Los ntawm Medea Benjamin & Nicolas JS Davies

cuaj Lub xeev cov peev hauv Afghanistan tau poob rau cov Taliban hauv rau hnub-Zaranj, Sheberghan, Sar-e-Pul, Kunduz, Taloqan, Aybak, Farah, Pul-e-Khumri thiab Faizabad-thaum sib ntaus sib tua tseem nyob hauv plaub ntxiv-Lashkargah, Kandahar, Herat & Mazar-i-Sharif. Tsoomfwv Meskas cov tub ceev xwm tam sim no ntseeg Kabul, Afghanistan lub peev, tuaj yeem poob ib mus rau peb lub hlis.

Nws yog qhov txaus ntshai los saib kev tuag, kev puas tsuaj thiab kev tshem tawm ntau txhiab tus neeg Afghans uas txaus ntshai thiab kev kov yeej ntawm cov neeg tsis paub cai Taliban uas kav lub tebchaws 20 xyoo dhau los. Tab sis kev poob ntawm kev tswj hwm hauv nruab nrab, kev ua phem rau tsoomfwv los ntawm Western lub zog yog qhov tsis tuaj yeem hloov pauv, txawm tias xyoo no, xyoo tom ntej lossis kaum xyoo txij tam sim no.

Thawj Tswj Hwm Biden tau ua rau Asmeskas poob kev poob ntsej muag hauv Asmeskas hauv qhov ntxa ntawm kev tsim teb chaws los ntawm kev xa ib tus kws tshaj lij Asmeskas Zalmay Khalilzad mus rau Doha kom yaum tsoomfwv thiab cov Taliban nrhiav kev daws teebmeem kev nom kev tswv, thaum tib lub sijhawm xa tawm B-52 cov foob pob los tawm tsam tsawg kawg ob lub nroog loj.

In Lashkargah, lub peev ntawm xeev Helmand, Asmeskas kev foob pob tau tshaj tawm tias tau rhuav tshem tsev kawm theem siab thiab tsev kho mob. Lwm B-52 foob pob Sheberghan, lub peev ntawm xeev Jowzjan thiab lub tsev ntawm phem warlord thiab liam tub sab tub nyiag Abdul Rashid Dostum, uas tam sim no yog tus tub rog commander ntawm Asmeskas-txhawb tsoomfwv cov tub rog.

Meanwhile, lub New York Times qhia tias U.S. Txheeb tag drones thiab AC-130 gunships tseem tab tom ua haujlwm hauv Afghanistan.

Kev sib tawg sai ntawm cov tub rog Afghan uas Asmeskas thiab nws cov phoojywg sab hnub poob tau nrhiav, ua tub rog thiab cob qhia rau 20 xyoo ntawm nqi ntawm kwv yees li $ 90 nphom yuav tsum tuaj raws li tsis xav tsis thoob. Ntawm daim ntawv, Afghan National Army muaj 180,000 pab tub rog, tab sis qhov tseeb feem ntau yog neeg poob haujlwm Afghans xav tau nyiaj los pab lawv tsev neeg tab sis tsis mob siab los tawm tsam lawv cov phooj ywg Afghans. Cov tub rog Afghan tseem yog hais tsis zoo rau nws kev noj nyiaj txiag thiab kev tswj tsis raug.

Cov tub rog thiab cov tub ceev xwm tseem muaj kev cia siab ntau thiab muaj kev phom sij uas tus txiv neej raug rho tawm cov chaw tiv thaiv thiab cov chaw soj ntsuam nyob ib puag ncig lub tebchaws tau raug teeb meem los ntawm kev raug mob loj, kev pauv pauv sai thiab kev khiav tawm. Cov tub rog feem ntau xav tsis muaj kev ncaj ncees mus rau kev ua phem rau Asmeskas-txhawb tsoomfwv thiab ib txwm tso tseg lawv cov ntawv, txawm tias koom nrog Taliban lossis tsuas yog mus tsev.

