On January 15th 2014, the American invaders bombarded Seya Gerd District of Parwan Province killing 14 innocent Muslims. This incident refreshed the memory of the 12 years of American ferocity in Afghanistan. The entire Muslim nation of Afghanistan condemned this brutal act along with the government officials and parliamentarians.

Comment

In such a sensitive situation where America is trying to shape the public opinion in favor of Afghanistan being a sovereign and independent country by orchestrating a drama of signing the Security Pact between U.S. and its pawn Hamid Karzai, the tragic incident has ruined the public opinion and turned it against the governments of both Afghanistan and America.

It was therefore important for the U.S. to arrange and launch another attack so that to divert the public opinion from the incident of Parwan to the incident taken place at the Lebanese restaurant, situated in Wazir Akbar Khan, which is considered to be one of the red zones in Afghanistan. In this attack, 13 foreigners and 8 Afghans were killed and many others wounded. As usual the apparent responsibility of the attack was accepted by Taliban and linked it to the U.S. forces attack on Parwan as revenge.

However, analyzing the incident in detail demonstrates that the attack on the Lebanese restaurant was not Taliban's endeavor due to its intricacy. To ascertain this, take the following points into consideration:

1. The security agencies of Afghanistan are unable to verity and report the explosives used in this attack and to give evidence to the media.

2. The initial inspection of the incident shows that the security guards of the restaurants and some other officials did not even retaliate and they were dead without any physical wound. Their hands were paralyzed because of which they could not use their weapons.

3. If Taliban can orchestrate such sophisticated attacks in such areas, then it should be very easy for them to attack different embassies, foreign NGOs and other diplomatic areas.

4. Historically it has been proved time and again that in such attacks the traces of American CIA, MI6 and their contracted security agencies are found. We have also seen heavy involvement of the private security agency of Michel Sample in Afghanistan and Raymond Davis Network in Pakistan, as well as other security mercenaries like Black Water.

5. The attack in Wazir Akbar Khan at this subtle situation is in favor of U.S. interest for the following reasons:

a) The public opinion regarding the Parwan incident could take Kabul towards insecurity.

b) The U.S. and western media is trying to ensure to the people of Afghanistan, using such incidents, that in fact Taliban and Al-Qaida are their real enemies and have the capability to even breach the strong security area of Kabul.

c) The invaders also want to show to the people that Taliban and Al-Qaida are barbaric and they don't differentiate between the local and foreigners in their attacks.

d) Such tragic occurrences are also being used as a negation of the terms put forward by Hamid Karzai in the security pact that U.S. should show its intention for bringing peace in Afghanistan. Using incidents like this, U.S. wants to convey to the people that it's useless to talk to Al-Qaida and Taliban about peace as they only understand the language of war.

The best example to illustrate the spin game is when the criminal U.S. forces attacked the Panjwai District of Kandahar and killed and burnt numerous local residents ruthlessly. Looking at the serious reaction from the people they immediately brought forth the issue of Quran being despoiled in Bagram Prison and successfully diverted the attention of the people away from the Panjwai Massacre. This game of diverting and hijacking public opinion is carried everywhere in the Muslim world by the democratic terrorists. Hence the Muslims of Afghanistan should not lose sight of the real issues, which could benefit the colonialist invaders, and should not allow emotions to overcome their thinking process and should not be deceived by western media and so called political analysts. In such situations we all must refer to the commandments of our Creator Allah (swt), in which we are warned from joining hands with the enemies of Allah (swt) and His Messenger (saw), and in which the importance of establishing Khilafah "Caliphate", unification of the Ummah both political and geographical, establishing Islam through Khilafah "Caliphate" and rejecting any help from the Kuffar, are clearly mentioned, so that we live under the shadow of Allah's Deen by re-establishing the Khilafah "Caliphate" state. It is therefore, utmost essential to understand the spin game and dirty politics of the colonialists and their puppets, only than we will be able to take firm steps to get rid of western political, cultural and economic hegemony. Only by doing this we can break the shackles and live in peace and prosperity.

Allah (swt) said in the Holy Quran;

((قَدْ بَدَتِ الْبَغْضَاء مِنْ أَفْوَاهِهِمْ وَمَا تُخْفِي صُدُورُهُمْ أَكْبَرُ))

"Vehement hatred has already come into the open from out of their mouths, but what their hearts conceal is yet worse." [Ali-Imran: 118]
