TALIBAN PROPAGANDA WATCH: (Tiny) Crack in Taliban Messaging?
It’s not much, but it jumped out at me.
Usually, Taliban propaganda references to Afghan troops or government officials uses the term “puppet”. For example, from today:
…. In another news, the NATO and U.S invading terrorists backed by their Afghan puppet terrorists, after having faced ten days of hardship and hunger in Marjah ….
This latest interview attributed to the Taliban’s spokesperson for southern Afghanistan, Qari Muhammad Yousuf, (Scribd.com version) includes the usual exaggerated stats about ISAF and Afghan casualties. How they referred to Afghan security forces, though, is different:
Destroyed tanks 78
Foreign troops killed 382
Destroyed ranger vehicles 4
Domestic soldiers killed 36.
Could this be part of what some (more here and here) see as a “kinder, gentler” Taliban campaign while NATO is paying kinetic attention to Marjah? The Arabic version of the same interview (Scribd.com version in Arabic here, and Google English translation of Arabic here) refers to “customer” casualties (a variation of the “puppet” messaging), so it could also be a translating glitch on the part of the Taliban Info-machine.
Still, nice messaging or not, I’m going to bet my buck on the Taliban staying nasty once NATO leaves the area (unless Afghan security forces are strong enough to hold the area credibly).

Dozens of Americans killed as 7 U.S. armored tanks eliminated in Marjah
Thursday, 25 February 2010 17:55 By Qari Yousuf Ahmadi
HELMAND, Feb. 25 – The brave Mujahideen of the Islamic Emirate report from Helmand province that several U.S soldiers were killed as seven of the American armored tanks were separately destroyed in Mujahideen’s planted mines in different parts of Marjah town of Nad Ali district throughout Thursday. As per details, one of the U.S tank was blown apart by a blast on earlier Thursday as the U.S invaders were on an attack mission against Mujahid in Seh Patang area of Sefen in Marjah, resulting in destroying the tank with its American crew killed. Meantime, four tanks of the U.S troops have been struck by planted IEDs in Sistani area in the outskirt of Marjah since noon hours of Thursday. The report indicates at least dozens of the U.S. soldiers were killed or injured in the stated bombings which have taken place in Marjah town through much of the day. However, two of the U.S tanks were targeted in the separate bombings in the morning hours of Thursday. It is to be mentioned that some statements released by the enemy claiming that the U.S took control of southern Marjah and the National flag of the minion administration was raising there are no more than mere rumors, as a matter of fact, Mujahideen have the complete control of Marjah and its center Known as Laisa. Apparently, the U.S and NATO military spread such rumors to cover the losses and fatalities inflicted on them with every passing day during what they enemy call major operation in Marjah.
Interview with Qari M. Yousaf Ahmadi, spokesman of the Islamic Emirate of Afghanistan, about the general jihadic situation in Helmand and the neighboring provinces. – PDF at Scribd.com – Views of the Occident Blog version
Thursday, 25 February 2010 05:27 Interview by Hekmat
Q: How do you see the current Jihadic situation in Helmand province and other surrounding provinces?
A: Mujahideen’s resistance against the enemy attacks in Marjah, Nad Ali district, has been continuing as per the plan. According to our previous predictions and assessment, the enemy has now been entangled in battles in accordance with our tactical plan and the enemy losses have been spiraling up with the passage of time. The Mujahideen have destroyed a great number of the invading enemy tanks in various tip-and-run attacks. In addition to this, they have lost several soldiers. Reports from the battlefield of Marjah indicate, that the enemy forces are suffering from sagging morale. They are trying to take out their besieged soldiers from the area where they were deployed on the first day of the operation. However, the enemy infantry and tanks are under constant siege wherever they are stationed. Whenever they try to wriggle off from the tangle of the siege, they come under attacks and ambushes of Mujahideen or hit by planted mines. Similarly, Mujahideen constantly launch missiles attacks against the invaders. The invading foreign forces have not made any advancement despite great material and life losses inflicted on them and seem to be trying to retreat from the areas. Two days ago, the invading enemy airlifted their soldiers from Qari Sadi, evacuating the area.
Q: At the beginning of the enemy attack, the enemy was speaking of their victories and advancement. Reports said that they had taken some areas. Western media also were repeatedly reporting their victories. What is the reality?
