Mazar-i-Sharif Prisoners Fulfill Vow to the Death (Taliban Propaganda Alert)

From amongst the believers are men who have been true to the oath they made with Allah. From them are those who have fulfilled this oath (been martyred in Allah's Way) and from them are those who are still waiting, but they have never changed in their determination in the least.[Quran 33:23[

Three days after the Mujahideen prisoner revolt began in Mazar-i-Sharif, the last Mujahideen fighters were killed, fighting, as they vowed, to the last drop of blood. Hundreds of these Mujahideen, in a pre-planned martyrdom operation, managed to kill over 500 Alliance troops and dozens of US and British Special Forces soldiers, before they were martyred. These Mujahideen had earlier taken an oath to fight to the death whilst in Kunduz, and they were true to their oath. US soldiers are said to have been pretty shocked and shaken-up by the intensity of the firefight and the determination of the fighters. May Allah reward each and every single one of them, accept their martyrdom, enter them into the Highest Paradise and enable other Muslims to follow in their footsteps and fulfil the oaths they have made to Allah.

This is not the first time in Islamic history that Muslim heroes have vowed to fight to the death and, insha-Allah, it will not be the last. At the time of the Prophet (SAWS), hundreds of companions gave the Prophet (SAWS) their oath to fight to the death if the suspicion that Uthman, their companion, had been killed by the Quraish, came true. So pleased was Allah with this oath of theirs that it became known as the Pledge of Ridhwan (Allah's Pleasure) and Allah revealed a verse in the Quran to this effect: "Allah was well- pleased with the believers when they pledged their oath to you (Muhammad SAWS) under the tree. Allah knew what was in their hearts so he sent tranquility over them and rewarded them with a speedy victory."[Quran 48:18]

Likewise, in the Battle of Yarmuk against the Romans, the greatest battle between Islam and Christianity in the 7th Century of the Christian Era, when the tides of the battle turned against the Muslims, Ikrimah bin Abi Jahl took the oath to fight to the death and with him 400 other Muslims took the oath. They fought ferociously against all odds until the tide of battle changed in the favour of the Muslims and the Christian army was routed. Each and every single one of these Muslims was martyred or seriously injured, amongst them Ikrimah bin Abi Jahl, who was martyred in the lap of Khalid bin Al-Waleed, the Sword of Allah.

US Marines are engaged in skirmishes with Taliban and Foreign Mujahideen troops. There have been casualties on both sides, but it is not possible at the moment to determine numbers killed and injured at the moment. The Mujahideen are preparing to defend Kandahar to the last drop of blood. Likewise, guerilla units of Mujahideen are patrolling the areas around Kandahar to engage US units. Soon the World will come to realise whether the war really is about to finish or not, when the US Government is no longer able to conceal US combat casualties. The Muslims are urged to increase in their supplications for the US troops to be defeated and smashed, for Allah to send His Angels against them and for their plans to fall into disarray. They are further urged not to be impatient with their supplications, but to continue them, for Allah's Help comes when one has seemed to lose all hope.

By signalling the start of the guerilla campaign, the Taliban have entered a new phase of a war which will, with Allah's permissions, last several years, ending in the defeat of America like its predecessor twelve years earlier. The US economy cannot take a protracted conflict lasting several years. The American public cannot take casualties, as was demonstrated in 1993, when the bodies of American soldiers were dragged through the streets of Moghadishu, Somalia. US troops withdrew from Somalia less than 24 hours after this humiliating defeat because the American public was unable to accept any more casualties.

