...and I'll be squinting at it on Al-Jizz from my suite in Quetta, boys, so don't let me down.
Kabul- Taliban chief Mullah Omar called on his fellow Afghans to wage a united jihad or "holy war" on western soldiers in Afghanistan and urged them to prepare the defeat of the "invaders". That meant that Afghans across the country would have to put aside their tribal, linguistic and regional differences first.
Oh, sure. That should be nooooo problem...
He added: "As the freedom fight is going on well in the country, there is sign of panic in enemies' fronts and their international partners are retreating, in this sensitive time."
Yes. If it wasn't for all these dead guys, we'd be doing all right...
Mullah Omar also called on Afghans working with the government, parliament or senate, in the provincial council or with the police, army or intelligence "to join their brothers who struggle for the freedom of the country."
Is good deal. Really. Free Pakistani vacation and all the lead you can eat...
He congratulated his fellow Afghans on the 88th year of independence from former British forces, but said: "Our country is once again occupied by the same forces," adding, "Our homes are destroyed, our children have become orphans, our courageous fighters are either martyred or are spending days and nights and thousands of invading forces are stationed in our country and our air space is covered with their aircrafts."
Now there's a recruitment speech. Where do ya sign up?
Mullah Omar also called on Taliban fighters to try to win the hearts of the people: "You should try with all of your ability to avoid harming people during your jihadi operations".
...unless, of course, you're hiding behind them.
Taliban attacks and operations by international forces in Afghanistan have claimed many civilian lives. Analysts say that the insurgents consciously hazard fatalites among civilians in order to destabilize the central goverment in Kabul.
So join Taliban! Better them then you!
