Ahmad Massoud, the son of the 'lion of Panjshir' has been backed by Afghanistan’s top spy and ousted Vice President Amrullah Saleh, who has a network of spies inside Kabul

An Afghan educated in Britain is leading the fightback in his home country, which has already seen between 60 to 100 Taliban killed.

Ahmad Massoud, son of a legendary mujahideen commander, is heading up the heavily-armed uprising....

...A source told us: “Over the past three days, remnants of the Afghan National Defence and Security Force made their way to Panjshir.

"They are bolstering, joining and supporting Massoud’s alliance....

...Massoud’s father – known as the “lion of Panjshir” – was murdered by al-Qaeda days before 9/11.

He led the CIA-backed Northern Alliance, which ousted the Taliban in 2002 and stabilised the country.

It is hoped the attacks led by his son may buy more evacuation time....

[Remember, Afghans consider outlandish lying to be a great virtue, especially if gullible Westerners fall for it.]

Read this article....it’s extremely worth your time.

“I’ve Worked with Refugees for Decades. Europe’s Afghan Crime Wave Is Mind-Boggling.

Afghans stand out among the refugees committing crimes in Austria and elsewhere. Why?”

> by Cheryl Benard, July 2017

Please read, share and save this article for when the coming inevitable Afghan “refugee” sex crime aggravated rape wave hits the USA.

Compared to even other moslem “refugees,” Afghan males are like mad dogs around Western women, they’ll brutally attack and rape any female from age five to 85, anytime they get the chance.

You have been warned.

These types of stories, like the ones being spread by Oliver North, are designed to sucker us back into Afghanistan and holding up some other group we can pump money into for no good results.

Not so. The Panjsher, although about half the size of Los Angeles county, has been home to the Anti-Islamists for more than thirty years. It will serve as the rebels home from now into the future. Mahsood senior never depended on the United States for its survival, and if Mahsood junior is wise, he will reject the promises from Langley that are sure to come.

We funded his father with good results in the 80s. Not only the Soviet withdrawal but resistance to the Islamo-fanatics, which is why he was assassinated a few days before 9/11.

Keeping a few spec-ops troops backed by airpower and forward air observers is minimal cost to prevent Afghanistan from becoming a base for terrorists again. It worked well until Bush decided to do "nation building."

As you should see now, there's a big difference between not-winning and defeat. This is defeat.

Very impressive! He lead those fighters even after he was dead!
