DNA Special: Who will benefit from Kabul blast, ISIS or US?

There are two theories coming out on the Kabul attack. The first is that this attack has been done by ISIS Khorasan, who wants to claim Afghanistan through this attack and prove the Taliban as a toy of America and maybe it wants to avenge the death of ISIS founder Abu Bakr al-Baghdadi.

The second theory is that America has carried out this attack. Many experts believe that after what happened, America will find an excuse to stay in Afghanistan. It will continue to interfere in Afghanistan in the name of finding and killing the attackers. In addition, this will bring the US and the Taliban closer to each other and work in harmony with each other. When America talks to the Taliban and makes it its partner, then other countries will also have to talk to the Taliban and in a way, it will get recognition.

We do not know which of these theories is right, but if the second theory is correct, then it will benefit both the Taliban and America. It will be proved in the world that ISIS is a bigger evil than the Taliban. That is, in front of the big evil, people will start liking the small evil. And there will be sympathy for the Taliban in the mind of the world, while America will get an excuse to start another war after ending one and this time, America will not fight against the Taliban but with its new partner, i.e. the Taliban.

The bombings in Kabul have brought America to where it stood 20 years ago. The only difference is that the 9/11 attack happened 20 years ago and this time the date has changed to 8/26. But even after 20 years, the same question is still standing in front of America as a challenge, which is, how will it put an end to these radical forces?

On September 11, 2001, when the 9/11 attack took place in America, the first thing that the then-President George W Bush said in his speech was that we will hunt down and find those folks. Today, when US President Joe Biden gave his first speech after the Kabul bombings, his words were exactly the same. That is, in the journey from 9/11 to 8/26 in Kabul, nothing changed for America, be it the script, its dialogues and its target. If anything has changed, that is the President of the United States, the place and date of the attack. Everything else is the same.

Joe Biden is 78 years old. And he is the oldest President of America. He has also been the Vice President of America before this. But the kind of decisions he has taken since becoming the President, it does not seem that he is an experienced leader, but a novice.

After the 9/11 attacks, the US declared a decisive battle against terrorist organizations such as Al Qaeda and the Taliban. George W Bush named this fight as War on Terror. That is, this war was against ideology, which resorts to religion and jihad for its political purposes. But the radical ideology that America wanted to end in Afghanistan itself, spread from the remote areas of Afghanistan to many countries in the last 20 years. That is, the war that America went to Afghanistan to win, it lost that war and he started negotiating with terrorist organizations sitting at the table. Therefore, the big lesson for America today is that the radical forces that it wanted to eliminate, today one of those terrorist organizations killed 13 of its soldiers. And America could not do anything despite knowing about this attack in advance.

Till now, the whole world has been praising America's stand on terrorism because regardless of the government, their approach to terrorist groups and jihad has been the same. And no president ever held the former president responsible for it. But for the first time in America, there is a political debate on terrorist attacks and Joe Biden has blamed former President Donald Trump for this.

The bombings in Kabul have also given a new twist to the Afghanistan crisis. This attack on Kabul has ended the importance of the peace agreement between the US and the Taliban. So now the question is - when there is no agreement, with what face will the Taliban form their government in Afghanistan and with what face will the US allow this government to be formed?