Thaum BBC nug General Khoshal Sadat, tus thawj coj tub ceev xwm hauv tebchaws, txog qhov cuam tshuam ntawm kev raug mob loj rau tub ceev xwm nrhiav neeg thaum Lub Ob Hlis 2020, nws cynically teb, "Thaum koj saib kev nrhiav neeg ua haujlwm, Kuv ib txwm xav txog tsev neeg Afghan thiab muaj pes tsawg tus menyuam muaj. Qhov zoo yog tsis muaj qhov tsis txaus ntawm cov txiv neej hnub nyoog sib ntaus uas yuav tuaj yeem koom nrog lub zog. "

Tab sis a tub ceev xwm nrhiav neeg ntawm qhov chaw kuaj xyuas nug lub hom phiaj ntawm kev ua tsov rog, qhia rau BBC's Nanna Muus Steffensen, "Peb cov Muslim yog txhua tus kwv tij. Peb tsis muaj teeb meem nrog ib leeg. " Hauv qhov xwm txheej ntawd, nws nug nws, vim li cas lawv thiaj sib ntaus? Nws tsis txaus siab, luag nyav thiab tshee taub hau thaum tawm haujlwm. “Koj paub vim li cas. Kuv paub vim li cas, "nws hais. “Nws tsis yog tiag peb sib ntaus. ”

Txij li xyoo 2007, pob zeb diamond ntawm Asmeskas thiab Sab Hnub Poob kev qhia ua tub rog nyob rau Afghanistan yog Afghan Commando Corps lossis cov haujlwm tshwj xeeb, uas suav nrog tsuas yog 7% ntawm Afghan National Army cov tub rog tab sis tshaj tawm tias 70 txog 80% ntawm kev sib ntaus. Tab sis cov Commandos tau tawm tsam kom mus txog lawv lub hom phiaj ntawm kev nrhiav neeg ua haujlwm, ua tub rog thiab cob qhia 30,000 tus tub rog, thiab kev nrhiav neeg pluag los ntawm Pashtuns, pawg neeg coob tshaj plaws thiab ib txwm muaj nyob hauv pawg, tau ua rau tsis muaj zog, tshwj xeeb tshaj yog los ntawm Pashtun plawv nyob rau sab qab teb.

Commandos thiab tus kws tshaj lij cov tub ceev xwm ntawm Afghan National Army yog tus thawj coj ntawm haiv neeg Tajiks, ua tiav cov neeg ua tiav rau Northern Alliance uas Asmeskas tau txhawb nqa tawm tsam cov Taliban 20 xyoo dhau los. Raws li xyoo 2017, Commandos suav tus lej nkaus xwb 16,000 rau 21,000, thiab nws tseem tsis tau paub meej pes tsawg ntawm cov tub rog uas tau kawm los ntawm Sab Hnub Poob tam sim no ua txoj kab kawg ntawm kev tiv thaiv nruab nrab ntawm tsoomfwv Asmeskas cov tub ntxhais hluas uas tau txhawb nqa thiab tag nrho kev swb.

Cov Taliban txoj kev nrawm thiab ua haujlwm ib txhij ntawm thaj chaw loj thoob plaws hauv lub tebchaws zoo li yog lub tswv yim txhob txwm tshaj tawm thiab nthuav tawm tsoomfwv qhov tsawg ntawm cov tub ntxhais kawm tau zoo, muaj tub rog zoo. Cov Taliban tau ua tiav ntau qhov kev yeej kev ntseeg ntawm cov haiv neeg tsawg nyob rau Sab Qaum Teb thiab Sab Hnub Poob ntau dua li tsoomfwv cov tub rog tau nrhiav Pashtuns los ntawm Sab Qab Teb, thiab tsoomfwv tsawg tus tub rog tau kawm zoo tsis tuaj yeem nyob txhua qhov chaw ib zaug.

