The truth about the new imperialistic war of USA
Part 2
The real goal of the American imperialists in Afghanistan is to use it, taking advantage of its geographical position, in order to pursue their political and military plans in a wider area. Therefore, they try to impose a government dependent on them, which serves their interests. These plans are a part of the well-known “big game” that Kipling has also mentioned. What takes place now in Afghanistan is the most bloody and dark episode, since the lies of the USA’s propagandistic campaign now collapse and, thus, their real goals are revealed.
While the bombings and the massive massacres of innocent people continue in Afghanistan, conversations and negotiations take place in the background about the future puppet-regime of the country. Of course, the American plans were visible to a careful observer, all over from the beginning. But for the simple people, the real goals were hidden behind an intense campaign of lies operated by the Mass Media under control.
However, now anyone can see that it is not possible to hunt a terrorist by putting fire and burning a whole country of 650.000 square kilometers and 26 million inhabitants. The Americans are not so paranoid as to be unaware of what they are doing! Some days ago, Bush ordered the arrest or murder of Bin Laden, while Blair estimated that it is more probable to murder than to arrest Bin Laden. However, this kind of actions could be performed without bombings and murders of innocent people. The answer to this reasonable question of any sensible human is very obvious. Bin Laden’s hunting is only a detail in comparison to the general plan of USA for the area.
The Americans declare that their pursuit is the foundation of a “broad-based”, “multiethnic” government in Kabul, with the participation of mediocre members of the Taleban, members of the North Alliance, leaders of various tribes, Afghans from abroad, all under the guidance of the ex-kind. They claim that their goal is the re-composition of tribal leaders meeting, the well-known Loigerga they state that this is going to be a temporary government until elections could be made.
How “wide” and “multinational” can really be such a government?
Both the crimes of the Taleban after 1995 and the crimes of the so-called North Alliance against the people of Afghanistan after 1979 are well known. There is almost no member of North Alliance leadership that had no share in any of these crimes.
The name of the Taleban has been a cover behind which the former Mujahedin, parts of the Khalk and Parcham (the former Soviet-friendly party) and the students of Pakistan’s religious schools were hidden. After 1984, all of them were used by the Americans in order pursuit their interests. For example, Mula Omar, who was a former Mujahedin, and General Tanay, who was a former Minister of Defense during Najibulah government (the last Soviet-friendly leader).
On the other side, North Alliance consists of former Mujahedin who approached Russia, India and Iran in order to get support and reinforcement, after the Americans gave their support to the Taleban.
As far as the leaders of the different tribes are concerned, this is not a “privilege” of the North Alliance uniquely, but of the Taleban as well. Tribal leaders participate in both sides, coming from different nations and tribes of Afghanistan. This fact does not give "broad base" to North Alliance, as some people claim.
Finally, the immigrant people from Afghanistan, who are in the lists of Americans as candidate participants in a future political solution, are actually various representatives of Islamists in other countries or former and present CIA agents.
The so-called "broad-based" and "multiethnic" political solution that is pursued is nothing more than the reuse of all the old criminal versions that led to Afghanistan tragedy. It is "broad" for American interests, while it has a minimal base of support among the people of Afghanistan. This is the meaning of being "broad based" and "multiethnic".
People in Afghanistan have the right to create a really wide, democratic and independent government against American interests and completely separated from all those responsible of crimes against them.
Nevertheless, is it easy for the Americans to succeed in their efforts to impose a political solution in Afghanistan? In my opinion, it is extremely difficult, in the same way that the military operation that takes place turned out to be difficult. And even more, since it is obvious that while the war tragedy continues, political problems become even more complicated and the tension within the so-called global alliance is intensified. After the beginning of the bombings, the contradictions became more apparent. Russia, Iran and India, even E.C. do not agree with the participation of the Taleban in the future government, while it is not possible for USA and Pakistan not to use them. In this process, the political/diplomatic conflict will become more acute. Russia, Iran and other neighboring countries might not have the possibility to create a powerful opposing pole of influence in Afghanistan, but they cannot be ignored in any future political solution.
The so-called "broad-based" government is not a new discovery. Since the civil war, discussions and negotiations took place for the creation of such a government, under the guidance of U.N. and with the support of all the involved neighboring countries and USA-Russia. All the efforts, however, ended up in a failure and there is no sign that this might change now.
The countdown for the activation of the contradictions within North Alliance will begin especially if it takes control of the cities of Mazar e Sharif and Kabul, with the assistance of the Americans. It is well known that USA does not trust North Alliance. Both because they believe that N.A. cannot serve their plans completely and effectively and because N.A. has connections with other external neighboring powers. Their current relationship is based on a tactical alliance. At the same time, they try to strengthen their relationships with parts of mediocre Taleban. However, the recent event of A. Hak’s execution by the Taleban shows that the situation is not easy and gets more and more complicated. We will find out soon whether any of the different political plans will succeed, however, I believe that the difficulties are too many to overcome.
The reason is that the prerequisites for the so-called reconciliation are important changes for all sides. However, there is no evidence that these changes have occurred. Is it possible that the so-called afghan parties, which are actually military schemes, become transformed to political parties? Can the military members and the various military leaders become politicians? Can the lack of trust among them be canceled? Is it possible to achieve a serious disarmament of the various groups and gangs? In my opinion, based on the current tragic events, the only possible answer to these questions is a negative one.
The probable versions recently presented are, either that ex-king returns or that U.N. undertakes the political administration of the country. Both versions include serious problems. Especially the one that concerns the ex-king, since even those who want his return, consider him only as a new puppet and nothing more.
Bombings have caused new problems and have made the situation more complicate. It seems that USA want to avoid the type of adventure that the Soviets had and therefore they do not proceed to typical ground operation. The recent events show that they are stacked, and it remains a crucial question how they will manage to get out of this situation.
The only true victims in this situation are the people of Afghanistan, having from one side the cold, the hunger, the poverty and the life of a refugee and from the other side bombings and death, and without any hope that this tragedy might stop. A true human tragedy! Which can be the way out for the people of Afghanistan? And which is the actual responsibility of all the people in earth, watching American imperialists kill thousands of innocent people?
