AFGHANISTAN News - Afghanistan President Hamid Karzai marked his Id-al-Fitr with an optimistic note, asking Taliban Leader Mullah Muhammad Omar to join the peace process.
In turn, Mullah Omar's message issued for the Id was inflexible, blaming American forces who were ignoring the peace process and about to leave the nation.
The president's address came after prayers for Id at the mosque on the presidential palace grounds and an official statement said that the President wanted Taliban leader to support the peace process and cease the blood shed, leaving several innocent citizens die everyday.
“The President once again called on Mullah Muhammad Omar, the Taliban, and other angry Afghans, to honor Id by joining the peace process and stop killing our brothers and harming civilians.” An official statement said.
The recent threats to burn the Koran by a Florida pastor naturally invited uncomfortable rage in Mr. Karzai and in his note he also criticized the move. In a respectful tone he affirmed that burning holy book would not harm the book because Koran already secured in every Muslim's heart and mind. He urged to stop disrespect the holy book that has been inspiring innumerable people through out the ages.
Mullah Omar on the other hand remarked that the victory of Islamic nations over infidels was certain. He said in a fiery tone that the invaders were on the verge of leaving Afghanistan and it was a victory.
