Reuters reports that Taliban leader Mullah Mohammad Omar has vowed to regain control of Afghanistan.
A message from Omar was sent to newspaper offices in the Pakistani city of Peshawar, the Afghan Islamic Press said:
"America and its puppets should know that we are determined to free and regain the sovereignty of our country."
Omar said Eid was coming at a time when Afghanistan and Islamic values "remain plunged into horror and Crusader vengeance" and Taliban and mujahideen (holy warriors) continued to be imprisoned by the United States in Cuba and Afghanistan.
"America...is trying to impose its puppet administration," the message said. "Moral decadence, desecration of Islamic values and crime are increasing in Afghanistan. Every ploy is being used to mislead women."
Omar must be greatly disappointed that over eight million Afghans defied the Taliban's threats and acts of violence to have their first say in their country's leadership. That is certainly something Omar and his islamofascist Taliban never would have allowed.
