    In his book, 7 Deadly Scenerios, Andrew Krepinevich, explores a wide range of non-conventional sources of threat to United States security. Of these, threats he dedicates a chapter to Pakistan’s political and socioeconomic failures. Pakistan, reeling from the assassination of its president on Feb. 24, 2013, faced a week economy, strained relations with India, sectarian conflict, and a fragile democracy. As the government slowly lost its credibility and control on its people, the Loyalist army leaders attempted to impose control and order per their orders. This time they faced a problem – “they had to contend with Islamist elements within the armed forces, led by a clique of young colonels and a few junior generals, who command perhaps a third…

    In 1979 there was a war between the Soviet’s and the Afghani’s in which the Soviet Union attacked Afghanistan in order to back up the people’s democratic party of Afghanistan (PDPA) because they wanted Afghanistan to be run by socialism instead of communism. The reason of the invasion was because Afghanistan started to separate itself from the Soviet Union so that they could make a “new national identity”, which I believe, is completely fair, and the Soviet’s did not like that. So the Soviet’s attacked Afghanistan so the Afghani people had to create a group to fight back called the Mujahedeen, which also means strugglers. The Mujahedeen were supported by foreign governments who all wanted the Soviet Union to stop the invasion. These foreign governments included Saudi Arabia, Pakistan, and even the United States. Each of these governments wanted to help Afghanistan keep its freedom, which included the communist bloc. The Soviet Union had a difficult time knowing who to go after and who not to because when the call for Jihad went out it included ALL Muslims. The Russians had no chance against the Mujahedeen because there were so many of them and because the governments who helped the Mujahedeen gave them weapons and they also knew Afghanistan and its mountains better than the Soviets. So, by the end of the war the Mujahedeen ran 75% of Afghanistan by 1982. Some of the Russian soldiers even deserted their groups to join the Mujahedeen. The reason that the…

On February 15, 1989, the Soviet Union withdrew its troops having failed to implement a sympathetic regime In Kabul. In a decade brutal conflict, an estimated one million civilians were killed, as well as 90,000 Mujahedeen fighters, 18,000 Afghan troops, and 14,500 Soviet soldiers. A new civil war began after the Soviet’ withdrawal between the Mujahedeen factions that were fighting the Soviet invasion. Two of these factions were the Taliban ,made up of mostly Afghan,and Al-Qaeda, made up of Arabs that came from Saudi Arabia and other Arab states, led by Bin Laden. With the weaponry and the money left from the United States , the Taliban emerged as victorious of the civil war and took over the country in 1996. Over the years to come, the Taliban government would shelter Osama Bin Laden and his group Al-Qaida would become a major security threat to the U.S…

For example, when the children were being interviewed, gunshots and bombs went off, yet the two little girls were completely calm. Depending on their influence, people either begin to grow resentment for the Taliban, the Pakistani government, or the United States. When civilians get hurt from U.S. missile strikes, the Taliban use the aftermath to recruit…

    The government advertises a civil war, by expressing hatred towards the ethnical minorities in Afghanistan, primarily the Hazara. Pashtuns are taught to hate the Hazara because of the history and slight religious difference the two people have, despite both being Afghans. As Amir’s curiosity about Hazaras grows, he thinks, “School textbooks barely mentioned them… I found one of my mother’s old history books… people called Hazaras mice eating, flat nosed, load carrying donkeys…”(10). The corrupt and biased government has erased the Hazara nation from the school textbooks, and curriculum. Both, Pashtun books and people don’t have pleasant to things to say about the Hazara; who by some aren’t even considered to be humans. When the new government took office in 1996, many people celebrated, but the Hazaras know their fate in Afghanistan. In a letter from Hassan, he writes, “We all celebrated in 1996 when the Taliban rolled in… Hassan in the kitchen. He had a sober look in his eyes… God help the Hazaras now… two years later they massacred the Hazaras in Mazar-I – Sharif”(224). When the Taliban came into power all the Pashtuns celebrated, they had false hope of an end to their problems. The Taliban eventually become the worst thing to have happened to Afghanistan. The Taliban’s hatred for the Hazara is even more severe than the past governments of Afghanistan. They massacre innocent…