Meanwhile, talks have started in Bonn, Germany to try and create a 'broad- based' government in Afghanistan, which the disbelievers have not been able to establish for 20 years. The Pakistani Government is now beginning to realise its betrayal by the US Government, as both Russia and the US land in Afghanistan, occupy its territory, in order to control the gas and oil resources of Central Asia. Unfortunately for the Pakistani Government, it is too late and now they must pay the price for trusting disbelievers over and against their fellow Muslims. The words of Sheikh Abdullah Azzam should suffice as to the reaction of the Mujahideen to these 'talks':

By Allah, if the heavens were to meet the earth, we will never accept the traitor state. Indeed those who paid the price of the state with the blood of their martyrs, they are more worthy to rule the country. As for all those sitting in the West, who have not spent a drop of their blood for this Deen, nor has a drop of sweat trickled down their face for this Deen, what right do they have to come and rule in Afghanistan"

The American public cannot take casualties, as was demonstrated in 1993, when the bodies of American soldiers were dragged through the streets of Moghadishu, Somalia.

Hey, Islamodummies, we have different leadership now. Didn't you think of the possibility of that before you got yourselves into this deep s**t?

In a related story, Bert and Ernie will no longer appear on toy shelves together as Bert has declared a Fatwah on Ernie.

"I will not sit on the toy shelf with that infidel!", roared Bert. "By Allah's permissions, he will rot on the shelf until he finds himself discounted on the wholesale market, then torn to shreads by street urchins in New York. Allah Akbar!", said Bert.

This is definitely a win-win situation. They get to be martyrs and we get to kill them, with the enthusiastic approval of Allah and his Prophet. Now that we've had a successful trial run in Afghanistan, let's go into full-volume production.

Wrong, Mohammad! Several years is wishful thinking. It's going to last several decades or longer ... how ever long it takes to rid the world of you gene deprived vermin. You make a big mistake assuming that America is your only enemy. The fact of the matter is that the whole civilized world is your enemy ... even your Muslim brothers who still believe in Allah, but are having second thoughts about the culture of death you embrace.

No, several years won't do the job. It will take longer to squash you, but you will be squashed. The civilized world has had it with your insect mentality.

These Taliban, as much as I dislike them and prefer them dead, showed a lot of courage. They fought to the last man and had to be blown up to the end. I think it strange that we don't see Osama at the front of the fray here, leading such brave warriors to their (and his) much publicized glorious end as martyrs for Islam. Osama is in hiding as these courageous fighters die without hope of rescue or escape. Why is Osama hiding? He knows that his days are numbered, that he has no recourse just like these dead Taliban. Why doesn't he come out and lead these men who are dying for him?

Yes, the Islamofascists are brave. The Nazis were brave. And both of them have been right to complain about the corrupting influence of the Western media.

But the means they both chose to resist this corrupting influence were totally wrong. Both were wrong to attack people totally unassociated with what they complain of. Had they instead chosen to ally with forces in the Anglo-American democracies that oppose what they dislike in Hollywood and the like, they might have been able to defeat what they dislike.

But instead they chose to attack all of us, guilty or innocent. And, in so choosing, they have condemned themselves to the scrapheap of history.

German culture has enough merit that eventually it is going to survive the Nazi debacle. But it will have taken several decades to realize that it should survive 1945. I suspect Islamic culture lacks this worth, and that the ultimate result of the Islamofascists' attack on the West is that Islam is going to die.

There is a diference between bravery and stupidity.

The POWs were stupid, suicidle, and anything BUT brave.

Bravery in this circumstance can be found among the 12 SOF men (Brits and Yanks) who held the line when the NA rabble ran from behind them, and called in air strikes on "fast movers" onto their own position.

Islam will be given a new face and learn tolerance - or it shall perish as a great religion.

Uh-huh. These are the same real committed Islamic dudes that grabbed the Canadian journalist and are holding him for cash ransom.

In other words, rattle their cage and they revert to their secret identity as common criminals.

These are the same bad, bad Taliban dudes that are falling over themselves to try to surrender alive while ratting out their Pak and Arab bench.

They were bad dudes on the practice field, in the soccer stadium in Kabul with an AK-47 and some poor woman they felt like shooting. But now it's game time and they have to take the field against the civilised world's all-stars.

The oddsmakers see them as eliminated in the early rounds. Sorry about that, Taliban fans.
