Afghanistan: Where Alexander was tired, Aurangzeb was defeated, Russia-US fled
Afghanistan remains the world's permanent battlefield.
Afghanistan is a country where most of the empires were defeated. This land has a history of exhausting great warriors. It includes Alexander the Great, Aurangzeb the Mughal emperor, and more recently Russia-America. That is why it is also called the 'graveyard of empires'. What is it in this land that the great warriors had to lay their hands on? The gangsters here
How does the culture make everyone sweat?
The story of Alexander
World champion Alexander of Greece. He decided to take over the world. For that, he went on a campaign. He conquered every single kingdom that came his way. Mesopotamia and Persia did not escape. He finally arrived in Afghanistan. He thought it was a small region, with no one as king. Win easily. But that is exactly what happened. In Afghanistan at that time there were small gangs, they had chiefs, they had clans and they all used to fight each other fiercely. The method of fighting was guerrilla, savage. Attacks were carried out in secret. In that, the front used to be Namoharam. Alexander also had to face this.
Alexander also won Afghanistan but not in one fell swoop. For that he had to fight for three years. When he got stuck in Afghanistan, his mother had sent a message asking him, "Will you go ahead or get stuck here?" It is said that Alexander sent his mother soil from Afghanistan and asked her to sprinkle it on his land. Of Alexander
I did as my mother told me. In a short time, quarrels broke out there. Alexander tried to tell his mother about the quality of Afghan soil. The same pattern applies to Afghan land today. There is wildness in the soil here. There is enmity.
Aurangzeb's drastic defeat
Kandahar is a major city in Afghanistan. At one time it was more important than Kabul. Because of the prosperity of trade. Not only from India but also from other spice producing islands to Persia and beyond to Europe. What is special is that Kandahar was originally founded by Alexander the Great. As important as the commercial importance of Kandahar was, it was also military and political. That is why there were constant battles between the Mughal emperors and the Persian kings for control. Between 1649 and 1652, the Mughals tried to lay siege to Kandahar. That was the time of Shah Jahan. Leadership
It was Aurangzeb. Aurangzeb's first invasion consisted of 50,000 troops. He laid siege to the fort of Kandahar on 14 May 1649. After 3 months and 20 days, Aurangzeb could not win Kandahar. He had to withdraw. Then again on 2 May 1652, Aurangzeb and Sadullah Khan laid siege to Kandahar. This time Aurangzeb's preparation was more than before. All the supplies were full of cannons and ammunition. But even after two months, Aurangzeb did not succeed in attacking the fort of Kandahar continuously. Finally Shah Jahan called them back.
Defeat of Dara Shukoh
Kandahar's failure became Shah Jahan's jewel. It was a battle of prestige for the Mughals. The Persian kings at that time used to say that Mughal emperors could conquer forts only by paying bribes without fighting. To disprove that, Shah Jahan invaded Kandahar the following year under the leadership of Dara Shukoh. In this battle Dara Shukohan poured huge amount of money. There are historical records that the cost of the entire invasion was Rs. 10 crores. Even so, Dara Shukohvala had to accept defeat. The Mughals had a huge dance. Dara's defeat was worse than Aurangzeb's.
The Soviet Union did
Now let's move on to the latest developments. After the end of World War II, the world was divided into two superpowers. Communists and capitalists. The Soviet Union was led by communists, and the United States was a capitalist country. In order to bring a communist regime to Afghanistan, the Soviet Union deployed direct tanks in Afghanistan. It was a kind of invasion of another country. How will the US take a watchful role after the Soviet Union claims to have invaded Afghanistan? They consider themselves the police of the world. Some gangs revolted against the Soviet Union. Taking up arms was not new to them. With guerrilla poetry, he tried to bring the Soviet Union to its knees. The gangs were funded and armed by the US, Pakistan, Iran and Britain. The Cold War lasted for almost 9 years. It all started in the 1980's. Reached the tip around 90. All this time in Afghanistan
About 11 percent of the population is said to have disappeared. This will give an idea of how many lives have been lost. In the end, the Soviet Union had to withdraw. The defeat was so great that it weakened the Soviet Union.
The Taliban's 'father' is America
The Taliban was born or raised in Kandahar. The groups that fought against Russia remained the same. They had money provided by America. There was a weapon. That is how the Taliban was born. He made a new declaration and that was to create an Afghanistan based on Sharia. Mohammed Najibullah was the President. He had the former support of the Soviet Union. But they failed. He stopped supporting. Here the Taliban were now active. They saw Kabul. Power was visible there.
The goal was to establish an Islamic emirate under the leadership of Mullah Omar. In 1992, President Najibullah resigned. Tried to take refuge in other places. But it did not succeed. The struggle continued. The Taliban had invaded one city after another. Najibullah eventually took refuge at the UN headquarters. He was accompanied by his brother. But in September 1996, the Taliban captured Kabul. On September 27, they stormed the UN headquarters and killed Najibullah and his brother. The bodies of the two were hung in the square. Not only that, but his genitals were also cut off. The Taliban brutally overthrew the president. Then came the Taliban regime in Afghanistan.
The handshake of America
It was September when the history of the world changed completely. On September 11, 2001, terrorists attacked the United States. Two planes collided at the Twin Towers of the World Trade Center. Both towers collapsed. The whole world watched this episode on TV. The United States has blamed al Qaeda for the attack. The Taliban, which sheltered them, targeted the United States. Their
The United States has sent troops directly into Afghanistan to provide security. A number of operations were launched against the Taliban. Many countries have spent money like water on the Afghan government. Meanwhile, Osama bin Laden was killed in Pakistan a few years ago. Obama's announcement of US revenge is complete, then Trump's, and now Joe Biden's.
In all, the Taliban have not been defeated in 20 years. One killed Osama bin Laden but the Taliban continued to grow. A few days ago, US troops began rolling out Gaza from Afghanistan. The Taliban resurfaced and in a few weeks captured the whole of Afghanistan, including Kandahar and Kabul. The Taliban is an American-born monster that they have not been able to eradicate. Today, the United States is in the same predicament as the Soviet Union. That is why China and Russia now seem to be backing the Taliban, which was once backed by the United States.
Which means it's about to be the most delusional time of the year, as well. Suppose a climax has occurred. But one thing is for sure. No emperor or superpower has been able to set foot on this barren land. Taliban means students. It is a Pashto word. The emperor, seeing the defeat of the superpowers, will guess why this Afghan land is called the 'graveyard of empires'.
