[Tolo News] Around 53 forces of Evil have renounced violence and joined the Afghan grinding of the peace processor, bigwigs in Afghan Peace Commission said on Monday.

Sebghatullah Mujaddadi, head of the Afghan peace commission, said despite lack of funding to provide job opportunities to forces of Evil who renounce violence, but it has been able to convince around 10,000 cut-throats to join the grinding of the peace processor.

The forces of Evil were active against government in different provinces including Ghazni, Pashtun-infested Logar, Maidan Wardak, Khost and Kapisa, the peace commission said.

"We are trying to provide them jobs and salaries so that they earn a living. We also instruct related governors to give them land and to make a living for themselves," Mr Mujaddadi said.

A top military official in Afghan Defence Ministry urged all jihad boys, who are in contact with peace commission, to stop war and take part in reconstruction Afghanistan.

"We hope the peace commission gains some more achievements to attract forces of Evil in the country," said General Aziz Ahmad, a top official in defence department.

Peace commission said more than 20,000 tribal elders are in contact with the commission and greatly back the grinding of the peace processor.

#3  They'll have backslidden by April and be back to their normal looting, bombing, and killing schedule.

Perhaps. No doubt some have that intention, but it depends on whether our guys have in the meantime left anything for them to go back to. We don't take winter off.
