After the Taliban took charge in Kabul, Afghanistan in 1994, Commander Kashmir Khan opposed the Taliban regime and fought several battles with the Taliban. Kashmir Khan belonged to the Shura Nizami (military council) of Hezb-e Islami.〔 (Culpability: Culpability of specific individuals ), ''Human Rights Watch〕 Human Rights Watch, quoting the Afghan Support Project, reports that the Hezb-e Islami attacked Kabul through regular rocket bombardment, causing extensive civilian casualties, and damage to property.〔 (The Battle for Kabul: April 1992-March 1993 ), ''Human Rights Watch''〕 In 2002 the Hezb-e Islami is reported to have split, with the hard-line Islamists, including Kashmir Khan, remaining with the party's leader, Gulbuddin Hekmatyar.〔 (Former U.S. Ally Declares War on American Troops in Afghanistan ), ''e-Ariana'', September 26, 2002 〕〔 (Trojan horse or genuine schism? The Hezb-e-Islami split ), ''The Jamestown Foundation'', June 3, 2004〕 Other former senior members are reported to have wished to join in the democratic process. On August 29, 2002 the ''Asia Times'' reported:〔 (Osama is in Kunar, but the US can't get him ), ''Asia Times'', August 29, 2002〕 :''"If American forces venture into Kunar they will be against tremendous odds. Kashmir Khan - the most powerful Hezb-e-Islami commander - keeps his base in the mountains of Kunar. Haji S says that 'even the Taliban at the time did not disturb him. He is not interested in ideology or politics. He is interested in power.' This also means that Kashmir Khan is unbribable by the Americans." Kashmir Khan was reported to have been in negotiations with the Hamid Karzai government on February 22, 2005.〔 (Talks between Karzai, Gulbadin underway: Taliban holding talks with Afghan govt ), ''PakTribune'', February 22, 2005〕 The ''Asia Times'' reported, on February 8, 2006, that Khan was alive, and still serving as a commander for the Hezb-e Islami.〔 (The Taliban's bloody foothold in Pakistan ), ''Asia Times'', February 8, 2006〕 ==References== 抄文引用元・出典: フリー百科事典『 ウィキペディア(Wikipedia)』 ■ウィキペディアで「Kashmir Khan」の詳細全文を読む スポンサード リンク
