Afghans were attacked against once again by foreign forces in 2001. Only 13 years ago a foreign invader had left their land. They were ready as they always could be. It was not running to the hills, the hills was their countryside and their most powerful defence. The Afghans never question why they are being invaded they are ready to fight. Their country littered with weapons of the previous invader and weapons provided by an ally.
The invader faced unbelievable resistance. All tactics and stratagems adopted against the previous which were tried and tested - were being used against the new one. The young 20 year old or so soldiers - of the invaders were too small to know about the previous war in the country and did not know what they were getting into. Even the senior officers had no experience fighting here. If the country was a flat plain then fighting would be easier - it was mountainous terrain all the way and there was a sniper on every hilltop and mines left by the Soviet Union below.
Soldiers were being picked out and shot. The mines were adding to the problems. Parts of tanks were destroyed and made unusable. The tank driver and the gunner stayed as long as they could, as soon as they got out they were shot dead. The Afghans knew the terrain like the back of their hands. Hit and run was an art they had mastered centuries ago. The invader sent its planes to bomb specific places, but this was not Vietnam. The Afghans inside mountains, the planes could be shot down by the very weapons supplied by the invader. Those weapons were useful in this war.
The invader had lots of money - but more advanced weaponry designed for air and ground combat all came crashing down. It was loss of life and loss of great deal of money. The Afghans tortured the new invader in the same way as they tortured the previous one. It was a fate worse than death. The invader would be skinned alive by having his skin pulled off from his body with camels peeling the skin off in four different directions. Since it was an undeclared war and no Geneva Convention applied. The female soldiers of the invader were raped endlessly - which made them completely insane or they died.
Another way to get required information when dealing with Soviet generals, turn them into addicts. They would divulge all the secrets to the Afghans for their next fix. When it was assured that all the information which has needed was acquired, the generals would be given a fatal dose.
Amidst the hilltop shooting - soldiers would run for cover, they would find a cave. The cave was not a safe place - because anyone who entered it would fall in a pit at the bottom of which there spears pointing upwards. This has been going on for 10 years. Several hundred thousand invaders are dead, wounded or insane. The true figures will never be reported because those are military secrets. The Afghans do not care how many they have killed as long as they have gotten rid of the invaders. This war has been the most expensive and has resulted in the destruction of the US economy.
The US went to war against Iraq - that war was the result of absolute greed. The same can be said about the war in Libya. The US and its NATO allies are in a very dangerous situation - they cannot fight if their economies are going down. In order to hold on to their empire by force will cost lots of money.
The ultimate cost of this neocolonialism is widespread poverty. Perhaps this will be the last days when any country will try to colonise another, provided the lessons are learnt.
