Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: After the so-called April 1978 revolution, the killing of President N. M. Taraki by H. Amin and president H. Amin by Russians, and the unjustified open invasion of the Russians in Afghanistan, in 1979, installing Babrak Karmal and Dr. Najib one after the other as their poppets during ten years of atrocities and destruction of Afghanistan, forcing millions of people to leave their motherland to live in Pakistan, Iran, and other parts of the world and more than two million Afghans and 15000 Russians lost their lives the the Russian mission ended and left Afghanistan, via Hairatan, on February 15, 1989, Where president Babrak Karmel was living helplessly in an old container, in deprivation regretting and admitting to a foreign journalist that "relying on foreign powers is a big mistake." Later when he seriously got sick was hospitalized in Russia until he lost his last breath then his body was brought back and buried in honour by family and devoted followers in Hairatan, and then in1996, before the Taliban took over the power in Kabul from another traitor such as president Burhanuddin Rabani, disrespectfully blew up his grave. When they took over, Kabul executed president Dr. Najeebullah and his brother with no respect for human rights. Later two days before the tragedy of September 11, Ahmed Shah Masoud was also mysteriously assassinated in Khwaja Bahawadin, Afghanistan. The irony was after the withdrawal of Soviet troops. Unfortunately, the so-called Mujahideen, Taliban, and the defenders of democracy, such as president Hamed Karzai and President Dr. Mohammad Ashraf Ghani, the last planned victim of the USA, Britain, Saudi Arabia and Pakistan leaders, didn't learn the lesson from the history. They also became the stooge of foreign powers and did the same things Russia and her puppets had done to our beloved motherland. As a result, the country we are proud of returned to the stone age and lost everything we achieved in the last twenty years. Yes, those bloodsuckers once again did it; I meant on August 15, 2021, they returned the same Taliban from Pakistan who were kicked out as terrorists from Afghanistan in October 2001; shame on them. Thus with my last letter on 21/02/2021, expressing my appeals and warning to the concerned organizations this book is the "END" of the cries and appeals of Engineer Fazel Ahmed Afghan to the world leaders and organizations, started 37 years ago, "BUT NOT ENDED" up to his last breath, on the contrary, will get louder and more vital for unity, peace, justice, and equal rights. Democracy, freedom, and national and territorial sovereignty of his beloved motherland Afghanistan. We should understand that only I and all Afghans can't achieve our Sacred goal because, since the defeat of Communism, the enemies of Islam created a new phenomenon of Islam-o-Phobia to create hatred of Islam throughout the world. Afghanistan is one of the Islamic countries in the south Asian region with lots of underground wealth and a strategic position. Therefore, for all Afghans and Muslim nations, in particular, the Islamic scholars, is necessary to wake up and redefine Islam with a new vision of the social, economic, and political structure of the world as well as the development of new technology and the making of sophisticated arms in the world which were not available 1400 years ago. I understand, and by heart, I believe that the Holy Quran is the last Holly book, adaptable and flexible in all situations up to the end of the world. Therefore, it is the job of all Muslim scholars to wake up and think scholarly with open eyes to define Islam according to the true definition of Sharia, especially respecting other religions and the equal rights between men and women in all aspects of life, given the situation in the 21st century and after. Therefore, the Islamic Conference needs to give a universal adaptable definition and guideline of Islam in vital issues to the United Nations that all Muslim countries should act the same. Furthermore, the Muslim scholars, along with the other non-Muslim scholars, should establish a definition for terrorism, terrorist and the act of terrorism on the surface of the earth and the air. That also should be submitted to the United Nations and be adopted universally. If these two things are adopted, Islam-o-Phobia globally will be stopped. Then, hopefully, peace will prevail globally, especially in Afghanistan and all Muslim countries. Therefore, I seek God’s help to achieve our sacred goals to see peace in the world and an independent, peaceful and prosperous Afghanistan in my life.

This book was released on 2019-09-17 with total page 304 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: "They Will Have to Die Now is the story of what happened after most Americans stopped paying attention to Iraq…It will take its place among the very best war writing of the past two decades." —George Packer, author of Our Man and The Assassins’ Gate James Verini arrived in Iraq in the summer of 2016 to write about life in the Islamic State. He stayed to cover the jihadis’ last great stand, the Battle of Mosul, not knowing it would go on for nearly a year, nor that it would become, in the words of the Pentagon, "the most significant urban combat since WWII." They Will Have to Die Now takes the reader into the heart of the conflict against the most lethal insurgency of our time. We see unspeakable violence, improbable humanity, and occasional humor. We meet an Iraqi major fighting his way through the city with a bad leg; a general who taunts snipers; an American sergeant who removes his glass eye to unnerve his troops; a pair of Moslawi brothers who welcomed the Islamic State, believing, as so many Moslawis did, that it might improve their shattered lives. Verini also relates the rich history of Iraq, and of Mosul, one of the most beguiling cities in the Middle East.

Download or read book Red Heat written by Alex von Tunzelmann and published by Simon and Schuster. This book was released on 2012-09-13 with total page 673 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: America's secret war in the Caribbean during the Cold War is revealed as never before in this riveting story of the machinations and blunders of superpowers, and the daring of the mavericks who took them on. During the presidencies of Eisenhower, Kennedy and Johnson, the Caribbean was in crisis, while the United States and the USSR acted out the world's rising tensions in its island nations. Meanwhile the leaders of these nations - the charismatic Fidel Castro, and his mysterious brother Raúl; the ideologue Che Guevara; the capricious psychopath Rafael Trujillo; and François 'Papa Doc' Duvalier, a buttoned-down doctor with interests in Vodou, embezzlement and torture - had ambitions of their own. Alex von Tunzelmann's brilliant narrative follows these five rivals and accomplices from the beginning of the Cold War to its end. The superpowers thought they could use these Caribbean leaders as puppets, but what neither bargained on was that their puppets would come to life. The United States, in its all-consuming fight against communism, stumbled into one disaster after another. First, with the Bay of Pigs, and then with the Cuban Missile Crisis, it helped bring the world as close to catastrophic nuclear war as it has ever been. Red Heatis an authoritative and eye-opening account of a wildly dramatic and dangerous era of international politics that has unmistakable resonance today.

