World War 3: Mujahideen Spring Offensive April 7, 2012

Three Afghan army soldiers were wounded in Helmand Province, while conducting seek and destroy operations.

Afghan army and police claim to have killed dozens of Mujahideen in battles, as well as captured anti-government militants and weapons, in the past 24 hours.  The battles took place in the following provinces: Gahzni, Nangarhar, Badakhshan, Kandahar, Kunar, Helmand, Nanagahar, Paktia and Zabul.

Three private security guards were killed, one wounded, when their vehicle hit a mine in Khost Province.

Two Afghan cops were wounded after a bomb went off in Gardez city, in Paktia Province.

Two civilians were killed, and four wounded, after a battle between Afghan government forces and Mujahideen in Kapisa Province.

In Faryab Province more Uzbekistani Mujahideen were capture and killed.  International Security Assistance Force (ISAF) says they are part of the Islamic Movement of Uzbekistan.  They are calling those captured “facilitators”, meaning they might not be part of the organization, but are helping them in some way (money, guns, ammo, food).

ISAF says there was a firefight, in which several Uzbek militants were killed.

ISAF and Afghan forces conducted several operations to capture Mujahideen “leaders” in Kandahar and Khost provinces. ISAF did not say if they were successful.

World War 3: Afghan & Pakistan Taliban joining forces, will jointly attack U.S./NATO forces

Despite reports from Reuters, stating that the Afghan and Pakistani Taliban are “at each other’s throats”, Japanese media are reporting that various ‘taliban’ groups have agreed to put aside differences to jointly target U.S. led forces.

Over the weekend representatives from Afghanistan’s and Pakistan’s Pashtun dominated Taliban (Mujahideen) groups met.  Japan’s NHK claims they talked with Mujahideen officials and were told they have decided to put aside their differences, and focus on fighting the U.S. forces in Afghanistan.

Pakistani Mujahideen agreed to back off of attacking Pakistani government forces, and, beginning in March, will help their Afghan cousins focus their fight against the U.S.

They’ve established a 5 member council to help co-ordinate their efforts.  This news comes after reports that the Afghan Taliban have accepted an offer from U.S. President Obama, and the government of pro-U.S. Qatar, to open a diplomatic office in Qatar.

Afghan Mujahideen claim they killed 27 U.S. troops in truck bomb attack

August 18, Taliban claim they launched a truck bomb attack on U.S. Gardez base, killing 27 U.S. troops.

Official U.S. media reports say only two Afghans were killed.  The U.S. media has proven over and over that it can not be trusted.

Witnesses say the explosion was “huge” and destroyed a U.S. helicopter as well.

Since the beginning of August the Afghan Mujahideen have escalated their attacks on NATO forces.  This despite President Obama saying the Taliban were on the decline.  August is looking like it will be the deadliest month for U.S./NATO forces.
