Afghanistan War Story From The Taliban Side

Afghanistan War has been raging for several decades now, it seems as if there is no other way than the constant fighting, killing and bombings. Amongst all this war stories we forget the men fighting against us. Who are these so called Taliban, who are the Mujahids. We cannot win any war unless we know our enemy better than our friends.

I believe Americans before that the Russians and before that the British failed to understand men and women living there. The way they think, the things they aspire for are completely different from ours. Before you think it is one of those pacifist blogs, no that is not true. In the following video we see human beings not super-human villains as they are made out to be. The cost of war a father has to pay. The evil that lies beneath. I think you shall like this video immensely.

Afghanistan War Stories In Video

Great documentary on the devastation war brought to Afghanistan much before the American Army. Once Kabul used to be a just like any other busy capital city but after the soviets left, and the Mujahid's took over it fell into ruins. Then came the menace called Taliban armed,trained and funded by Benazir Bhutto of Pakistan with the sole purpose to make Afghanistan a strictly Islamic state ruled by Shriah and a satellite state or ally of Pakistan for war with India . They utterly ruined any chance of restoring order. Northern Alliance led by Commander Ahmed Shah Massoud held on for as long as they could but at the end had to flee North to make their stand. It is an old documentary by BBC and it brings out the problems faced by the people due to the continuous fighting, invasion, conflict and war that Afghanistan has seen over the past 40 years or so. The video is in six parts.
