The 600 Arab Mujahideen in Tora Bora Have Enough Food Stocks for Six Months

Jalalabad (Islam News): In the eastern mountainous region of Afghanistan severe fighting is going on between the Arab Mujahideen, the Americans and their agents. American B-52 bombers continued their intense bombardment of the area on Saturday as well. Eyewitnesses have seen dark clouds of smoke rising from the region after the bombardment.

The Eastern Shura commanders disclosed that after their forces had captured and searched parts of the Tora Bora mountains, they had found no clue or sign of Osama bin Ladin or other Al Qaida leaders. There were also no Arab Mujahideen in the mountains. Initially, reports were being received that Osama Bin Ladin was residing in the caves of Tora Bora. This new information from Eastern Shura commanders has created more tension among the Americans. These tensions increased after the villagers of Tora Bora said that they had not seen Osama bin Ladin here and also are unaware of any news of his presence in these mountains. After this situation, the Americans desperately issued the statement that they did not know anything about Osama bin Ladin’s whereabouts, even whether he is still in Afghanistan or not. People coming from Tora Bora said that approximately 600 Arab Mujahideen remained fortified in this region, equipped with the latest weapons. The news that the Mujahideen have enough food stocks to last for 6 months is also common knowledge among the local people.

It should be known that Tora Bora is the region where Sheikh Osama bin Ladin constructed more than 40 long and wide tunnels during Afghan-Soviet war and every tunnel is interconnected with each other. These tunnels are spread over a region of 15 to 20 km. The Soviet Red Army fought for 4 years continuously to capture this region, but was unsuccessful. Melwa, another region near Tora Bora has more networks of tunnels.

Eyewitnesses told that after fresh clashes, the Arab Mujahideen have regrouped in the fortified high mountains of Melwa. Eastern Shura commanders said that they have faced intense resistance from the Arabs and it will be very difficult to defeat them. A Pakistani journalist who returned after visiting Tora Bora mentioned that there is no evidence of the presence of Osama bin Ladin in this region, although Eastern Shura commanders were spreading strange reports and disclosures to collect dollars from their American masters. They have no real information as to whether Osama or his companions are here or not.

An old lady's strange dream in favour of the Taliban's decision to evacuate Kandahar

Kandahar ( Islam News): There were good tidings from Allah (SWT) and pleasant dreams since the beginning of Taliban Movement. Similarly there are accounts of such good indications even now. According to a report, an old lady from a well known area in Kandahar city, Charsoo, saw a dream before the evacuation of Taliban from Kandahar in which there was clear indication to give respite to the disbelievers. The old lady saw a rush of beautiful men and women in the streets who were 200 in number. Their foreheads were shinning and the old lady got the feeling that these men, women and children were those who were martyred due to American bombardment. These Shuhada (martyrs) were indicating to the Taliban to leave the city, and they were reciting the following Ayah from the Quran:

"Famahhil lil Kafireena Amhilhum rowaida"
"So give a respite to the disbelievers, deal gently with them for a while"
[Sura At Tariq: 17]

The old lady learned this Ayah during the dream and in the morning went to a local religious Scholar and told him the dream along with the Ayah she had learnt. The religious Scholar told the translation of the Ayah and explained to her the meaning of the dream. After her departure he went personally to the Council of Taliban elders and recounted to them this strange dream. The Taliban elders told the local religious Scholar that they were engaged in a conference regarding evacuation of Kandahar and this would mean giving some respite to the disbelievers so their false sympathy to the Afghans is unveiled before the whole world.
