The inhumane incidence of September 11 changed the fate of Afghanistan; the presence of Al-Qaida’s number one leader Osama Bin Laden in Afghanistan turned a blessing in disguise for Afghans. Notwithstanding, the mercy diverted the fortune of ill-fated Afghans, with Taliban’s (Amir-Ul-Momineen) Mullah Omar denial to hand over the perpetrators of attack on World Trade Center, to US. It depicted the magnanimous commitment of Taliban extending unanimous support for Al-Qaida that turned Afghanistan a slaughterhouse for innocent civilians.
Taliban launched a bloody war against US and Afghans that claimed the lives of tens of thousands of innocents since US’s invasion in December 2001. In that pursuit a number of Taliban was incarcerated and some met their fates, others still have resorted to give a tough time to afghan and foreign troops.
To pursue their forged and alienating agenda Taliban continued to spread terror by persecuting innocent civilians and true guarantors of peace and security to Afghans. The previous bloodshed in the Western province of Farah, where more than 50 people were killed and 100 others wounded in a bomb-gun attack on a courthouse, had sufficiently proved that the Taliban are not going to give up violence till the conquest of strong political hold.
President Hamid Karzai’s soft instance for Taliban is depicted on several occasions. Formerly he offered Mullah Omar to run for presidential election. Subsequent to Farah bomb blast he came forth pleading Taliban not to play in the hands of foreigners as if Taliban are immature kids. It is unpopular and unappreciated discourse pursued by incumbent government.
The fact being the credibility of Taliban is doubtful and might pose sever threat to democracy having despotic brought up. Taliban have been the puppet serving multinational interest. Taliban’s reiterating demand for immediate withdrawal of US forces, a primary condition for peace progression seems to be the future prospects of their ill-intentions.
The greater and dominant might of Taliban can be estimated by their consecutive strikes at will on important foreigner and governmental institutions and have succeeded deploying number of insurgents in ANA and ANP. In spite of arbitrary release of large number of Taliban members’ negligible shift in their violent attitude is observed.
This perception is dominant and admissive that both Taliban and Al-Qaida shares common ideology and execute common agenda which drove Taliban so violent and anti state for long. If the international community backed and government initiated peace talks bore fruition and Taliban were given greater participation in political domain of war-torn Afghanistan even then continuance of Taliban’s political and financial support to Al-Qaida operating in Afghanistan or abroad can’t be ruled out, with inclusion to their demands for reinforcement of radical amendments in the constitution overemphasized.
