Monthly Op-Ed—Brother Younus Abdullah Muhammad

It is rare that the Ummah of Muhammad (SAWS) is in receipt of good news these days, but with the Taliban’s confirmation that they indeed rescued 1400 of their brothers from the largest prison in Afghanistan on June 13, 2008, It seems the tide has officially shifted and haps we are witnessing an early glimpse into the inevitable end of the foreign occupation of Afghanistan. As of late these freedom fighhave gained substantial momentumand continue to prove that there will always be what the Prophet Muhammad (SAWS) termed“TAIFA MANSUURA,” or victorious sect, a group of Muslims in every day and age up until the time of the Dajjal that wages jihad inname if Islam and is granted victory from Allah Aza wa Jal. The Taliban released a confirmation of the prison break and critiqued the m

stream media’s coverage of the event as they continue to expose the slander and lies propagated by the international press. A spokesmanthe Taliban claimed that, “These well established and recognized media sources are nothing but the instrument through which the peopleindoctrinated to agendas disguised as news. They are systematically advocating a Satanic order, which will decapitate the intellectualithumans thus making them subservient to their masters under all circumstances and anyone who is standing up to fight these evil agendquickly labeled as a terrorist.” The event, which should have been recognized as a significant turning point in the Afghanistan War and lesubstantial voices calling for the withdrawal of the 40 country, U.S. dominated occupational force, led to little more than a whimper fthe West. The reality is that the western world is losing the War in Afghanistan and as a consequence, the international order is being recfigured. The prison break in Kandahar is the beginning of what may prove to be avery long summer for the fascist, imperialist west.

The week before the jail break, the United States in its increasing and ongoing lack of recognition for national sovereignty, bombed Pakiterritory by air and claimed to have killed a few mujahedeen that had crossed the border from Afghanistan. In reality the attacks killedPakistani paramilitary soldiers, alleged allies in this “War on Terror.” In a pathetic effort to steer concentration away from the U.S.’s vtion of international law and the precedent established at the Nuremberg Trials in regard to wars of aggression, that puppet of the Neo-NaHamid Karzai stood and justified the attacks into Pakistan claiming, “Afghanistan has the right of self defense” as he justified the aggressiotypical doublespeak claiming “It is the duty of Afghanistan to liberate the Pashtuns of Pakistan from a life of tyranny and terror.” His effare part of the ongoing global campaign by western fascists to justify their atrocities in the name of the War on Terror and Karzai’s refereto the duty of Afghanistan to liberate the Pashtuns is part of his ongoing pathetic attempt to create a nationalist identity where the Islaidentity has always reigned supreme. He is playing off of a sentiment created by the British in their “Great Game” with Russia of the e19th century when a then British hegemon funded a monarchy that managed to create an Afghan national identity that served the twofold pose of combating the religious identity that resisted foreign occupation and at the same time served to divide and conquer the peoples ofregion and protect British India in that day. However, Britain too found itself in prolonged warfare with mujahedeen that forced outBritish backed monarchy in 1929 and have been fighting to establish the Islamic state there since quite successfully. In reality, Karzai likeBush Administration and its neo-con ideologues fails to grasp the reality of the historical record. Their end will prove quite similar toBritish and the Russians, costly and prolonged warfare will weaken the dominant power and eventually they will be forced to evacuate. Russians chose however to stay so long that they eventually bankrupted their entire system. Looking at the reality of the United States’ sent economic situation seems to suggest that the hubris of the American establishment may eventually lead to the same consequencereality the jail break is simply a milestone for those that can see, to highlight an advanced stage in a process that has been unfolding for qsome time.

The situation in Afghanistan is bleak indeed. It took the United States just one month to surpass the death toll of civilians killed on Septber the 11th and since that time their killing of innocent civilians has triggered enormous animosity amongst the people of Afghanistan. unsuccessful attempt to install a puppet regime and dupe the people into believing it is autonomous witnesses the increasing pressureHamid Karzai to be relieved. Karzai has cooperated with the U.S since the years of Afghan jihad against the Soviets in the 1980s and confirmed that he has ties with the CIA and that he carried out a large-scale covert operation inside Afghanistan after the Soviet jihad withobjective of igniting a popular uprising against the Taliban regime. Karzai was in fact the main Afghan leader the administration of PresidBush relied on to work against the Caliph Mullah Omar fromthe inside. He was also a chief advisor to the California based UNOCAL coration which was negotiating with the Taliban to construct a Central Asian gas pipeline from Turkmenistan through Western Afghanistaninto Pakistan. The imperialist nature of the war has been exposed and the people of Afghanistan understand full well who their Presidrepresents, while Karzai knows full well who the people actually represent. In an interview with German press Spiegel, Karzai recentlyknowledged that “I wish I had the Taliban as my soldiers.”

