For a whole two months, the American military and civilian officials, western and its surrogate media and other American influenced so called ‘Experts' strongly advertised the Chicago conference; optimism was shown; it was considered a last chance; was called the largest summit; was touted as the key to tough questions and on which the hopes of a lot of people were riding came to an end yesterday.

Several allies of America and their stooges had hoped that large sums of financial assistance to the Kabul administration would be announced in the conference and trumpets would be sounded that America has won and everything is orderly but fortunately nothing like that transpired. Conversely, disappointment was echoed in all statements and in the end remarks mixed with repeated words which have been exhausted and listening of which was pointless, for instance; America and its allies will pull out all its combat troops from Afghanistan by the end of 2014, residual force for training would remain!!? Everything else is progressing along fine and some other empty, inconclusive, deceptive and far from reality claims.

That it was pronounced again at the end of the summit that most of the occupying forces will leave Afghanistan but some would remain as trainers and advisors to prolong the occupation, this is neither the solution for solving the problem nor is it an acceptable option to the Muslim Afghan nation. The Islamic Emirate of Afghanistan, as the representative of its people, would like to state that the fundamental solution is that all the invading troops withdraw as quickly as possible. Leave the Afghans to their own decisions.

Another thing worth lamenting is that the constant ongoing death of innocent civilians in Afghanistan caused by the American night raids was never even mentioned in the summit. The internal issues of Afghanistan such as the rampant corruption, state terrorism, insecurity and the plight of people due to increasing poverty were also not addressed.

We believe that vain ostentatious conferences, preoccupying media outlets and telling short lived lies to their own nation and the people of the world has lost all credibility and cannot alter the ground realities in any possible way. The fact remains that here lies an independent nation and an independent people. Subjugating this nation is an elusive dream which have never been realized throughout history. So, if America and its allies still want to keep deceiving and temporarily distracting the people from the fundamental problem then they must realize that the people have now become familiar with their wavering policies, they are not going to play along and neither has the world agreed upon eternally giving precedence to America. It would be beneficial if time is not wasted here, nations are left to their won decisions, dreams of invasions and occupations are disregarded and the people of the world especially the Muslim nations and their sanctities are treated with respect. Such actions have the potential of solving the core fundamental problems. Erase brutality and depravation and turn towards international peace. If on the contrary you insist on war, hypocrisy, fraud and deceiving members then without a doubt, problems shall multiply and nations are prepared to defend their religion, country, life, wealth, sanctities and honor and resort to all viable options on the table to attain their goals.

Can the Afghan dilemma be solved only by conferences?

If the Afghan issue was solvable by mere conferences, it should have been solved long ago. A number of regional and international conferences like Bonn, Tokyo, London, Lisbon, Istanbul and the latest Chicago conference have been held. But the reality is that after each conference the Afghan issue is made much more complicated. The reason is that these conferences are not held but for the deterioration of the core issue.

It is just for the justification of the American and its allied occupation of Afghanistan. Since the main intension was not for the solution, they could not find out any workable resolution.

In the beginning (ten years ago), America considered itself the exclusive power of the world. She did not take anyone into consideration. She announced that in the present global situation, national sovereignty is meaningless and there are no borders for us. If America considers that its security is in danger, it can retaliate anywhere, anytime and on anyone. It was the heroic Afghan nation that made America and its buddies realize that the freedom and national sovereignty of other nations not a pudding to be swallowed easily.

The Americans do avail advance technology and modern satellite systems but the ongoing Jihadi movement is equipped with sacred belief, fervor of sacrifice and it enjoys wide range public support. It is a weapon which is available neither in Washington nor in Pentagon, London or in Bonn. This is a reality which can never be altered by mere propaganda.

We have repeatedly said that in Afghanistan an Islamic and national Jihadi movement is going on against the external invasion following the example of our forefathers. Its nature and essence cannot be changed whatever blames and labels are assigned to it. As long as the invading forces under the headship of America do not surrender to the natural and legitimate right of full sovereignty and the establishment of a system fully coherent with their beliefs, cultures and traditions; these conferences, false media reports, superficial diplomacy and advance technology cannot solve this dilemma nor can terminate the war.

The most core necessity for the solution of this problem is sincerity, the acceptance of reality and handing over the right to the right people. Otherwise the Afghan predicament cannot be solved in the following decade just as it could not be solved in the past decade.

Therefore our message to the participants of the Chicago conference is that if they really want to solve the issue, they should realize and accept the ground realities inside Afghanistan. They should respect the sovereignty of Afghan nation. They should let this nation build a system in free environment, reflective of their religious rules and national characteristics and parallel with dreams and wishes of Mujahideen.

It can not only guarantee the security and stability of the country but also of the whole region and even the whole world.
