RAWA:
The People of Afghanistan Do Not Accept Rule by Northern Alliance
CounterPunch Wire
Now it is confirmed that the Taliban
have left Kabul and the Northern Alliance has entered the city.
The world should understand
that the Northern Alliance is composed of some bands who did
show their real criminal and inhuman nature when they were ruling
Afghanistan from 1992 to 1996.
The retreat of the terrorist
Taliban from Kabul is a positive development, but entering of
the rapist and looter NA in the city is nothing but a dreadful
and shocking news for about 2 million residents of Kabul whose
wounds of the years 1992-96 have not healed yet.
Thousands of people who fled
Kabul during the past two months were saying that they feared
coming to power of the NA in Kabul much more than being scared
by the US bombing.
The Taliban and Al-Qaeda will
be eliminated, but the existence of the NA as a military force
would shatter the joyful dream of the majority for an Afghanistan
free from the odious chains of barbaric Taliban. The NA will
horribly intensify the ethnic and religious conflicts and will
never refrain to fan the fire of another brutal and endless civil
war in order to retain in power. The terrible news of looting
and inhuman massacre of the captured Taliban or their foreign
accomplices in Mazar-e-Sharif in past few days speaks for itself.
Though the NA has learned how
to pose sometimes before the West as "democratic" and
even supporter of women's rights, but in fact they have not at
all changed, as a leopard cannot change its spots.
RAWA has already documented
heinous crimes of the NA. Time is running out. RAWA on its own
part appeals to the UN and world community as a whole to pay
urgent and considerable heed to the recent developments in our
ill-fated Afghanistan before it is too late.
We would like to emphatically
ask the UN to send its effective peace-keeping force into the
country before the NA can repeat the unforgettable crimes they
committed in the said years.
The UN should withdraw its
recognition to the so-called Islamic government headed by Rabbani
and help the establishment of a broad-based government based
on the democratic values.
RAWA's call stems from the
aspirations of the vast majority of the people of Afghanistan.

Association of the Women of Afghanistan (RAWA)
