About Taliban 

For the last two months, the Taliban is strengthening its foothold on Afghanistan. And the Afghan government is losing its control. According to the news reports, 90% of Afghanistan’s bordersare now under the Taliban’s control. 

Who are these people in Taliban? Where have they come from? Where does Osama bin Laden fit into the story? And why did the USA send its army into Afghanistan? Come, let’s get to know about this frightening piece of history in today’s video. Friends, in this video I’ll start the story from 1979. 

I told you about the events that took place before 1979 in a previous video. If you haven’t watched it,you can watch it after you’ve watched this. The link will be in the description below. In 1979, Afghanistan’s President and Communist leader, Nur Muhammad Taraki gets murdered. After this, the Soviet Union starts its interference in Afghanistan. Though Taraki was a communist leader, he was murdered by a fellow communist leader. 

By Hafizullah Amin. Hafizullah Amin first arrested Taraki,and the murdered him. Like I told you in the last video, the communist parties in Afghanistan were divided into two factions. And there was a lot of infighting between them. Taraki wasn’t completely innocent. He had tried to murdered Hafizullah Amin. While the infighting between the communists was going on, but at the same time, the communists and Islamists were also at war with each other in Afghanistan at this point. 

Around this time in 1979 a revolution took place in Afghanistan’s neighbour, Iran That is known as the 1979 Iranian Revolution. Actually, the situation in Iran at this time, was quite a bit similar to the situation in Afghanistan. There were Islamists on one side,and Leftists and Communists on the other. Iran’s king Mohammad Reza, believed in modernism and secularism. 

And he had brought a lot of economic development for his country. Along with secularism. But at the same time, he was very attached to being on the throne. Because of his greed, he had the protestors in the opposition murdered. The voices of opposition were quashed. Political parties were outlawed. And the Parliament was dismissed. For these reasons, a revolution against him took place. And in 1979, the Islamists took over Iran. Watching this happen in Iran, In Afghanistan, Hafizullah Amin, who was a Communist, was worried about an Islamist takeover in Afghanistan. 

To avoid this, he thought that he needed to appease the religious conservative people. For this, he started constructing mosques. Started including the name of Allah in his speeches. Distributed copies of the Quran. All this despite being a communist. Because he was trying to somehow get the Islamists to his side as well. But people didn’t like him at all. He committed many atrocities against the people of Afghanistan. He is actually considered to be a semi-psychopath in Afghanistan. 

You’d notice an interesting thing here friends, all these leaders,Hafizaullah Amin, Taraki and Mohammad Reza, whatever ideology they may portray to the world, there lies deep greed for power in all of them. In their greed for power, they can twist their ideologies to any extent. It’s something that’s there even in the political leaders today. Regardless of the political party they belong to. 

It’s still seen. Dictators can make up any excuse to remain in power. It was also seen in the Soviet Union When Lenin lost power Stalin had his opponent murdered to get power. What happened next was that in December 1979, before the Islamists could take over Afghanistan, the Soviet Union intervened by sending its forces. The Soviet Union then had Hafizullah Amin murdered. 

There was an ideological reason for it as well as a geopolitical reason. The ideological reason was that the ideology of Communism was losing ground in Afghanistan and was being misrepresented by Hafizullah Amin. So the Soviet Union wanted to lend its support to the real Communism ideology. The geopolitical reason was that there was the Cold War between the Soviet Union and the USA. If the Soviet Union could gain influence in Afghanistan, then another country could come under the influence of the Soviet Union. 

It would’ve benefited the Soviet Union in the fight against the USA. After killing Hafizullah Amin, Babrak Karmal was installed as the new head of government. He was also a leader of the Saur Revolution. After coming into power, he had more than 2,700 political prisoners released. He replaced the red Communist flag with a new one. He promised to bring in a new Constitution of Afghanistan. Apart from this, free election, freedom of speech, right to protest and freedom of religion were also promised. Finally, it seemed like there would be peace in Afghanistan. 

And Afghanistan would move in the right direction. But how could the USA have silently watched Afghanistan progress? The USA could see that the Soviet Union had established its influence in Afghanistan. Even in the countries like Vietnam and Ethiopia, the Soviet Union had humiliated America. America was a step below the Soviet Union in this war. 

America decided to use Afghanistan as an opportunity to take its revenge against the Soviet Union. How could they take revenge? America took this revenge  by supporting the opposition ideology, Mujahideen, in Afghanistan. Countries like Pakistan and Saudi Arabia were already supporting the Islamist Mujahideen in Afghanistan. And America joined them in doing so. The CIA conducted its largest-ever secret operation to do this. 

They named it Operation Cyclone. CIA director Robert Gates had confessed it later how the then US President Jimmy Carter had authorised a secret aid of $500,000 to be given to the Mujahideen on 3rd July 1979. Even after the change in power in the US,  millions of dollars were given to the Mujahideen. It was happening even after Ronald Reagan came into power. 

