The followers of evil and corruption, after three years, have faced a shameful defeat in every aspect. Despite their utmost efforts, they were unable to seize even a small piece of land in the country. They did not receive the necessary support from the region and the world, and they have become even more despised among the people. They are currently in an unprecedented state of being without a subject and do not know how to misrepresent Afghanistan’s current situation through propaganda against the Taliban and create a rift between the people and the government.
Not only have the followers of evil and corruption been misguided, but also the media opposing the Taliban, which is supported by foreign intelligence organizations and evil and corruption, have been misguided and are entangled in the same fate.
If someone among Afghanistan’s forty million population loses their life due to a car accident, a gas cylinder explosion, a criminal incident, personal enmity, or other non-political events, the insurgents and biased media attribute their deaths to the Taliban; they aim to create distrust between the people and the government and to create a rift.
If we look at those countries in the world that are ranked among the top ten due to the improvement of the security situation, still dozens of people lose their lives every day due to criminal incidents.
It is an accepted fact that when security is ensured in the country, the destructive activities of evil and corrupt groups are prevented, and security incidents do not make headlines in the media month after month, then car accidents, gas cylinder explosions, and other criminal incidents become opportunities and subjects for negative propaganda by the government’s opponents. They use these subjects to show the general public that the situation in the country is still not good and that there are reports of killings every day.
In the rest of the world, criminal offenses and mysterious murders are a common issue, but the way the Taliban’s opposing media cover these topics is rare; because once they are sensationalized, criminal incidents are also attributed to the government. Afghanistan’s current situation, in terms of criminal incidents, is better than many countries, because in the rest of the world, this graph is very high; the Australian “SBC” media in 2024 collected and analyzed data on criminal offenses, mysterious murders, and other crimes from 146 countries. In these published figures, Venezuela ranks first among the 146 countries, followed by Papua New Guinea, Haiti, and other countries. Iran, Turkey, and the United States are also mentioned in this group.
In Afghanistan, criminal incidents are politicized because the Taliban government is progressing, its relations with the region and the world are expanding day by day, reconstruction is ongoing, and the gaps between the government and the people are narrowing, which has made evil and corruption feel their permanent failure; they will inevitably try to present a distorted image of Afghanistan.
