a very well timed leak that will surely make MPs feel responsible for the deaths and force us into action i don't doubt that it may be true but i'd take with a very heavy pinch of a salt "The fuck. Potassium fluoride has plenty of non-chemical warfare uses, such as the production of refrigerants. As does sodium fluoride, which is in fucking toothpaste for Christ's sake. This is like saying "Britain Accused of Sending Nitrogen to Syria. Nitrogen Later Turned Into Ammonium Nitrate, Which Then Turned To Bombs, Which Then Got Used on Civilians." top post on reddit by someone called shockedsystem i'm not too knowledgeable on the whole thing so not sure wether what he said is legit | ||

The main organizations fighting against the Afghan government & NATO forces in Afghanistan today are the Taliban, the Haqqani network and Al-Qaeda. The Taliban were created in 1994, years after Soviet forces left the country (1989) and the Soviet-supported government fell (1992) - and in fact, they fought against many of the mujahideen warlords who were during Soviet occupation called freedom fighters and who regrouped under the label "Northern Alliance" after being pushed back towards the Northern territories by the Taliban. The Haqqani network did fight the Soviets, but were mostly funded by Pakistan's ISI (way more than by the CIA). Al-Qaeda were never funded by the US and was never hailed by the west as a group of "freedom fighters". The organization appeared towards the end of Soviet occupation and its members were mostly foreign rather than Afghan. So, to sum up, try to get familiar with the facts before you offer sweeping generalizations followed by a smug "/politics" as if you had any idea of what you were talking about. | ||

As you rightly say it's pretty much meaningless but the public won't see it that way, and I think it has the potential to really destabilise our Government even further. | ||

Yes, they were freedom fighters at one point, and funded by the US and Arabia Saudi. The Taliban were not mujahideen. The Taliban were created in 1994 notably because of anger towards some of the mujahideen and their exactions & violence against each other and the population. That Mullah Omar fought during the Soviet occupation doesn't change the fact that he recruited among the people who were precisely weary of the former "freedom fighters" warlords. Some of his commanders obviously had previous conflict experience (many others did not and were actually teachers in Islamic schools), but that doesn't make the Taliban as a group former "freedom fighters". You just copy/pasted the first sentence of a wikipedia article which is extremely vague on the origins of the Taliban, and the "funded by the US and Arabia Saudi" appeared later and did not refer to the Taliban in that article but to the mujahideen that fought against the Soviet Union. | ||

Yep, why would i rewrite something that is already on perfect english ? ![]() Another copy paste refering to your point on them not being mujahideen, since afghanistan post afghanistan soviet war was mostly warlords fighting each other until the Taliban was formed (http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Mujahideen) : Afghanistan However, the mujahideen did not establish a united government, and many of the larger mujahideen groups began to fight each other over power in Kabul. After several years of devastating fighting, a village mullah named Mohammed Omar organized a new armed movement with the backing of Pakistan. This movement became known as the Taliban ("students" in Pashto), referring to the Saudi-backed religious schools known for producing extremism. Veteran mujahideen were confronted by this radical splinter group in 1996. You can argue they are not Mujahideen, but you can't argue the movement origin traces back to the Mujahideen. | ||

Uh, my point was indeed that the Taliban was not a mujahideen group that had fought against Soviet occupation, and you just provided a quote that confirms exactly what I've been saying, namely that (I quote myself) "The Taliban were created in 1994 notably because of anger towards some of the mujahideen and their exactions & violence against each other and the population". So I'm not sure what you're trying to say other than you're agreeing with me ![]() edit: also, that quote got the dates wrong since the mujahideen were confronted by the Taliban before 1996 - 1996 is when they took Kabul. | ||

Maybe i missread you. Maybe you misread it, but I mentioned in my first post that they "fought against many of the mujahideen warlords who were during Soviet occupation called freedom fighters". | ||

As Americans you uncomfortable to hear this, but you can make up your own, independent opinion just by looking at the problem from both sides. you have a right to assume that it Freemasonry fiction. this is the most comfortable position | ||

Excuse me, are you believing the world thinks moscow is the ultimate target ? What for ? It's not Cold War anymore, and Russia is hardly a "target" for anyone. Sure they are more relevant than France for example who still thinks highly of itself, but... not *that* much. Yeah, take a look at both sides :-D For example the side of these people killed by their government. 1400dead, 400children. I'm sure those children were wannabe-terrorists. I trust the expertise of my coworkers who, while we are not important anymore, take pride in themselves, and would not have given false results on the expertise of chemicals a few months ago, just to please the US and zionism. I do not trust the russian government waving their arms "it's impoooooosssssibeul than the syrian gov used gas ! It's a trap !", since I feel them more inclined to just help their protégé and contradict the rest of the world meanwhile. | ||

Your country has always supported a hardline stance to chemical weapons, but now, when the chips are down, Germany has completely backed down on taking any action. Talk the talk, but don't walk the walk. | ||
