Cobra’s Anger Will Lead To Great Regrets - Afghan
Mujahidun Warns

In the name of Allah, the Merciful, the Compassionate
Last week, the invading and brutal foreign armies
stationed in Helmand, launched vast operations in
Nawzad district and a few other areas of the province.
Since then, they have been prosecuting, torturing and
harassing common people of this land of the Mujahideen
(Helmand) under operations christened Cobra’s Anger.
Still, according to recent reports from the province,
the invaders have not gained any remarkable success,
nor they have been able to destroy any stronghold of
the Mujahideen as yet. Similarly, the foreign forces
have not taken any area of vital importance to
Mujahideen militarily. So far, they have been roaming
in empty deserts. Despite that, they constantly claim
of having captured kilometers of areas from the
Opposition.
It is an immovable fact that the Mujahideen of Helmand
province like Mujahideen of other areas of the country
have given exemplary lessons to the brutal forces of
the invaders during the past eight years particularly
during the past six months that they should expectedly
not have dared to throw down the gauntlet again or in
other word to test the pious people of this land once
more. But the moribund foreign forces want to show
some achievements at the field because they are facing
humiliation and taunt from their public and from rival
countries of the West. They ask them why you are
losing the ground in face of a small country, being
under- armed and ill-equipped people-- still more your
cutting-edge technology have been failed to hit the
mark. They are now confused and unfortunately, not
able to ponder over the results of their previous
military operations.
Rationally, in the light of the ground realities, they
should have reached the conclusion that their next
operations will bring in nothing except failure and
that ultimately, they will not be able to avoid their
historical defeat or could not at least superficially
save their face.
One can draw from their naming of Cobra’s Anger that
the enemy has lost its hope of victory and is waiting
for the day of retreat and route. Therefore, they are
taking it on the miserable and defenseless common
Afghans to present it to their people as a military
victory. Thus they can tell people back home that
though we lost thousands of soldiers in Helmand
province-- the land of Mujahideen--but we also killed
their people including children and women.
In our view, the operations now going in Helmand is a
mistake which has already been repeated. All their
ploys and war stratagems are doomed to failure and
lacks to achieve any objective. In general, their
military strategies are not practicable.
The barbarism and brutalities perpetrated by the
invaders during the past eight years did not give them
any victory nor did they achieve any tangible result.
It is now for the generals and rulers of America and
Britain not to push their soldiers into the mouth of
death for realization of strategies that have already
been tested and failed, nor they should shed the blood
of the oppressed and miserable Afghans in order to
conceal their eventual defeat. Still if they are bent
on continuing their brutalities and want to vent their
anger on the people, they will inevitably have great
regrets.
