Afghan War Reveals Truth About American Decline

The Afghan conflict enters its 12th extraordinary year and the Taliban seized the opportunity to mock US/NATO forces and rightfully so. Pathetic and delusional US/NATO forces have made no progress whatsoever in Afghanistan -- regardless of how distorted the Western media portrays the clearly LOST WAR!

Western forces in Afghanistan have been reduced to using terror tactics, night raids, urinating on the dead, targeting women and children, funeral and wedding parties, clan gatherings and other social events, YET not an inch has been gained fighting very low-tech tribal fighters.

It is remarkable that the western press even carried today's story -- how the most well armed high tech military the world has ever seen has been stopped dead by a bunch of low tech, rag-tag, DEDICATED tribal fighters.

You see, wars are won by men of character, not technology or any other factor; what is winning the day in Afghanistan is the dogged determination and unwavering perseverance of brave, fiercely independent fighting people that refuse to be conquered, enslaved or occupied.

Now think of all the lies, war crimes and western misinformation/propaganda associated with the longest war America has ever fought (and LOST) and come to your senses regarding the profit driven incompetents that are behind the war and steering the American nation over a cliff in their manic pursuit of profit.

How is it America has lost this war as it lost Vietnam? Answer, because the Afghan people have more strength of character and willpower in their little toe than an entire battalion of allied troops, or would YOU rather put forward another theory or excuse?

The war was lost years ago, but ruling western corporate powers would not face REALITY, especially while they continued to pull a profit while leaving the American nation to carry the cost of misplaced wars on its already (economically) broken back.

It's the PEOPLE that make the difference as Afghans have proven throughout history.

The American people are aware that minority ruling elites control Washington and the President. They are aware that plutocrats have hijacked their democracy and corrupted critical State institutions, especially the LEGAL system, YET, in stark contrast to passionate, fiercely independent Afghans, the American people remain PASSIVE, timid and frightened of their own shadows when urgent remedial ACTION is required. Take your nation back and restore it to its former glory, you cringing American slaves -- are you really so terrified of a tiny group of Zionist bankers and plutocrats that have stolen your democracy/nation? The world is watching your pathetic cowardice, America; free your nation as the Afghan people are freeing their homeland from civilian killing, Corporate/Zionist Banker terrorists in control of the Pentagon and White House.

It is clear today that the only way America can be restored to its former glory is by another social revolution, but the HOPELESS American people have 'better' things to do, like getting retrenched in favour of outsourced labour, or watching MORONIC American idol or Letterman and drinking/medicating themselves into oblivion on Big Pharma's drugs, or allowing themselves to be deceived and terrified by very bad spin doctors, ad-men and 'perception managers' -- LIARS and deceivers in other words!

After 15-20 years of needless wars, wanton destruction and rapidly declining living standards, you would think that even inept, cowardly, Americans would react against the minority forces ruining their nation, but sadly Americans no longer possess the fighting spirit that created their Republic; America is undergoing a very pronounced social decline which appears to be irreversible. So expect more losses in the future, you cowardly star-spangled, dreamboats.

Mass media report follows:

Taliban mock US as Afghan war enters 12th year

America's longest war entered its 12th year Sunday, with the anniversary marked by a Taliban statement claiming that NATO forces are "fleeing Afghanistan" in "humiliation and disgrace".

The US led the invasion on October 7, 2001 to topple the Taliban government for harbouring Al Qaeda leader Osama bin Laden after the September 11 attacks on New York and Washington.

The Taliban were quickly routed, but launched an insurgency that grew in strength over the years until NATO had some 130,000 troops from 50 countries defending the Western-backed government of President Hamid Karzai.

The troops have now begun pulling out and all foreign combat forces will be gone by the end of 2014 according to a withdrawal schedule agreed by the US and NATO.

"With the help of Allah, the valiant Afghans under the Jihadi leadership of Islamic Emirate defeated the military might and numerous strategies of America and NATO alliance," the Taliban said in a statement Sunday.

"And now after eleven years of unceasing terror, tyranny, crimes and savagery, they are fleeing Afghanistan with such humiliation and disgrace that they are struggling to provide an explanation".

A total of 3,199 NATO soldiers have been killed in the war, more than 2,000 of them Americans. Most deaths occurred in the past five years as Taliban attacks escalated, according to icasualties.com.

This year, official statistics showed that deaths in the Afghan security forces are running five times higher than those for NATO, as the Afghans take on increasing responsibilities before the Western withdrawal.

The US and NATO say Afghan forces will be capable of taking over the fight against the Taliban after 2014, but many analysts predict a bloody new multi-factional civil war.
