#1 Following the Soviet invasion of Afghanistan in 12/1979, a crucial meeting of nascent Islamist movements was held at Lahore in Fall 1990. It involved in secret session a conference of radical Islamists about which little was ever revealed. Its "stated goal and central resolution" was the creation of a "Great Islamic Republic" that would unite the Middle East by the year 2000. The elimination of the region's Jews and Christians was central to that goal. The meeting was hosted by the then powerful Jamaat-i-Islami (JI), an Islamist organization which traced its roots to British India and as noted, was founded by Maulana Abdul Ala Maududi (1905-1979). To this day the JI has been committed to jihad, and no peace in Afghanistan can be expected as long as it maintains its powerful presence along the Afghan- Pak frontier and throughout Pushtun-dominated Afgghanistan.

So that’s the start of very connected lone wolves we keep seeing — a jihadi from one group financed by another and supported or friends’n’relations with those in even more groups.

They are succeeding in driving the Christians out of the Ummah, but the Jews of Israel are more secure now than they have ever been, despite the efforts of the Harris-Biden administration. And the Middle East is as divided as ever, if not more so.

I’ve reluctantly concluded that no peace will come to Afghanistan so long as there are Pashtuns in it... and possibly not afterward, either.
