- In light of the London donor conference, which would
amount to nothing considering the legacy of so-called reconstruction in
Afghanistan; it is prudent to make some points.
-
- It is a tragedy of immense proportion that no one even
dare to address the abomination that is called life with inevitable demise
at every corner resulting from the massive amount of uranium munitions
used by the American forces and their allies. Our so-called Afghans self-sold
surrogates are more than happy to jump on the bandwagon and express their
gratitude for the token thrown at our people when in fact their entire
existence is put in question by the massive use of weapons of mass destruction.
Let the progress of the Bonn agreement tell the children of Tora Bora and
Shah-e-Kot suffering from Leukemia and Esophageal cancers, or the massive
number of sudden abortions occurring among women and animals in those areas.
-
- Another advancement is the indignity brought upon the
Afghans (Pashtuns) by the dishonorable minorities of Afghanistan, namely
Tajiks, Uzbeks, Sadat, and some Hazaras sending their daughters and wives
to service American and NATO soldiers. The thousands of these Tajiks and
other minorities take pride in sending their daughters to utter indignity.
-
- When their daughters complain, their fathers reply---Khair
Ast Dollar Mayta-- (it is okay they give dollars). This is the legacy of
reconstruction, bravo.
-
- Nowhere in the Pashtun heartland would anyone dare to
take side with Americans forces, or commit indignity, as do those Tajiks
and others in areas dominated by the minority populations in Afghanistan.
-
- In fact, Pashtunsmen and women-- fight like lions against
the American forces and sacrifice their lives while minorities, such as
Tajik, Uzbek and others sell themselves.
-
- Another legacy is the corruption of bribery and sheer
robbery by the officials of this puppet regime eager to make dollars. Unfortunately,
they do not even accept Afghan currency but rather demand dollars. For
example to get a permit to construct a building, one has to pay $80,000
in bribes in Kabul and else where.
-
- Kabul used to be the Center of Proud Afghan Mujahids,
now it is the center of indignity, all because of these disgraceful people
among Tajiks, Uzbeks, and other minorities. Now I wonder why ethnic cleansing
occurs, and some in Afghanistan say it would be fully justifiable to
have ethnic cleansing in Afghanistan for the shame these minorities brought
upon our country and heritage. But that would be another disaster. Of course,
there are decent people among them but their existence is utterly shattered
by this indignity. What a shame.
-
- After billions of dollars, there are no paved roads in
the capital Kabul let alone other places. Children and women are dying
from cold and disease.
-
- Abject poverty is every where and hopes of revival
are no where. The billions of dollars donated went into the pockets of
NGOs and powerful government officials, while the poor remain poor. Another
problem is Americanization of the system, namely whole sale firing of professionals
with decades of experience under the pretext of making hospitals and offices
efficient. The truth is the US wants to implement capitalism in Afghanistan
and bring open market when in fact no has food to eat or money to pay for
healthcare. The shortage of physicians and health technicians is ignored
for the sake of this garbage called free market. Now there are no private
companies to hire these professionals with decades of experience. It would
have been nice if other opportunities existed, but there are none.
-
- Today in Afghanistan, there are a few very rich and the
rest extremely poor, thanks to the United States of America.
-
- So, everyone should keep their cheers at a low gear,
we have not achieved much, in fact, we are an occupied and are disgraceful
not to fight. Cheer then when we rid our country of the forces of occupation.
Only then we would proudly say that we have redeemed the Pride of Mirwis
Neeka (the Father of our homeland at 1709), let's hope we have it within
ourselves,
-
- Sincerely,