Download or read book The 2001 Anthrax Deception written by Graeme MacQueen and published by SCB Distributors. This book was released on 2015-09-19 with total page 214 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: The 2001 anthrax letter attacks in the United States killed five people and wounded dozens. They were widely blamed on extremist Muslims and their backers and used to support the invasions of Afghanistan and Iraq. They were also used to justify and hasten the passage of the USA PATRIOT Act, which was being presented to Congress just as the first anthrax victim grew ill. In October 2001, one of the hypotheses that gained ground was that of the Double Perpetrator, the claim that al-Qaeda was carrying out the attacks with the support of Iraq. Much evidence was put forth to support this Double Perpetrator hypothesis but independent scientists soon discovered that the anthrax spores came from a domestic lab in the US serving the military and intelligence communities, not from al-Qaeda or Iraq. The FBI then quickly claimed that an individual was responsible for the attacks and began noisily looking for this “lone wolf.” In 2008 the Bureau named Dr. Bruce Ivins of the US Army Medical Institute of Infectious Disease as the “anthrax killer.” Although the FBI remains committed to the Ivins hypothesis, the case has been disintegrating for the last three years. Currently, it is justly held in contempt not merely by scientists who worked with Ivins but by many journalists as well as several US senators. But this raises the question: if Ivins did not commit this crime, who did? This book presents evidence to support the following points: (a) The anthrax attacks were carried out by a group of perpetrators, not by a “lone wolf.” The attacks were, therefore, the result of a conspiracy— by definition a plan by two or more people, made in secret and resulting in an immoral or illegal act. (b) The group that carried out this crime consisted, in whole or in part, of insiders deep within the US state apparatus. (c) These insiders were the same people who planned the 9/11 attacks (d) The anthrax attacks were meant to facilitate a seizure of power by the executive branch of government through intimidation of Congress and US civil society. They were also designed to achieve public acquiescence to and support for the redefinition of US foreign policy, replacing the Cold War with a new and aggressive global conflict framework, the Global War on Terror.

Download or read book 9 11 written by Noam Chomsky and published by Seven Stories Press. This book was released on 2011-08-30 with total page 177 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: In 9-11, published in November 2001 and arguably the single most influential post 9-11 book, internationally renowned thinker Noam Chomsky bridged the information gap around the World Trade Center attacks, cutting through the tangle of political opportunism, expedient patriotism, and general conformity that choked off American discourse in the months immediately following. Chomsky placed the attacks in context, marshaling his deep and nuanced knowledge of American foreign policy to trace the history of American political aggression--in the Middle East and throughout Latin America as well as in Indonesia, in Afghanistan, in India and Pakistan--at the same time warning against America’s increasing reliance on military rhetoric and violence in its response to the attacks, and making the critical point that the mainstream media and public intellectuals were failing to make: any escalation of violence as a response to violence will inevitably lead to further, and bloodier, attacks on innocents in America and around the world. This new edition of 9-11, published on the tenth anniversary of the attacks and featuring a new preface by Chomsky, reminds us that today, just as much as ten years ago, information and clarity remain our most valuable tools in the struggle to prevent future violence against the innocent, both at home and abroad.

Download or read book Power Politics and Paranoia written by Jan-Willem van Prooijen and published by Cambridge University Press. This book was released on 2014-05-29 with total page 339 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Powerful societal leaders - such as politicians and Chief Executives - are frequently met with substantial distrust by the public. But why are people so suspicious of their leaders? One possibility is that 'power corrupts', and therefore people are right in their reservations. Indeed, there are numerous examples of unethical leadership, even at the highest level, as the Watergate and Enron scandals clearly illustrate. Another possibility is that people are unjustifiably paranoid, as underscored by some of the rather far-fetched conspiracy theories that are endorsed by a surprisingly large portion of citizens. Are societal power holders more likely than the average citizen to display unethical behaviour? How do people generally think and feel about politicians? How do paranoia and conspiracy beliefs about societal power holders originate? In this book, prominent scholars address these intriguing questions and illuminate the many facets of the relations between power, politics and paranoia.

Download or read book A Theory of Punishable Participation in Universal Crimes written by Terje Einarsen and published by Torkel Opsahl Academic EPublisher. This book was released on 2018-12-07 with total page 744 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: This study is the second in the four-part series entitled “Rethinking the Essentials of International Criminal Law and Transitional Justice”. While the first volume, The Concept of Universal Crimes in International Law, explored the parameters and theories related to crimes under international law, this book examines the notion of punishable participation in such crimes. It presents a general theory of personal criminal liability and provides a comprehensive overview of all forms of criminal participation in international law. The authors examine numerous primary materials in international and transnational criminal law, both historical and current, relating to both international and domestic jurisprudence. They also review academic literature that attempts to explain and bring consistency to the jurisprudence, as well as other sources such as reports of the International Law Commission. This rich empirical tapestry is then used to test and further develop an overarching conceptual theory and matrix that provides a better understanding of the boundaries of personal criminal liability lex lata and lex ferenda and of the relationship between the various forms of punishable participation in universal crimes. Like the first volume, this book makes a valuable contribution to a more coherent and practical understanding of international criminal law.
