British Troops Withdrawal from Afghanistan Good for British Interests
Jamadi-us-Sani 10, 1431 A.H, Tuesday, May 25, 2010
In the Name of Allah, the Most Beneficent, the Most Merciful.
A few days after the formation of the coalition government in
England, three high-ranking officials of the new government have arrived in
Kabul, comprising of Foreign Secretary William Hague, Defense Secretary Liam
Fox and International Development Secretary, Andrew Mitchell. British Defense
Secretary Liam Fox, in an interview with Times daily, said that he wanted an
earlier withdrawal of British troops from Afghanistan. He said that their main
job was to secure British cities.
During the past nine years, America tried to prevent any split from occurring
in the ranks of the coalition of the Crusaders or at least prevail on them to
remain tightlipped about the ground realities. The aim was to avoid the morale
sagging soldiers from plunging further into the abyss of morale aggravation.
But the status quo is beyond America’s control. They are not able to keep the
public of the world in state of confusion and uncertainty any further. And for
that matter, they find it hard to use other countries as a shield in their
venture for expansionist goals.
Liam Fox repeated his assertion in Kabul, saying the
British troops’ surge had reached its climax and that the troop’s casualties
were mounting in parallel with the increase in their numbers. He said, Britain
is not in a position to play the role of international police in Afghanistan.
He added, our focus is to maintain security of British cities and that the
British troops had come to Afghanistan for their vital interests. He ruled out
British troops dispatch to Kandahar, saying that we should not start every
thing from scratch there.
The above assertions by the high-ranking British delegation prove that the
British new government like other European countries is reaching a conclusion
that the current war in Afghanistan is not in their interest economically by
inflicting on them both material and soul losses.
No question, the belligerent policies of former two British prime ministers,
Tony Blair and G., Brown goaded and enabled America to invade Afghanistan and
Iraq; trample down national independence of both countries; kill and injure
hundred of thousands of citizens of the said countries and torture million
others who have continuously been grappling with various physical and
psychological problems.
We were witness to Tony Blair’s and Brown propaganda drive, mobilizing public
opinion in the favor of commencement of the war in Afghanistan and Iraq. They
contributed to the invasions in the shape of troops and billions of dollars.
But these policies and goals were, in the first place, colonialist in nature,
so those who started the adventure and prolonged it, all met with a fiasco.
They achieved nothing from their labor in the past nine years. Now their
citizens ask them, why have you started the war and lost hundreds of soldiers
and billions of dollars to begin with?
We believe, the British new government intention to pull its troops out of
Afghanistan is a timely and rationale step, being in the interest of the
people of Afghanistan. We urge other countries, not to kill the miserable
Afghans and their own troops in addition to squandering their resources for
the maintenance of the illegitimate interests of America. They should not
tarnish their own and their countries reputation and good name by continuing
the war crimes in Afghanistan.
