What were the reasons for the failure of America and their workers in Afghanistan?
In 1878, the second Afghan-British war took place. At that time, Amir Sher Ali Khan was the head of the Emirate of Afghanistan. This war was actually a match between Russia and Great Britain. The British apparently won this war. And Amir Sher Ali Khan was forced to flee.
In the year 1919, the British invasion and occupation ended forever with the independence of Afghanistan from our country.
In 1979, the 40th Army of the former Soviet Union, under the leadership of Prizhnev, invaded Afghanistan with the support of its mercenary government. .
After the Soviet invasion and the overthrow of the communist government in Afghanistan, the Mujahideen came to power in 1992. The Mujahideen are also involved in bloody wars among themselves as a result of their desire for power and ambition. So, the government of the Mujahideen is the darkest chapter in the history of Afghanistan, which shakes the conscience of every conscientious person. It appeared that the Taliban played an irregular role in the Jihad against the Soviet Union. The major achievements of this movement during its government were:
Ensuring the unity of Afghanistan
Internal wars were raging
Security has been restored throughout Afghanistan
Implementation of Islamic Sharia
Although the Taliban government had some flaws, in addition to being recognized by the international community, it also suffered severe economic penalties.
In the year 2001, the western aggressors, led by the United States, invaded Afghanistan under the pretext of fighting terrorism. He created a corrupt labor and corrupt system for Afghans.
Under the leadership of the Islamic Emirate, the Afghans started a struggle against the Western occupation that is unparalleled in the modern history of mankind. do
Besides announcing the withdrawal of US forces from Afghanistan, US President Joe Biden also said that from now on Afghanistan will be protected by the 300,000 trained Afghan army. He considered it a great achievement and looked upon it as an unrivaled power in the region, but when the Americans fled the country, this unrivaled army disappeared in such a way that the people did not understand that it had become a tradition, went to the sky and if it rained entered the land.
The results of the 20-year American occupation in Afghanistan:
A prestigious American university named Brown has published a report about the American occupation in Afghanistan. There were 71,344 civilians in this group, of which 47,245 were killed inside Afghanistan and 24,099 were killed in drone attacks on the borders of Afghanistan.
69,000 Afghan police and army soldiers, and 3,586 American soldiers were killed.
From 2013 to 2019, US drones dropped 27,000 guided bombs on Afghanistan.
According to the university report, 7792 children were killed and 662 were injured during a decade.
Since 2010, 3,000 women have been killed and 7,000 others have been injured.
The total cost of this war is estimated at 20.26 trillion dollars.
Some other reasons for the defeat of the American and Afghan forces:
1- US action on Afghanistan:
The senior American officials knew very well that the war in Afghanistan is not a win for them, they knew that the Afghan government is corrupt and the security forces are not capable of confronting the Taliban face-to-face. Covering up and lying to the people of Afghanistan and the American people about this, but when Afghanistan was taken over by the Taliban, the international community saw the cracks in their politics.
2-The formation of decorative army:
The Americans formed a decorative non-operational army for Afghanistan. It was not only the decorative army of Afghanistan, but they also formed such an army in Iraq that could not withstand the small resistance of the ISIS group in 2014.
3- Excessive dependence of Afghan soldiers on American soldiers
The Afghan soldiers did not participate in the planning of the operation or in the decision-making process.
3- Psychological warfare:
When negotiations between the Taliban and the US began in Qatar without the involvement of the Afghan government, this was the first shock that shook the Afghan army. Without the knowledge of the Afghan officials, the American military bases were evacuated, which affected the Afghan army.
4- Public support
The Afghan army and government had lost their popularity among the people due to widespread corruption and enmity with the people, and the Afghan people did not want to support a mercenary and murderous army.
5- In the struggle between truth and falsehood, the truth is always victorious.
