Green Left’s Pip Hinman spoke to Shayaan, a member of the Solidarity Party of Afghanistan about the situation on the ground in the country.
Afghanistan
The situation in Afghanistan is critical, writes Malalai Joya. For ordinary people, especially for women, this means more suffering. Progressives are in more danger than ever.
The US “war on terror” was portrayed as a just response to the September 11, 2001 terrorist atrocity, writes Rupen Savoulian. This rationale stands exposed as utterly hypocritical.
The Taliban's victory is not a sign of peace but a message of perpetual civil war, writes Farooq Tariq.
If any proof was needed that the Afghan government was a puppet of Washington, it was shown by its quick collapse, writes Malik Miah.
After nearly two decades of war and occupation, United States and NATO forces have withdrawn from Afghanistan, leaving Afghans to pick up the pieces, reports Pip Hinman.
Malalai Joya speaks to Green Left about the United States' recent announcement that it will withdraw its troops and the West’s support for the Taliban.
Solidarity Party of Afghanistan member Shayaan discusses the nearly two-decade-long war in Afghanistan.
Afghan pro-democracy activist and former parliamentarian Malalai Joya spoke to Green Left about the US “peace deal” with the Taliban and how it amounts to a continuation of the 19-year war.
Afghanistan has been turned in to a battle ground of the big powers, and our poor people are the first and easy victims, writes Malalai Joya.
