Butcher ready to ‘lead’ his nation
MEGAN PALIN
EXILED Taliban co-founder Mullah Abdul Ghani Baradar
— known as “Baradar the Butcher” — is poised to lead Afghanistan.
The announcement of a new administration was expected to be made yesterday after Friday afternoon prayers (local time) but has now formally been delayed at least another day.
Baradar, who is currently in charge of the Taliban’s political office, is set to be joined by Mullah Mohammad Yaqoob, the son of late Taliban cofounder Mullah Omar, and Sher Mohammad Abbas Stanikzai, in senior positions.
The Taliban’s supreme religious leader, Haibatullah Akhundzada, will also focus on religious matters and how to govern within the framework of Islam.
Baradar became known for developing some of the Islamic militants’ most deadly tactics, including planting “flowers” – improvised explosive devices – along roadsides and has been described by terrorism experts as even more cunning and dangerous than Omar, according to a 2010 profile in the Times of London.
Baradar, whose brutal history attracted the moniker “Baradar the Butcher”, arrived in Kabul two weeks ago.
“All the top leaders have arrived in Kabul, where preparations are in final stages to announce the new government,” a Taliban official said.
The Taliban confirmed Baradar had returned to his “beloved country,” which he fled soon after the US invasion in 2001. He was later captured in Pakistan, moving to Qatar after his release in 2018. (COWARD THAT THEY ALL ARE)
Footage released by the Taliban-affiliated Al Hijrat TV shows helpers forming a barricade with their arms to protect him from dozens of wellwishers screaming support and punching the air in triumph.
More were waiting outside, with other footage showing a mass of cheering supporters mobbing his convoy with cries of “Allahu Akbar,” or “God is great.”
Meanwhile, there are reports of heavy fighting in Afghanistan’s Panjshir Valley, where the last rebels are trying to hold out against the hard line Islamists.
The Taliban face the enormous challenge of shifting gears from insurgent group to governing power, days after the United States fully withdrew its troops and ended two decades of war.
But they are still battling to extinguish the last flame of resistance in the Panjshir Valley, which held out for a decade against the Soviet Union’s occupation and also the Taliban’s first rule from 1996-2001.
Fighters from the National Resistance Front — anti-Taliban militia and former Afghan security forces — are understood to have significant weapon stockpiles in the valley, about 80km north of Kabul.
Yesterday pro-Taliban Twitter accounts aired video clips purporting to show the Taliban had captured tanks and other heavy military equipment inside the valley.
The claims could not be verified and the rebels claim they are holding out.

The name defines the ruler
The perfect leader for the cult of death.
I have a dream
A world free from the plague of Islam
A world that has never known the horrors of the cult of death.
My hope is that in time, Islam will be nothing but a bad dream

Exiled Taliban co-founder Mullah Abdul Ghani Baradar was shown getting a hero’s welcome from the extremist group as he arrived back in Afghanistan this week — as formal negotiations started Wednesday about forming a new government.
The feared leader, nicknamed “Baradar the Butcher,” was mobbed as soon as he stepped off a Qatari government aircraft Tuesday in Kandahar, the spiritual home of the Taliban, which he helped start there in 1994.
The Taliban confirmed he had returned to his “beloved country,” which he fled soon after the US invasion in 2001. He was later captured in Pakistan, moving to Qatar after his release in 2018.