A: All that which happened on the first day of the operations were in accordance with our tactical plan. We wanted to deal a crushing a blow at the enemy, so we allowed enemy forces enter some areas without any resistance. The enemy thought, it was their remarkable advancement in the battle filed. So they boastfully claimed of having captured Marjah. Even some high-ranking official of the Kabul Administration held celebration of victory in Marjah. The enemy has no advancement at the battlefield throughout the past two weeks except heavy losses and casualties. They know now that their claim about capturing Marjah was not at proper time or before time. The enemy infantry are under siege in areas where they were airdropped on the second day of the operations. Enemy tanks and military vehicles do not find any way to go out of the villages where they have entered . The enemy now uses pedestrians’ paths because Mujahideen have mined the main road with IEDs. There are deep-water canals on both sides of the main roads, which are not passable for enemy tanks and vehicles. Mujahideen snipers are targeting and ambushing them constantly. Wherever, the enemy intends to move, they face attacks and ambushes , mine explosions etc.
Q: In the past few days, the enemy had material and soul losses in Marjah. Please share with us enemy loss figures.
A: It is now two weeks since the inception of Marjah operations. According to reports from the battlefield, the following are enemy losses. We have given these figures at the disposal of mass media outlets from time to time.
Destroyed tanks 78
Foreign troops killed 382
Destroyed ranger vehicles 4
Domestic soldiers killed 36.Similarly, Mujahideen in other areas of Helmand province have stepped up their attacks on the invading enemy simultaneously. According to data on our hand, 51 foreign and 23 domestic soldiers have been killed as yet. 17 tanks and 6 military vehicles of the enemy have been destroyed in the said areas.
Q: What is your opinion about the Jihadic situation in other neighboring provinces of Helmand. Reports say that high momentum is seen in Jihadic activities in this year particularly in this severe winter in comparison with other previous years.
A: Yes, You are right. In the current year, Mujahideen of neighboring provinces of Helmand, launched devastative attacks against the enemy causing great losses to them. We have been witnessing simultaneous attacks of Mujahideen on the invading foreign forces. This has given the enemy the jitters and diluted their manpower to focus only on one area. Despite the harsh winter, enemy had great losses. Figures about the invaders losses indicate that Mujahideen activities have spiraled up in these province as follows.
Kandahar:
Foreign troops killed 28.
Domestic troops killed 33.
Destroyed tanks 5.
Destroyed ranger vehicles 5.Farah:
Foreign troops killed 29.
Domestic troops killed 17.
Destroyed tanks 8.
Destroyed military vehicles 3.Zabul:
Foreign troops killed 3.
Domestic troops killed 26.
Destroyed tanks 1.
Destroyed military vehicles 4.Uruzgan:
Foreign troops killed 5.
Domestic troops killed 19.
Destroyed tanks 1.
Destroyed military vehicles 3.These figures of enemy losses show their losses occurred in a few provinces. If we count enemy losses at country level, we see clear impetus of Jihadic activities and escalation of the invaders casualties and materials losses. Even some high-ranking enemy officials admit the achviements of the Mujahideen. So we can say as a whole, the Jihadic situation is convincing. With the help of Allah, we are not facing any obstacle that could not be overcome.
Q: Dear Mr. Ahmadi! The Marjah operation is believed to be an experimental operation to test the new American strategy. Do you think the enemy would be able to reach their goal by launching such operations?
A: It is experimental operation. This is true. The enemy openly admits that Marjah operations were a test for the new strategy . If this is true , the enemy should have known by now that their defeat is definitely a certainty. We see the situation of the battlefields in Marjah is going against the wishes of the enemy and they have no gains. They resorted to every kind of propaganda stunts to boost their position but have no advancement for the last two weeks. The reason for the enemy’s failure is that they have not learnt from the past eight years’ experiences. They want to show their muscles once again under the name of new strategy and prolong their occupation of the country. However, such adventures only add to the enemy losses. They have to face life and material losses. On the other hand, the civilian casualties and their compelling of common people to leave their homes cause deep anger and resentments among the masses. The enemy has to review their policies as regards to our country. This is now an accepted fact, that Americans and other invaders are not able to continue occupation of Afghanistan through military means. It will be better for them to pull their forces out of our country and leave the Afghans to live under the shade of an Islamic system.
Hekmat: Thank you for the time to give interview.
Ahmadi: Thank you.