Look at this photo, Reagan is with the Mujahideen. Along with America’s CIA, Pakistan’s ISI,British Secret Agency MI6, and Saudi Arabia was also supporting Islamist Mujahideen. Who were these Mujahideen? Initially, they were only guerrilla fighters that fought while hiding in the mountains. But after getting so much support, not only did they have weapons, not only guns but even anti-aircraft missiles were also available to them. That’s when the Soviet Union started feeling the effects of the fight.

In 1988, Afghanistan’s President was Mohammad Najibullah. He signs the Geneva accord with Pakistan. It’s basically a peace agreement that neither country will interfere in the affairs of the other country. 

The guarantors of the peace agreement were the Soviet Union and the USA. The USA promised that if the Soviet Union withdraws its armies from Afghanistan, then the USA would stop supplying weapons to the Mujahideen. Finally, after 9 years, in February 1989, the Soviet Union withdraws its army from Afghanistan. The Soviet Union leaves Afghanistan. And there were many reasons for it. The Soviet Union was breaking up into pieces. 

The Soviet Union then get divided into multiple countries. And Russia becomes a major country among them. That’s a separate story, we should focus on Afghanistan. Najibullah tries his best to end this conflict. He reduces his powers. In 1987, a new Constitution is brought in for Afghanistan. Afghanistan would cease to be a one-party state. Like the other communist countries of the time. The other parties could contest elections as well. 

In 1988, new Parliamentary elections are conducted, And Najibullah’s party, the PDPA wins the election. And Najibullah retains his power. In 1990, Afghanistan is declared to be an Islamic Republic. All references to Communism is removed. Najibullah tried to appease the religious conservative people in the country. So that there could be peace in the country. Najibullah also tries to get Foreign Aid into Afghanistan. And to start private investment. But despite doing so much, America continues to supply weapons to the Mujahideen. 

And the Mujahideen group does not step back even a bit. They boycott the elections and even after everything, they think that Islam was still in danger. This civil war continues. The Soviet Union tries to help Najibullah by sending foreign aid. But that doesn’t help. Because in 1991, the Soviet Union breaks apart itself. Like I told you. And in 1992, Mujahideen wins this civil war. Though Mujahideen was an Islamist group it was made up of people from various ethnicities. 

And in it too, there were many people greedy for power. Infighting begins in the Mujahideen group for power. Finally, in 1992, a person comes into power. He becomes the new leader of the Islamic State of Afghanistan. His name was Burhanuddin Rabbani. By the next few years, a new enemy had risen. Called the Taliban. In 1996, Taliban removes this Islamist Mujahideen leader from power. Who are the Taliban? In the Pashto language, ‘Taliban’ means student. Initially, the leader of this Taliban group was Mullah Omar. 

He formed this group with 50 students. But with time, some refugees returned to Afghanistan from Pakistan. They later became a part of this group. These people were even more religious extremists. Even more extremely right-wing people. Compared to the Mujahideen as well. These Afghan refugees had apparently learned this extremism in some schools of Pakistan. But religion was not the only thing involved. As I said, there were many factions of ethnic groups in the Mujahideen. 

Taliban also believed in the ideology of Pashtun nationalism. In addition to being Islamists. Pakistan and Saudi Arabia supported the Taliban. And it is said that America created Taliban. If we look at it technically, friends, this isn’t true. But practically, there is some weightage to this argument. Because America basically tried its best, all the efforts of bringing democracy into Afghanistan, were all ruined by supplying weapons to the Mujahideen. And an environment was created that enabled the birth of the Taliban. 

Not only weapons. But America apparently spent millions of dollars in printing textbooks in Afghanistan. These books were filled with violent images. And used to promote the extremist ideology. Later, these books funded by America were used by the Taliban. By September 1996, the Taliban had successfully captured Kabul. And establishes the Islamic Emirate of Afghanistan. In the beginning, the common people were supportive of the Taliban. Because they could finally expect some stability in the country. 

The fight going on for so many years was at an end. And in the beginning, the Taliban did indeed make some areas of Afghanistan peaceful. But with time, the conservative ideology of Taliban, came to the forefront. And the common people get a glimpse of it. Taliban bans a lot of things in Afghanistan. The list of the banned items is so long that your eyes will pop out after seeing the things banned by Taliban. Under Taliban’s rule, men had to compulsorily keep a beard. And women had to keep their bodies covered in burqas. 

Women couldn’t leave their homes without being accompanied by a male relative. And because Taliban believed in the ideology of Pashtun ideology, the non-Pashtun ethnicities, become victims of ethnic cleansing. Thousands of Muslims are killed. Christians get prosecuted. Hindus are given badges so they can be distinguished from the Muslims. A very important part of Afghanistan’s cultural history, were statues of Budhha. Those were destroyed by the Taliban. Obviously, former President Najibullah is also murdered by them.
