NATO Secretary-General Jens
Stoltenberg absurdly calls Afghanistan an Alliance success story. As
ISAF (International Security Assistance Force) “completes” its “mission
at the end of this year.”
“This unprecedented international effort has contributed to a
better future for Afghan men, women and children,” Stoltenberg claims.
“And it has enhanced global security.”
Disaster more accurately describes things. Conditions are horrific. Perhaps worse than ever. A testimony to US-led NATO high crimes against peace.
Afghanistan’s new puppet government agreed to let around 10,000 US troops remain indefinitely. Immune from Afghan laws. Free to rampage with impunity. On the pretext of serving in an advisory capacity.
Afghanistan today reflects “the grand illusion of the American cause.” What CIA officials called Vietnam decades earlier. After over 13 years of neo-colonial war, Washington won’t cut its losses and leave. For good reason.
Afghanistan is strategically important. A geopolitical prize. Straddling the Middle East, South and Central Asia. In Eurasia’s heartland. Permanent occupation is planned. War won’t end. At issue is exploiting Eurasia’s vast oil, gas and other resources.
Significant Afghan resources rarely discussed.
