ATTACKS IN AFGHANISTAN
Three Police Headquarters Wiped out by Islamic 
Fighters
On August 17, 18 and 19 Taliban forces 
attacked police headquarters at 
three different localities in southeastern 
Afghanistan. The Islamic fighters 
this time came in unexpectedly large numbers, 200 
in one attack and 50 each in 
the other two attacks. The Taliban, now operating 
openly with a Jihad Council 
led by Mulllah Omar, show these new 
characteristics:
1. Ability to mobilize openly in spite of 
U.S. 
collaborators and Karzai 
agents on the ground.
2. Growing numbers of Taliban fighters. This 
shows that the message of 
Jihad 
is being accepted by the people.
3. Ability to evade U.S. air attacks launched in 
support of the Karzai regime.
4. The Karzai clique which claimed that Taliban 
were insignificant is now 
beginning to concede increasing casualties. It 
admits that 8 police officers were 
killed in the first attack and 10 in the third. 
[The actual numbers are said 
to be much higher.] In the second attack 
Karazai's police officers were, at 
least 4, CAPTURED by the Taliban.
The Jihad is taking on a pattern familiar 
from the time of the Soviet 
invasion. The mujahideen first attack the 
mercenary Afghan forces hired by the 
occupiers. These collaborators are the people who 
can track down the Islamists. 
[Somewhat like Crazy Horse, the hero of the 
native American people, was 
tracked by Indian mercenaries paid by U.S. 
cavalry.]
Once the Afghan mercenaries are wiped out, 
the American and European 
forces in Afghanistan will be like the blinded 
cyclops who can throw huge boulders 
but cannot see his tormentors.
The air attacks by the U.S. cause tremendous 
suffering but they are like 
a hammer trying to hit a fly.