Colonialist Motives Behind Marjah Operations
Tuesday, 16 February 2010 12:14 Sahar
It is now for one week that the invading enemy have launched military operations named “ together” against Mujahideen in Marjah, a part of Nad Ali district, Helmand province. They have put more than 15,000 American, NATO and the hireling Afghan troops against a minuscule number of Mujahideen in the area. More than 60 helicopters, armed with hellfire missiles, and hundreds of tanks are taking part in the operation.Marja has remained in the hands of Mujahideen for the last few years. Other parts of Helmand province like Baghiran, Dishu, and Washer districts are already under the administration of the Islamic Emirate of Afghanistan. So question rises why the enemy chose Marjah, a small area, to launch operations. Ostensibly, the enemy say that they want to put pressure on Taliban to accept the government terms of re-integration and reconciliation announced at the end of London Conference on 28th of last month. In fact, Marjah is a geopolitically important area because it borders on Baluchistan, Pakistan where China has a vast developmental project in the shape of Gwadaer seaport.
The invading America wants to control the transit way to Gwader in order to ensure a short-cut for supply of its logistics which are now shipped through Karachi sea port, Pakistan and through Tajikistan to the north of Afghanistan. They also want stymie Chinese involvement in the Gwadar project. Similarly, in light of the new round of the politically tense situation between Washington and Tehran over uranium enrichment and Iran’s missiles program, the White House wants to install new espionage equipments in Mrjah close to the Iranian border. In addition to this , British invaders have been extracting uranium in Sangin district which is fraught with raw uranium.
Local Mujahideen say, the British invading forces have brought heavy excavation equipments to the district for extraction of uranium in Sangin.
The British are also involved in drug trafficking in Helmand province. They are secretly taking heroin in British planes to black markets in Europe. No question, the war fought under the name of terrorism has other political and economic motives including expansionist goals rather than the so-called announced War on Terror. However, the Afghani Mujahideen have been sacrificing their lives to ensure independence of their country and put an end to the colonialist game started under the unjustified reasons and causes.
Despite the media fanfare and partial reporting of the Western media, Mujahideen of the Islamic Emirate of Afghanistan in Marjah have besieged the enemy troops. Fresh reports from the area say: “ In fact, the invading forces have made no spectacular advancement since the beginning of the operations. They have descended from helicopters in limited areas of Marjah and now are under siege.
The invaders are not able to come out of their ditches. Wherever they intend to move, they come under severe attacks of Mujahideen and face explosions of planted mines. Then they retreat hastily. The enemy troops have lost their morale. The local people are beholding the foreign troops crying loudly. “
We want all freedom- loving forces in the world to support the legitimate cause of the Afghan Mujahideen led by the Islamic Emirate of Afghanistan and save the humane values from the claws of colonialism. Right now, the occupying forces are trampling down on human dignity, freedom, security and values under the farcical name of terrorism.

After the beginning of the military operation in Marja by the invaders, their advancement has been stalled by local Mujahideen in the area. According to reports, Mujahideen have started coordinated tip and run operations against the enemy not only in Marja but also in all other districts of Helmand province. According to Yousef Ahmadi, spokesman of the Islamic Emirate of Afghanistan, Mujahideen attacked enemy forces at Loi Char Rahi, Block Nokaro Char Rahi and Camp areas. They are under siege now. The enemy wanted their infantry to join air-borne marines descended behind the lines. But Mujahideen, using there past experience, foiled the enemy efforts and besieged them. In another attack in Safun and Wakil Wazir areas, Mujahideen destroyed 7 tanks of the enemy and killed 25 invaders. Report further say that Mujahideen are attacking enemy mobile patrol all throughout the area as per tactical plan already worked out by Mujahideen. The Mujahideen also penetrated into areas behind the enemy places of gatherings and they are attacking them from the back. Earlier, enemy launched attacks from the side of Nawar and Shirn Jan Char Rahi but they faced planted land mines and lost a number of tanks and anti-mine vehicles. Similarly, in Aibadullah Qulp, Shamlan and Qari Sadi areas, near the center of Majah, enemy troops were killed as a result of incessant guerillah attacks of Mujahideen and planted mines. The Mujahideen have deployed special martyrdom-seeking teams in all areas of the enemy gathering. Local commanders of Mujahideen are implementing the vast and long-term tactical plan of attacks hammered out by the military commission of the Islamic Emirate of Afghanistan. The aim is to entangle the enemy in long-term battles. Mujahideen are coordinating their operations on the basis of the war plan. Ironically, the enemy is exacting revenge on the civilians after facing defeat at the hand of the Mujahideen. They attack villages and people houses with mortar rounds and missiles. So far enemy have martyred 17 civilians in two separate incidents. 12 civilians were killed in a blind missile attack on residential area while, in a night raid on Qari Sadi village, near the center of Marja, enemy troops opened fire on members of a family, killing five persons on the spot.