Conditions in Afghanistan today are typical of empire. In protected Kabul an elite has emerged that may shop in malls that sell the besgoods from all over the world. Foreign representatives of NGO’s and private contractors that vie for the rebuilding of the country or buing of permanent military bases also partake in the party as prostitution, gambling, drug and alcohol use runs rampant. Limousines drive

noble local and foreign elite around at night through a city protected like a castle by foreign force and the rest of Afghanistan is controlocally and conditions are atrocious with severe economic and health depravation. Must seem just like home for the western soldiers thatdeployed there. As the people of Afghanistan endure the occupation, the mujahedeen continue to successfully resist it. Reports from neevery organization that have conducted research point to the same thing, a growing tide of resentment against the government and the opiers and mounting concern that the West with all its military might may indeed lose the war. Ronald E. Neumann, the American ambador in Kabul, said in a late 2006 interview that the United States faced “stark choices” in Afghanistan. Averting failure, he said, would t“multiple years” and “multiple billions.” Recently the U.S., U.K. and its coalition pledged 20 billion in aid to Afghanistan over the neyears. The U.S. will fund 10 billion of it. But Integrity Watch Afghanistan (IWA), an internationally funded NGO claims that “Of the billion in aid to Afghanistan from 2001 until now, only some $15 billion has been spent. For every $100 spent, sometimes only $20 actureaches Afghan recipients and “As much as 20 percent of international aid to Afghanistan is spent on so-called technical assistance; jargonhighly paid foreign staff. Some $1.6 billion was spent on technical assistance between 2002 and 2006” their report said. Some staff worfor the USAID, the U.S. government's development agency earn as much as $22,000 a month in Afghanistan or 367 times more than anghan teacher. On January 30, 2008 members of the Senate Foreign Relations Committee grilled U.S. specialists on South and Central AAffairs. One Senator Richard C. Luger concluded, “The overall situation in Afghanistan remains grave.” A New York Times article fr

February of this year describes the Korengal River Valley in Afghanistan’s Northwest Province as the home of international mujahedeen fr

all over the world and states that, “On their hand-held radios, the old jihadis call the Americans “monkeys,” “infidels,” ‘’bastards” and “tkids.” The article describes the situation where the troops cannot handle the ferocious attacks by the experienced mujahedeen and instemust resort to calling in air attacks that cannot discriminate between soldier and civilian. This should resonate a similitude to the VietnaWar when civilians were gassed and bombarded continuously at the hands of the American imperialist. This prison break merely highligha turn of events in a war most people in the West have actually forgotten. Mike Scheuer, who headed the CIA's Osama Bin Laden Teamstated in April of this year that the war is a “terrible disaster for the United States and NATO. NATO seems to be dying in AfghanistanWhen asked for the solution to the West’s quagmire in Afghanistan, he stated that there was little probability the issue could be fixed bcause, "Unfortunately, it would involve several major politicians saying we've lied to you for the last 15 years." Yet, lying is a staple of tAmerican political arena and there is little doubt that no American politicians will expose reality and accept defeat in Afghanistan any timsoon that would simply be bad for public opinion and so as Barak Obama calls for increased force in Afghanistan and more air raids in Pak

stan, and Join McCain calls for a hundred year war against Iranian trained Al-Qaeda members, American history seems to be repeating.From 1964 to 1972, the United States expended countless millions and maximummilitary effort to defeat a nationalist revolutionary movment in the tiny country of Vietnam. In the end they failed and when military might met the human desire to wrest oneself from foreignpower and control, the humans won. The difference between then and now remains that Americans cared then about what the country wdoing, one of the greatest social movements occurred in that time. Today people speak more about Darfur than they do about the Wars Iraq and Afghanistan that have now killed in the millions and the politicians continue to lie. During the Vietnam War era, politicians wougo to Vietnam and report on progress, they would criticize withdrawal as appeasement, and would constantly say victory was near. The la6 years in Afghanistan have witnessed much the same minus the antiwar movement. Apparently the American people actually believe theare waging a war on terror.However, while definitions and catchphrases seem to be all the craze amongst members of the western press and the academy, the probleis that certain terms can never be defined by those that seek to rid the world of terrorism or extremism or fundamentalismbecause the vedefinitions they propose easily lead the rational mind to conclude that no one is more guilty of fulfilling the definitions than the UnitedStates itself. Take for example the nuclear arms issue, the only country that has ever used the nuclear bomb was the United States, as thebombings of Hiroshima and Nagasaki took place well after the Japanese had declared defeat in World War II and was meant solely to send

