The Republic in Afghanistan Did Not Collapse — It Was Handed Over!

Kokcha News Agency: Amid the ongoing crisis in Afghanistan, a narrative persists that the Republic “collapsed” or “fell from within.” However, the reality is far more sinister: The Republic was not destroyed—it was handed over.

From the very beginning, the Republic was engineered by figures like Hamid Karzai, Ashraf Ghani, and Abdullah Abdullah to facilitate a bloodless, software-like transfer of power to the Taliban.

The 20-year facade of democracy was nothing more than a theatrical display to deceive the international community and numb the Afghan people. Behind the scenes, a systematic elimination of resistance, targeted assassinations of intellectuals, and the preparation for the final surrender were underway.

Key figures like Burhanuddin Rabbani, Sayed Mustafa Kazemi, Daoud Daoud, and Mullah Abdul Rahman were assassinated, charismatic leaders were neutralized, and a ridiculous fringe of “democracy-clowning” figures with titles like “His Excellency” but no real authority was created.

The tragedy doesn’t end there. Even today, some who once applauded Karzai and Ahmadzai continue to refer to them with honorifics, attempting to absolve them of their historical responsibility in handing over power to tribal fascism.

Shame on you! If you’re polishing empty bullets, at least listen to the silenced voices of the people. History will not forget your hypocritical praises.

Today, the same project continues in a new form. With polished words, baseless analyses, and the rhetoric of “engagement,” they aim to once again hollow out and uproot resistance from within.

But no! This time, we will reclaim the words from the hands of the traitors.

It was not a collapse.
It was not a disintegration.
It was a soft handover.
It was engineered betrayal.
And the goal was to silence the voice of resistance—past, present, and future.
