . All these notwithstanding, neither a jirga, the arbitraries, nor any entity of justice came forward to hint to those who are responsible for the current crisis and catastrophe in Afghanistan and expose those who are behind all this mess? Similarly, nor they rose to the occasion to portray the players bent on further expanding and accelerating this brutality. It is a matter of a shocking concern that, on the one hand our land and country are under occupation; our home and hearth have been ruined; our people have been forced to immigration and displacement; they have been shackled and tortured and, above all, these flagrant violations are continuing intermittingly. Despite all these, a peace jirga is ostensibly held to establish peace. The participants, even by the way of inadvertence, do not point to the brutalities and atrocities committed by the foreign troops in Afghanistan and the region; they did not raise their fingers to this serious issue, nor to the bloodshed unleashed by the troops. Even the participants could not say that the presence of the foreign troops in Afghanistan was itself a problems. By and large, the participants of the jirgas are striving, on the behest of the USA, to put the blame on those who are protecting and safeguarding our national dignity, integrity and sovereignty of the land. They insist on these heroes to lay down their arms and submit themselves to Bush with a full surrender without demur. If they http://milnews.ca 3 of 23 1 of 3 02-11-2008 12:52 Peace Jirga or a New Formula to Compensate for the US Fiasco in Afghan... http://theunjustmedia.com/Afghanistan/Statements/oct08/Peace%20Jirga...http://theunjustmedia.com/Afghanistan/Statements/oct08/Peace%20Jirga... MILNEWS.ca - Miltiary News for Canadians claim that is not the case, then, we see this hard fact like a broad day light that the people of Afghanistan, Pakistan and Iraq are wading through a river of blood and dust; they are stranded and displaced in their own homeland. The main cause behind all these mishaps is the presence of the Crusaders Alliance; the occupation of Afghanistan and Iraq by this Alliance and the support being extended to them by some other countries. Even today, if the US-led Alliance leaves Afghanistan, and puts an end to the diabolical policy of arrogance in this part of the world, then it is clear to all that peace will return and the masses will take a breath of relief; economic prosperity will usher in; countries and tribes will embark on a path of co-existence on the basis of fraternity and friendship. We ask the participants of the so-called peace mini-jirga, among whom do you intend to make peace? If you are trying to make peace between Pakistan and Afghanistan, they have their own State institutions and the norms of good neighborliness are well-known to them, they can resolve their pending issues through diplomatic channels. Then what is the role of this mini-jirga’s holding this meeting? We know that no serious difference does exist between the people of Pakistan and Afghanistan. Had it been the case, they must have held the peace jirga to solve it. In other words, had there been such a conspicuous issue between the two countries, we would have accepted their rationale of holding the regional jirga. However, the fact is that Bush has ensconced himself in the so-called peace jirga, acting by proxy. We question whom he does represent in the peace-making process of the jirga? But if the issue is not between the people of Afghanistan and Pakistan and there is a third power, which they consider as a threat – i.e the Taliban. Then it would have been more rationale to have extended a invitation to them to tell their side of the story, to tell why they have put their lives in danger and avowed to lay down their lives and are calling people to jihad and struggle and have opted for a militant approach to resolve the problem. But we see, the real contending party is out of sight; it is being ignored. Both the plaintiff, the witness and the judge are all hailing from the same household, and are calling this gathering of theirs as the peace jirga of the tribes residing on both sides of Pakistan and Afghanistan. Now when the so-called peace jirga’s meetings are continuing in the Pakistani capital, Islamabad, our message to them is that such farce jirgas for peace and stability will not succeed because the Mujahid people of Afghanistan know the substance of such shallow jirgas. They know the calibre of the government sponsored http://milnews.ca 4 of 23 2 of 3 02-11-2008 12:52 Peace Jirga or a New Formula to Compensate for the US Fiasco in Afghan..
