After the death of Mullah Omar peace talks were stopped. But on January 11 2016, Afghanistan, China, Pakistan, and the US held a four-way meeting in Islamabad. Through a joint statement, the meeting enacted the condition of working as well as the participants agreeing on continuing regular meetings towards a peace process and reconciliation in Afghanistan.

We believe that the US established its military bases after the Bilateral Strategic and Security Agreements with the government of Afghanistan, and currently it attempts to drag Afghans into an internal war as well as intends to deceive public opinion under the pretext of peace in order to obtain its regional and strategic plans and aims.

As for this issue, US officials have always been uttering a unique message by using various expressions to Afghan militants as they should disconnect their bond with Al Qaeda, put down their weapons, and accept the secularized constitution of Afghanistan. Even though one day before this meeting the Afghan president had indicated that during this process, independence, the constitution and women rights are absolutely non-negotiable.

Consequently, it needs mentioning that the invaders and governments such as Afghanistan and Pakistan do not have the will of bringing actual peace; nonetheless, they keep sustaining the invasion of Afghanistan and colonizing the region. On the other hand, the militants who do not join the peace process under the conditions mentioned will be segmented from other columns, and afterwards the invaders and the puppet governments (Afghanistan, Pakistan) together with a joint understanding will lead to an unending war against Muslims and Islam under the pretext of “terrorism and radicalism”, as well as will vanquish those who stand against the invasion and colonialism. As a result the colonialists will gain their strategic aims without opposition.
