| Mullah Omar issues 'Victory Declaration' | |
| 2010-02-17 | |
| The Taliban Movement of Afghanistan has issued new guidelines/directives titled 'Nusrat (Victory) Declaration' to its fighters to use all available means to target the interests of the United States and Europe. The 'Nusrat Declaration' issued by Mulla Brother, the second-in-command of the Islamic Emirate (a term Taliban use to refer to their movement), says: "America and Nato announced that they would deploy more troops in Afghanistan. However, we warn them to refrain from the practice and if they ignored our warning, our Mujahideen are ready to defend their soil.
"Under this strategy, I order all our fellowmen to be ready for all types of war ranging from gun to suicide, guerrilla warfare and target the interests of foreigners as well the present government which is led by stooges of America and Europe." According to the declaration, a copy of which was made available to The News here on Tuesday, the Taliban fighters have been directed to target the foreign forces, local police and Afghan army, politicians, government ministers, parliament members, government offices, diplomatic missions, defence and interior ministries. "With the Grace of Allah, Mujahideen should start attacks, encircle the enemies, attack without missing time if a target comes to it, enhance capacity of intelligence gathering, establish local intelligence units and also keep an eye on spies," says the document. Through the declaration, the Taliban Movement warned all private and government officials to refrain from and stop working for foreigners and the present government and help Mujahideen. It said if they could not do so, then resign from the office and wait for the establishment of the Islamic government of Taliban. It said this exercise is a must for the freedom of the country and regaining dignity; otherwise, they would be responsible for their acts. "The Islamic Emirate warns all technical and non-technical staff and organisations, including building contractors, transporters etc to refrain from construction of civil and defence buildings, roads and other infrastructure to be used by foreign forces, NGOs and the present government and not to rent or sell any transport to the abovementioned institutions for safeguarding the interests of Afghanistan. As all referred above came here to capture our land, respect and honour, we have to defeat them and force them to withdraw from the country. If anyone violated our instructions, he would be punished and no excuse would be accepted from them," the directive concluded. | |

| #4 I am reminded of the one panel comic by S. Gross, that shows an elderly, but enthusiastic Roman man sitting on a chaise lounge, next to a rather unhappy looking naked woman. He is happily shouting "Veni!" Good for you, gramps. |

| #1 HMMM, HMMMM, so IOW M.OMAR has issued a tote ULTIMATUM. That being said, my instincts are telling me there's more to "NUSRAT" than the topical definition. |
