Every year on 9th September, the death anniversary of Massoud, the people of Kabul experience barbarism of the factional kind (reference to factional infighting during the 1992-1996 civil war and the commission of horrendous crimes during that time). A group of reckless men belonging to Shorae Nizar roamed the whole city wildly, spreading terror, and causing disturbance and concern among the residents of Kabul. Many of them had arms and fired shots into the air without facing any hindrance from security forces. These groups come out on the streets for mourning Massoud but their actions resemble a celebration.

August 10, 2015: The Fierce Protest of Shah Shaheed Massacre’s Survivors
August 10, 2015: The fierce survivors of Shah Shaheed Massacre poured into the streets and chanted slogans against Afghan and US governments. They claim that the Afghan Govt. is hiding the truth of this awful incident. While, it is possible that the real cause of the incident is a missile fired or bomb thrown by US airplane, but the Afghan security forces announced it as suicide bombing. All of the protestors are saying that first they heard a sheering sound of missile, the light went out and then boom. They added, the number of dead ones are more than 100, and corpses are still hidden under the rubble.
Tens of Afghan security forces, including NDS personnel in private outfit, tried to stop the protestors, by spreading amongst the protestors and alluring or even use of violence to silence them. The security forces were acting more violently when the protesters chanting slogans against US Govt. They were encouraging the protestors to only shout against Pakistan.
The Solidarity Party of Afghanistan (SPA) will release the complete footage of this protest very soon. Most of the protestors were fierce about the censored reports of the incident by media.

On March 29, 2015, at six in the evening a suicide attack was carried out in the Shah Shaheed area of Kabul by the Taliban pigs, and the victims were once again our people. It is said that the target of the suicide bomber was Gul Pacha Majidi, a member of the Parliament. He survived the attack but the most innocent people were killed. Two of those killed were Mohammad Faisal and Ahmadullah who were already living a life of misery and sorrow.
Martyr Mohammad Faisal and his cousin martyr Ahmadullah were both students who worked part time in a drugstore to help their poor families with the small bit of money they earned. The Taliban brutes wounded this already suffering family. 13-year-old Ahmadullah was martyred at the attack site and 15-year-old Mohammad Faisal was severely injured. Ashraf Ghani visited Majidi in the hospital and all the roads were blocked for his security. Faisal’s family could not cross this blockade to donate blood to their loved one and he died due to severe blood loss.

Since 12 days, the residents of Chardara District – Kunduz are living under the gunfire of wild Taliban and Ghani-Abdullah Government. The local residents, including women and children, are the very first victims of war. The residents of villages such as Qatel-e-Aam, Taal Guzar, Esakhel, Darman, Sarasya, Wardak, Qarya-e-Qasab and Dobandi-e-Arab, have fled to save their life, leaving all their possessions behind, seeking refuge in remote areas.
The war has taken victims from the most wretched people, but the media only spoke of war but not the civilian casualties. The continuous insecurity in Kunduz and the exchange of power between Taliban and Government in the different districts of the province and other areas of Afghanistan, shows that big devil hands are working behind the scene. The presence of Ashraf-ul-Madares madrassa with 6,000 Taliban students in heart of Kunduz city; rapid increase of terrorism and Taliban militants in this province and other northern provinces; all shows that the US Govt. and its puppet regime in Afghanistan are involved in nourishing terrorism rather than fight it.

Ramazan, a 53-year-old man left school when he was in the eighth grade during Daud Khan’s regime. He was not able to get a job in the government due to ethnic discrimination dominant at that time, so he was forced to work as a cleaner and transporter to help his family. Later, he started learning work in a butcher shop. Ramazan was the oldest child of his family who had to take charge of his family when his father died. Ramazan recalls that he would bring home the fat, rumen and intestines of the butchered animals from the shop to feed his family. They spent years this way.
After the overthrow of Daud’s government by Taraki, the situation of Afghanistan began to deteriorate worse than before. Many opponents of the puppet regime were tortured and killed under the pretext of being bandits or anti-government. Ramazan says that he lived in fear at that time, “Every day we thought that it is now our turn to be taken to prison or sent to war.” The Soviet invasion inflamed the war which made life harder for the poor people. He added, “We thought that such horror and cruelty does not occur in any other part of the world, and that it would not be repeated ever again. But we were wrong.”
