The Military Threat

This danger is represented by the Shiite-Communist confederation that is backed up by Iran, Russia, India, Turkey and others. Though, they remain a secondary threat because of their weakening ranks and the increasing fear from the Taliban Movement which established its might, military wisdom and the support of Allah. And so, the struggle has now become almost confined between Taliban and Dostoum's Communist militias. The scholars of Afghanistan, particularly Sheikh Hakkani and Sheikh Younis Khalis, have given fatwas stating that fighting Dostoum is a Jihad between Muslims and atheist disbelievers, and that assisting Taliban by soul and money is an obligation. This was also supported by Sheikh Usama bin Ladin, the commander of the Arab Mujahideen in Afghanistan.

The latest battles have proved the genuineness of this view, especially the current accords held in the Northern fronts of Kabul, next to Dostoum's Communist colony.

In conclusion, it is evident from the reliable Mujahideen's reports in Afghanistan, that the Taliban Movement is an independent Islamic movement that strives for the application of Allah's Law and is not connected to any international regime or its agents in the region. Potentially, the Movement may represent a strong force that will restore the dignity of Afghanistan's Jihadi movement so that it will resume the role of liberating the Islamic lands from the atheistic, faithless American tyranny. Particularly, after the Mujahid Sheikh Usama bin Ladin declared war on the Crusade existence in the Arab region. However, this move is still weak from numerous aspects, especially noting that some of the Movement's leaders may be potentially hired to serve the politics of the White House in this strategic part of the world.

Hence, the assistance, support and admonition for the Movement is an Islamic obligation in order for them to surpass the conspiracies and afflictions, and for the Afghani ship to transit to the safety shore by Allah's Will.
