Commander Ahmad Massoud

And still to this day they are fighting.

Women on the street, even they were being thrown to jails, they continued protesting and standing to this day they are doing.

And there were some guys, former African army, special forces, and regular citizens.

They went to the mountains.

They didn't care if no longer there is a friend supporting them from the air or on the ground.

They were with themselves, but they stood for the values that the world left them and abandoned those values.

They fought, and to this day they are fighting all alone.

So these four things happen when the cameras lift, when the attentions lift.

But the people of Afghanistan, with all those terrors, are still very much hopeful, still very much passionate to take back their country, and they're fighting.

No.

Unfortunately, one thing which was one of those signs which indicates the fall of Afghanistan was the poor leadership in Kabul.

Mr. Ashraf Ghani created a situation that was impossible to rally around him and to rally around the government and to do something.

Because we did.

way before the collapse of Kabul, I rallied my people.

I went to different provinces.

I spoke to many people.

They were ready to do something.

And we passed this message to Mr. Rouhani, and we passed this message to the government, that we are ready, we don't want Afghanistan to fall.

They just didn't listen.

They didn't care.
