[China tentu lebih senang berjiran dengan Afghanistan yang ditadbir oleh Taliban kerana kerajan Islam Taliban tidak menggugat mereka. Amerika tidak boleh dipercayai kerana ia cuba mengintip China baru-baru ini (di bawah arahan Bush juga).

Sebelum ini beberapa agensi berita melapurkan negara China telah membeli beberapa peluru berpandu A.S. yang tidak meledak dari Taliban untuk kajian. Ada berjuta-juta umat Islam di negara China (termasuk pakar tentera) yang sudah tentu menganggap Taliban sebagai saudara mereka yang teraniaya....

(China assisting Taliban in war against US)

Oleh: Times of India

Islamabad. Ketua turus tentera Afghanistan, Jalaluddin Haqqani, mendakwa betapa pihak militia ada berhubungan dengan China yang membantu mereka dalam peperangan menentang AS.

Sebelum pulang ke Afghanistan selepas berunding dengan beberapa pegawai Pakistan, di sini, Haqqani yang juga merupakan menteri wilayah bersempadan, memberitahu wartawan bahawa 'China masih membantu Taliban dalam peperangan menentang Amerika.' Namun dia enggan memberikan butirannya.

Dia juga telah menemui para pemimpin agama Pakistan yang pro-Taliban. Dia berkata China adalah jiran penting Afghanistan dan tidak pernah campur hal dalaman Taliban, dan Taliban memang menghormati mereka,' kata beliau.

Haqqani berkata bahawa AS tidak mencatatkan kejayaan sejak tiga minggu menggugurkan bom menghenyak Afghanistan.

'Setakat ini Taliban telah kehilangan 25 orang pejuang dan sebuah helikopter militari dan dua pesawat penumpang Aryana Airlines yang telah terjejas diserang AS,' katanya.

Haqqani berkata semua helikopter dan pesawat Taliban yang lain masih selamat dan para panglima dan pejuangnya belum terjejas lagi.

Dia berpendapat bahawa peperangan sebenar akan bermula apabila AS membawa askarnya menapak bumi Afghanistan. 'Kami memang menunggu mereka untuk menyediakan tanah perkuburan untuk tentera Amerika.'

'Kami telah menyediakan persiapan untuk berperang dengan Amerika untuk waktu yang panjang. Kami tidak berapa yakin berperang dengan kelengkapan berat tetapi bersedia mengorbankan nyawa untuk memperjuangakn keluhuran Islam dan kehormatan tanahair tercinta,' katanya.

'Kami cadangkan AS gugurkan tentera mereka dengan segera dan saksikan sendiri berapa banyak beg mayat yang akan diperlukan setiap hari,' katanya.

Haqqani berkata bahawa Taliban menganggap Osama bin Laden sebagai tetamu mereka dan wira dunia Islam dan mereka tidak akan menyerahkan beliau kepada mana-mana negara pun, tidak kiralah apa yang akan terjadi.

'China assisting Taliban in war against US'

From: Times of India

ISLAMABAD: Taliban commander-in-chief Jalaluddin Haqqani has claimed that the militia was "in touch" with China, which was assisting them in the war against the US.

Before leaving for Afghanistan after holding talks with Pakistani officials here, Haqqani, who is also the minister for frontier regions, told reporters "China is still assisting the Taliban in the war against the US".

He further said that the Afghan militia "continued to be in touch with Beijing." He, however, declined to divulge the nature and quantum of the assistance being provided by China.

Haqqani, whose visit to Islamabad raised eyebrows, said that China would react sharply in the longer run as the US would dig in Afghanistan.

Besides the Pakistan officials, he also met the leaders of the hardline pro-Taliban Pakistani religious leaders.

Haqqani said that China was an important neighbour to Afghanistan and had followed moderate policy towards the Taliban all along.

"It has never interfered in the internal affairs of Afghanistan and Taliban hold it in high esteem for this," he said.

Haqqani said that the US had not scored any noteworthy success in its three weeks of bombardment in Afghanistan.

"So far, the Taliban have lost around 25 fighters. Also a military helicopter and two passenger planes of Aryana Airlines have received minor damage in the US attacks," he added.

Haqqani said that the Taliban's all helicopters and planes were safe and no prominent commander had so far fallen victim to the US attacks.

He added that real war would begin when the US would land its troops on the soil of Afghanistan. "We are anxiously awaiting their entry into Afghanistan in order to make a graveyard for the US army."

"We have made all out preparations to engage Americans for a long time. We do not trust in the might of arms rather we believe in sacrificing our lives for the cause of Islam and honour of motherland," he further said.

"We ask the US to land its troops without any delay and then see as to how much dead bodies it would airlift daily," Haqqani said.

He said that the Taliban still considered Osama Bin Laden as their guest and a hero of Islam and they would never hand him over to any country come what may. (PTI)
