Al-Qaeda on Tuesday congratulated the Taliban for their victory in Afghanistan over the USA and slipped in a call for “liberation” of Kashmir and other “Islamic lands” that are “in the clutches of the enemies of Islam.”
Hours after the Taliban declared that Afghanistan has gained “full independence”, Pakistan-based terrorist organization Al- Qaeda issued a statement that called for the liberation of regions such as Palestine, the Levant, Kashmir, Somalia, and Yemen.
The Taliban took over the majority of Afghanistan once US President decided to pull out troops from the Afghan soil. It took only a few hours for the Taliban to capture the capital city Kabul, unlike the intel reports of America that suggested that it would take at least 90 days for the Afghan government to fall if they do not defend.
“O’ Allah! Liberate the Levant, Somalia, Yemen, Kashmir, and the rest of the Islamic lands from the clutches of the enemies of Islam. 0’ Allah! Grant freedom to Muslim prisoners across the world,” said the message titled “Congratulations to the Islamic Ummah on the victory granted by Allah in Afghanistan!”
Al-Qaeda further said that it was the Almighty that humiliated and defeated America and termed the western country as “the head of disbelief.”
“We praise the Almighty, the Omnipotent, who humiliated and defeated America, the head of disbelief. We praise Him for breaking America’s back, tarnishing its global reputation and expelling it, disgraced and humiliated, from the Islamic land of Afghanistan,” the al-Qaeda message said.

Furthermore, the statement said that this “historic win” will open new ways for Muslims around the world to liberate from the West to Islamic World.
“With the help of Allah, this historic victory will open the way for the Muslim masses to achieve liberation from the despotic rule of tyrants who have been imposed by the West on the Islamic World. God Willing, the victory of the Muslim Ummah in Afghanistan shall prove to be a prelude to the liberation of Palestine from Zionist occupation,” it said.