Tab sis dab tsi ntawm Tebchaws Meskas? Nws deployment ntawm B-52 cov foob pob, Txheeb tag drones thiab AC-130 gunships yog cov lus teb phem los ntawm kev ua tsis tiav, ua rau lub hwj chim tsis muaj zog mus rau keeb kwm, ua kom poob ntsej muag.

Tebchaws Asmeskas tsis swb los ntawm kev ua phem tua neeg rau nws cov yeeb ncuab. Tsuas yog saib ntawm Asmeskas-coj kev puas tsuaj ntawm Fallujah thiab Mosul hauv Iraq, thiab Raqqa hauv Syria. Muaj pes tsawg tus neeg Asmeskas tseem paub txog qhov raug tso cai tua neeg ntawm cov pej xeem tias Iraqi cov tub rog tau cog lus thaum Asmeskas-coj pab pawg thaum kawg tau tswj hwm Mosul xyoo 2017, tom qab Thawj Tswj Hwm Trump tau hais tias nws yuav tsum “Tshem tawm tsev neeg” ntawm Islamic State fighters?

Nees nkaum xyoo tom qab Bush, Cheney thiab Rumsfeld tau ua txhaum ntau yam ntawm kev ua tsov ua rog, los ntawm kev tsim txom thiab txhob txwm tua ntawm cov pej xeem mus rau "kev ua txhaum loj tshaj plaws thoob ntiaj teb" ntawm kev ua phem, Biden tsis muaj kev txhawj xeeb ntau dua li lawv tau ua txhaum lub luag haujlwm lossis kev txiav txim ntawm keeb kwm. Tab sis txawm tias los ntawm qhov pom tseeb thiab tsis txaus ntseeg ntawm qhov pom, dab tsi tuaj yeem txuas ntxiv kev foob pob hauv av ntawm Afghan lub nroog ua tiav, ntxiv rau qhov kawg tab sis tsis muaj qhov kawg mus rau 20-xyoo-ntev Asmeskas tua ntawm Afghans los ntawm txog 80,000 American foob pob thiab foob pob?

cov kev txawj ntse thiab cov phiaj xwm poob nyiaj hauv Asmeskas cov tub rog thiab CIA txoj haujlwm tseem ceeb muaj keeb kwm ntawm kev zoo siab rau nws tus kheej rau kev khiav tawm, kev yeej tsis raug cai. Nws tau tshaj tawm sai sai yeej hauv tebchaws Afghanistan xyoo 2001 thiab tau teeb tsa los ua kom nws cov kev xav kov yeej hauv Iraq. Tom qab ntawd txoj kev ua tiav luv luv ntawm lawv txoj kev hloov pauv xyoo 2011 hauv Libya txhawb kom Tebchaws Meskas thiab nws cov phoojywg tig mus Al Qaeda xoob hauv Syria, ua rau muaj kaum xyoo ntawm kev ua phem tsis zoo thiab muaj kev kub ntxhov thiab nce ntawm Islamic lub xeev.

Ib yam nkaus, Biden suav tsis tau thiab siab tsis ncaj cov kws tshaj lij kev nyab xeeb hauv tebchaws zoo li tau yaum kom nws siv tib lub riam phom uas tau rhuav tshem lub xeev Islamic lub nroog cov hauv paus hauv Iraq thiab Syria los tua cov Taliban tuav lub nroog hauv Afghanistan.

Tab sis Afghanistan tsis yog Iraq lossis Syria. Tsuas yog 26% ntawm Afghans nyob hauv nroog, piv nrog 71% hauv Iraq thiab 54% hauv Syria, thiab cov Taliban lub hauv paus tsis nyob hauv cov nroog tab sis nyob hauv cov chaw nyob deb nroog uas lwm peb lub hlis twg ntawm Afghans nyob. Txawm hais tias tau txais kev txhawb nqa los ntawm Pakistan ntau xyoo, cov Taliban tsis yog ib qho kev tawm tsam zoo li Islamic lub xeev hauv Iraq tab sis kev tawm tsam haiv neeg Afghan uas tau tawm tsam rau 20 xyoo kom tshem tawm kev tawm tsam txawv teb chaws thiab kev ua rog los ntawm lawv lub tebchaws.