threatening message to the USSR; the reason there is no internationally agreed upon definition for terrorism is simply because that wouldput the entity engaged in protecting the world from terrorism at the top of the list. Altogether, the terrorist U.S. government and militarhave directly slaughtered literally millions of civilians in countries across the globe. The terrorist U.S. military and CIA have trained,armed, funded, provided intelligence and direct military support for fascist-regimes and right-wing governments around the world and thare chiefly responsible for instating dictatorial control over Muslim lands to despots that serve them at their bidding, witness the recentdebacle of King Abdullah in Saudi Arabia as he once again comes to the rescue of his masters agreeing to pump 2, 000,000 additional barreof oil per day. Other American servant-states have carried out appallingly vicious campaigns of state terrorism. With the direct support othe U.S. government they have committed the torture and genocide of additional millions of helpless civilian peoples all in the name of“vested interests” and “free societies.” One wonders, with a monopoly of force and the will and desire to use it, how the greatest militaryforce the world has ever known could be losing this war.

The Taliban’s ability to attack is increasing. Last year, 1,469 bombs exploded along Afghan roads, a number almost five times as high as in2004. There were 8,950 armed attacks on troops and civilian support personnel, 10 times more than only three years earlier. One hundreand thirty martyrdomoperations occurred in 2007. There were three in 2004. The Taliban now controls at least 20 districts of Kandahar.Writer Ullrich Fichner explains “Forty nations are embroiled in an unwinnable war in Afghanistan. Anyone who travels through the count

with Western troops soon realizes that NATO forces would have to be increased tenfold for peace to be even a remote possibility.” Indeethe asymmetrical, guerilla warfare waged in Afghanistan seems to be pointing toward another expulsion of foreign force. News of thePrison Break reminds the conscientious Muslim of a Story of Daood and Goliath in the Quran. Allah (SWT) says in 2:249-251), He and the faithful ones with him,- they said: "This day We cannot cope with Goliath and his forces." but thos

who were convinced that they must meet Allah, said: "How oft, by Allah's wil l , H ath a small force vanquished a bigone? Allah is with those who steadfast ly persevere." When they advanced to meet Goliath and his forces, they prayed: " Our LorPour out constancy on us and make our steps firm: Help us against those that reject fai th." By Allah’s will they routed them; anDavid slew Goliath; and All ah gave him power and wisdom and taught him whatever (else) He wil led. And did not All ah Checone set of people by means of another, the earth would indeed be ful l of mischief: But Allah is ful l of bounty to al l the worlds.

It is shame that Muslims in the West are invisible while these atrocities unfold. They may clothe rhetoric in criticism of Bush or the moraity in the secular West but they will never be caught calling for Muslims to rise up and stop the occupations. One should actually wonderwhy Muslims haven’t mobilized against the murder of their brothers and sisters and the thievery of their lands. Allah (SWT) says about thhypocrites in the Quran, “They watch you and wait; if you attain victory from Allah, they say to you, "Were we not with you?" But if the

disbelievers get a turn, they say to them, "Did we not side with you, and protect you from the believers?" Allah will judge between you othe Day of Resurrection. Allah will never permit the disbelievers to prevail over the believers. (4:141)In any sporting event it is apparent that momentum changes and flows throughout the competition; recent events in Afghanistan highlighsimilar situation. Muslims in the West should at least be working diligently for the withdrawal of the occupying forces. It is high time thevery Muslim work to do the little that he or she can to protect these atrocities committed against our brothers and sisters and to expothe reality of the situation. The sooner the foreign occupiers leave the better. The mujahedeen were preparing to face Afghanistan aNATO forces in the days after the prison break and at the time of this release. The press will likely claim that they were defeated and forcout of the additional provinces they now control. The air strikes will likely kill countless civilians and go unreported. Yet, not a voice cbe heard from amongst the Muslim population living in America. The Prophet Muhammad (SAWS) said that the believers are like obody, if a part of the body hurts the whole body hurts.” And he (SAWS) reported that “ The Muslim Ummah is a Unique ummah amongthe whole of mankind: Their Land is One, their War is one, their Peace is one, their Honor is One and their trust is one.” The questioremains when Allah aza wa jall gives victory to these mujahedeen and the hypocrites come and proclaim that we were with you the whotime, who will rescue them from the prison that has become their hearts. We ask you to reflect on this and consider working with us reveal and understand the actual situation facing the Muslims now. (CONTINUED ON BACK)…

he heard strange aqeedah, erroneous ideas cropping up he did not say "well let me fight the jihalater I will call him and talk to him, in the midst of the battle, that same minute, the same second, thrasul said to him "don’t say I am a Persian, say I am a Muslim man". The rasul did not want natioalism to spread in the Ummah; he did not want it to crop up much less to become widespread in hUmmah.

