Liberate the Afghan people from the clutches of Taliban
Ever since the announcement of the withdrawal of the US troops from Afghanistan, the rebel Taliban forces are advancing. By capturing one after one cities and towns, now, they reached the gates of Kabul, the capital of Afghanistan. The Afghani people are traumatized and women are extremely worried over these developments. Already, they are strictly imposing the religious code of conduct in the captured part of the Afghanistan. What happened when the same fundamentalist group ruled Afghanistan during 2001. And we know what happened during those tumultuous years. One side, a team of ‘radicalized’ jihadists entered the US and wrecked havoc on September 11, 2001. Even India faced the onslaught of ‘jihadists’ in Kashmir due to this ‘Afghan-conflict.’
Taliban are ruthless terrorists. They don’t have any place in the civilized world. They deny freedom of speech. They never allow women to educate. They don’t even allow women to go out independently. We all know that they carried out public executions, chopping the hands of thieves, and stone women if they’re accused of adultery. All these barbarian acts will be carried out in the name of God.
Already UN Chief has warned that “directing attacks against civilians is a serious violation of International Humanitarian Law and amounts to a war crime.” As per the latest news reports, already Afghani people are starting to flee from their homeland to seek asylum elsewhere. This is certainly a worrisome trend. There is no point in talking with these ‘fanatic’ jihadists. It is the time; the UN should act swiftly to gather the world leader to get the nod for sending the UN Peace Keeping Force to Afghanistan. Saving the Afghan People and its rich cultural heritage must be our top priority. Otherwise, there is no point for us to live in the same planet at a time when the barbarians are slaughtering their own people without any mercy.
