Hekmatyar vows to defeat US
2005-11-10
Gulbudin Hekmatyar, a fugitive Afghan guerrilla leader, said war in his country would not end until US-led forces left and urged Islamic groups to unite to expel them as they drove out Soviet forces in the 1980s, a newspaper said on Wednesday. He called on mujahideen, or holy warriors, to unite and drive out their “real enemies” as they had driven out the Soviets, the newspaper said. He described Afghanistan’s presidential election last year and September’s legislative elections as “futile”.
Cheeze. Hek's still around? Haven't heard much from him lately. Has he gotten a new army together?
Do they all throw like girls?

What's noteworthy is that this asswipe doesn't see what he and everyone like him does to his fellow Muslims by issuing these religious calls to arms. Equally worth mentioning is that even as their religion's image takes hit after hit with every appeal of this sort, his fellow Muslims, the supposed "moderates", seldom if ever criticize the people inflicting the damage.
