20 dead Americans? That is a great Islamic military victory? We get more Australians dying on the road every Christmas. More Muslims die each month from coconuts falling on their head.

Throw in the number of US soldiers who are permanently disabled, and you are looking at tens of thousands. 4804 US-led soldiers killed in Iraq...and that does not even include mercenaries!

Title: Re: Who is whipping who? Post by freediver on Feb 28th, 2012 at 7:46pm
So the difference between a great Islamic victory and a loss depends on which local Muslim groups the foreign occupiers talk to?
Not say, the presence of foreign military bases, the ability of foreign armies to come and go as they please, the ability of foreigners to dismiss and install governments at their discretion? Not even whether those foriegn forces feel such sympathy for the locals that instead of waging conventional war, they actually help to rebuild the nation, set up civil administrations, elections etc? Does this mean Muhammed established his caliphate by getting whipped by every tribe he came across? |

Title: Re: Who is whipping who? Post by abu_rashid on Feb 28th, 2012 at 8:42pm
U.S can go whereever they please? LOL!
You're a victim fd. They are being whipped, and like with the Soviets before them, they've been economically and politically ruined by their little escapade in Afghanistan. The U.S will be withdrawing very soon, and handing the country back to the same people they took it from, ie. the rightful government, the Taliban. The consortium of warlords that the U.S have currently installed will then slinker back into their little corner in the remote northern region, where they can practice their despicable inhuman acts upon one another. |

Title: Re: Who is whipping who? Post by freediver on Feb 28th, 2012 at 10:21pm
Other than who gets to sit at the table with the occupying forces while they figure out what to do with the country, is there anything significant that distinguishes a great Muslim military victory from a loss?
Is your great victory more of an imagined one about what might happen in the future rather than something that has actually happened? |

Title: Re: Who is whipping who? Post by abu_rashid on Feb 29th, 2012 at 6:04am
The Taliban are not sitting at any table with the invading scum.

Title: Re: Who is whipping who? Post by freediver on Feb 29th, 2012 at 8:35am
I see. You got me there.
So the difference between a great Islamic victory and a defeat is not who gets to sit at the table with the occupying forces while they figure out what to do with the country, but rather who gets invited to sit at the table with the occupying forces while they figure out what to do with the country? Any other subtle differences I may have overlooked? I appreciate you helping me learn to identify a glorious Islamic victory where the invading forces try to spin it to look like they won. |

Title: Re: Who is whipping who? Post by abu_rashid on Feb 29th, 2012 at 8:57pm
fd.. The aim of the U.S was to remove the Taliban and "limit the ability of al-Qaedah to operate". None of these have been achieved, in fact quite the opposite.
The Taliban are more popular in Afghanistan than ever, and are in the process of booting the U.S out, al-Qaedah still operate as they did before and have spawned "inspired cells" all over the world, in fact the U.S only seems to have given them publicity. The "Battle for the hearts and minds" has been an absolute disaster. The Muslim world, once in awe of America now despises her, and most allies even lost confidence in her. The U.S instead of having an economic resurgence from the war has ended up having a downturn, which has spread to the entire Western world (except the Rudd-led country of Australia). Perhaps that's a "victory" for the U.S in your mind? The Taliban had little to lose, so the very fact they've managed to hang on is a great victory. The fact they could hold their own against the sole world superpower is nothing short of miraculous. |

Title: Re: Who is whipping who? Post by freediver on Feb 29th, 2012 at 9:33pm
So hanging on is the great victory? Couldn't they have achieved the same thing by going home and waiting for the Americans to leave?
Also, AQ got plenty of publicity with 9/11 and also demonstrated their ability to project power. Since then it all seems downhill. Their operations have only gotten smaller and the Taliban cannot even fight off fellow Afghans. Isn't it true that their ability to control Afghanistan is far less and they will soon be in a position of fighting their own countrymen in a desperate attempt to regain the country, without the Americans even being present? Would it be fair to say that all they have really achieved is forcing the Americans to stay in Afghanistan for far longer than either the Afghans or the Americans want? |

The only reason they are hanging in there is that the Americans went in for 'nation building' rather than eradication. It would take about 4 weeks to financially and militarily strangle Afghanistan, if the Americans put their minds to it. |

Falah can you please insert links so people can click on them without typing them in. 1906 Americans killed in Afghanistan in over a decade. The Americans probably lost more lives in 1 day on the beach at Normandy compared to 10 years in Afghanistan. The death toll from 1 day at Pearl Harbour is probably higher than what the Americans have lost in over a decade in Afghanistan. http://icasualties.org/oef/ The Taliban kill far more Afghans than coalition troops 2009- 1533 civilian deaths caused by the Taliban 2010- 2038 civilian deaths caused by the Taliban 2011 - 2332 civilian deaths caused by the Taliban 2009- 2011 The Taliban caused 5903 civilian deaths in this time period In 10 years the Taliban killed 1906 American troops From 2009- 2011 the Taliban slaughtered 5903 Afghan civilians.

The Taliban wanted schools for girls. They just inherited the poorest country in the World from the Soviets and Western-backed warlords.
The Taliban are not anti-education, but lacked funds to build girls schools and employ teachers. |

Thanks. freediver wrote on Mar 2nd, 2012 at 8:36am:
Neither. Islam promotes education for all. If there were elements of the Taliban who opposed this before, then they did so against the rulings of Islam. Everything they seem to be saying now suggests they are not against it. And even before when they were in power, they did permit women to goto school and to work, just not as widely as males. The West lied black and blue about this, yet some Western aid workers who visited Afghanistan during the Taliban's rule, confirmed that girls schools did exist. This is really a non-issue. The Western propaganda machine just harps on about this to distract people from the real issues. Just like the nonsense about kite flying. |

I think it is important. Why do you think education is so unimportant? Or is it only female education that is unimportant? The Taliban has done immense harm to a genration of Afghans by denying a basic education to so many of them. Why would they seek to make the place even more backwards and ignorant? Also, you still have not explained why it is not a victory for the west. In my opinion it is something really good that has come out of the war on terror. |

What a load of crap. The Taliban provided security and safety. Before the Taliban arrived, Afghani women were being killed, raped and abducted by US-sponsored warlords. We have seen similar situations in Europe, like when the Soviets occupied Germany and raped 2 million women. I suppose you think that Jewish women were treated well by European Christians in the 1940's. The Nazi sex factories, and death camps were a stroll in the park. The Christian Serbs and their rape camps. The Taliban provided safety and security and were attempting to improve the difficult circumstances that the Afghan were in. |

http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Taliban_treatment_of_women Women seeking an education were forced to attend underground schools, where they and their teachers risked execution if caught.[4][5] They were not allowed to be treated by male doctors unless accompanied by a male chaperone, which led to illnesses remaining untreated. They faced public flogging and execution for violations of the Taliban's laws.[6][7] The Taliban allowed and in some cases encouraged marriage for girls under the age of 16.