Hauv ntau thaj chaw, tsoomfwv Afghan cov tub rog tsis tau khiav tawm ntawm cov Taliban, zoo li Iraqi Army tau ua los ntawm Islamic lub xeev, tabsis koom nrog lawv. Thaum lub Yim Hli 9th, cov Taliban nyob hauv Aybak, lub xeev lub nroog thib rau poob, tom qab tus thawj tub rog hauv cheeb tsam thiab nws 250 tus neeg sib ntaus sib tua tau pom zoo koom nrog cov Taliban thiab tus tswv xeev ntawm Samangan xeev tau muab lub nroog rau lawv.

Tib hnub ntawd, tsoomfwv Afghan tus thawj coj sib tham, Abdullah Abdullah, rov qab mus rau Doha rau kev hais lus sib haum xeeb ntxiv nrog cov Taliban. Nws cov phooj ywg Asmeskas yuav tsum ua kom pom tseeb rau nws thiab nws tsoomfwv, thiab rau cov Taliban, tias Tebchaws Meskas yuav txhawb nqa txhua txoj haujlwm kom ua tiav kev hloov pauv kev nom kev tswv zoo dua.

Tab sis Tebchaws Meskas yuav tsum tsis txhob foob pob thiab tua neeg Afghans kom npog rau tsoomfwv Asmeskas cov tub ntxhais hluas uas tau txhawb nqa tsoomfwv kom tsis txhob nyuaj tab sis tsim nyog muaj kev sib cav ntawm rooj sib tham kom coj kev thaj yeeb nyab xeeb rau cov neeg txom nyem, kev ua tsov ua rog tsis txaus ntseeg ntawm Afghanistan. Kev foob pob lub nroog nyob hauv Taliban thiab cov neeg uas nyob hauv lawv yog txoj cai lim hiam thiab kev ua phem txhaum cai uas Thawj Tswj Hwm Biden yuav tsum tso tseg.

Kev swb ntawm Tebchaws Meskas thiab nws cov phoojywg hauv Afghanistan tam sim no zoo li yuav nthuav tawm sai dua li kev sib tsoo Nyab Laj Qab Teb nruab nrab ntawm xyoo 1973 thiab 1975. Cov pej xeem nqa mus los ntawm Asmeskas kev swb nyob rau sab Asia sab hnub tuaj yog "Nyablaj mob," qhov kev tsis nyiam rau kev pab tub rog nyob txawv tebchaws uas ua rau ntau caum xyoo.

Raws li peb mus txog 20 xyoo hnub tseem ceeb ntawm 9/11 kev tawm tsam, peb yuav tsum xav txog seb Bush li cas cov thawj coj tau siv Asmeskas pej xeem txoj kev nqhis dej rau kev ua pauj kua zaub ntsuab kom tso tawm cov ntshav no, kev tu siab thiab tsis muaj qab hau 20-xyoo tsov rog.

Zaj lus qhia ntawm Amelikas txoj kev paub hauv Afghanistan yuav tsum yog qhov tshiab "Afghanistan syndrome," pej xeem kev tsis nyiam ua tsov rog uas tiv thaiv kev ua tub rog Asmeskas yav tom ntej thiab kev tawm tsam, tsis lees txais kev sim ua haujlwm tsim kev sib raug zoo rau tsoomfwv ntawm lwm lub tebchaws thiab ua rau muaj kev cog lus tshiab thiab nquag Asmeskas kev thaj yeeb, kev lis kev cai thiab kev tshem riam phom.
