Commander Ahmad Massoud

And one of the things that I have been very sort of honest about with my people

The moment that I left my country, whenever I'm outside, whenever I'm inside, I've been very, very honest with my people.

Because one thing is, the Taliban, they had sanctuary in Pakistan for almost two decades.

They never came in Afghanistan.

They lied that, oh, we were always in Afghanistan.

But it was a lie.

We all knew they were like, you know, and Pakistan and different countries hiding.

One thing is, is I have been very honest with my people.

And this was the decision.

And this was basically the strategy we had.

And we proved after three years, starting only in Panjshir Valley, now we are operating to 12 provinces.

And in the latest report of UN,

Guterres himself even agreed and commented on it, that the NRF operated and executed more than 25 attacks only in Kabul in the span of the past three months, which is way more than that, but the reports that he gave, that even he admits it.

So you see, we...

proved that even all alone with no support, we stand, we proved it to ourselves, to our people, we created a narrative, we created an organization, and for three years we have been withstanding against all the might of the Taliban.

Not only we have been successful, but we managed to expand.

Yes, the warfare is guerrilla warfare because it is a tactic against an enormous

sort of group that has 70 million weekly handed over to them, that has $2.5 billion annually from Afghanistan income, that also have the backing of all the international terrorism and the biggest source of income they have, which is the narco trade.

And against such force, we cannot just go for a suicide attack.

We needed to change the strategy and we managed to be very successful that in the past one and a half years, after adopting this strategy, we didn't have even one prisoner and one person got killed.