The Kafirs are dumping nationalism, we have a country called the USA [United Snakes Of Americthey used to fight, the south used to fight with the north, I am sure you know that, the civil war America. Why did North Carolina separate from Michigan Detroit. You have a state down theCarolina we have our own state in Detroit Michigan, this is where the two armies came from: NorCarolina and Michigan, the two parties, they did not split up, they united under the name USA.

The European are dumping nationalism, they are pushing forward for a single currency, a Europeacurrency, the European dollar, they are pushing forward to abandon visas between them, they wait to be United State of Europe, they are dumping nationalism, they know its obnoxious as the Rassaid. Are we the Muslims dumping nationalism? You are ‘kharu Ummah’- the best nation, ‘kuntukhairu Ummah ukhrijatulinnas’- you are the best nation ever raised up from mankind why? Bcause you enjoy that people should do the right and that people should stay away from eand you believe in Allah. Sura Imran Vs. 110. Some scholars say ‘that you enforce the right’ thedon’t like the word ‘you enjoy’ they say it’s too soft. You enforce the right and you eradicate thwrong and you believe in Allah.

You are supposed to set an example for mankind, but are you dumping nationalism? When Om Al- Khattab was the khalif, there was nothing like I am an Egyptian, I am a Saudi, there was nothilike Saudi anyway, Saudi is a new name which a family got the help of the British conquered thcountry, called it their name and say the whole nation belongs to them, this is the biggest theft of thcentury. A whole family stole an entire country; say you want to implement the Sharaiah you have

cut off your hands first. There was no such place called Palestine, Kuwait, there was Palestine bnot a sovereign state separated from the rest of the Muslim world, there was Iraq but not a soveeign state separated from the rest of the Muslim world, there was Egypt but not a sovereign staseparated from the rest of the Muslim world, and with one leader, the khalif, Omar ibn Al-Khattab Uthman or Ali or Muhawiyah. But when the Islamic caliphate was destroyed, this is when Nationaism came into the Ummah, as a matter of fact it was nationalism in the first place that destroyed thIslamic caliphate; because the Turks had it the Arabs said ‘we deserve it, we are better than thTurks’ and they took side with the British to destroy the caliphate in the name of Nationalism.

Nationalism is the religion of the shaitan. I am sure that you have some Pakistanis who think thare better than the Indians and some Indians who think they are better than Bangladesh evethough all three nations are Muslim nations. I am sure that killing is right here among the Muslimeven if it is not here, it is in the Ummah of the rasul, so much so that sometimes when a Muslboy, a pious Muslim boy approaches a Muslim father for his daughter he turns him down in thname of nationalism, many times it has happened.

So this kufur the Kafirs are dumping, the Americans and the Europeans, the religion of the shaitanationalism, which the Kafirs are dumping you are rushing to pick it up, when you are supposed be an example to mankind to follow, the Kafirs realized that this kufr is worthless, there is no goodit

Let us dump it so that we can be successful and dominate the rest of the world, they dumped it aftknowing it is obnoxious, you Muslims are rushing to pick it up, religion of the shaitan which is natioalism, when you are suppose to be an example for mankind aren’t you ashamed of yourselves.

NATIONALISM, SECULARISM, DEMOCRACY OF ISLAM (CONT. FROM

There are several hadith that about jihad in Afghanistan that come to mind as allthis is witnessed. The Prophet Muhammad is reported to have said, "When yousee the black banners coming from Khurasan then go to them even if that means

crawling over snow, the deputy of Allah the Mahdi will be among them."Another version says: "The black banners will come from the east and their heartswill be as firm as iron, whoever hears about them should join them and give alle-giance even if that means crawling across snow." There are countless hadith aboutthe Black Flag being raised in Khurasan what is known as Afghanistan today andsweeping across the world all the way to Jerusalem. One wonders what to makeof the events in this region that has pitted the world’s poorest country against thegreatest superpower the world has ever known.

In a recently released DVD from the Taliban, a Maulavi Jalaluddin Haqqani, acommander long though dead by the west, looks into the camera and says plainly,“now you know that I am still alive.” He continues and says of the occupation,"'We will fight them with patience…' 'This is not a battle of haste; this is a battleof patience. If a strong animal fights with a small and weak animal, the big animal

uses all its power, not against the enemy, but against itself.' Apparently resistanceto imperialism in Afghanistan, like Jalaluddin Haqqani, is far from dead and in fact seems as though it has never been more alive.
