He added, no doubt the Afghan government is not alone able to fight terrorism because this war requires universal firm determination and partnership. Afghanistan is a direct victim of terrorism. NATO sustainable support of ANDSF is very effective in this war. Amir Mohammad another military-political analyst said, in the last 18 years, the Afghan government has been emphasizing continuously that main hideouts of terrorist locate beyond Afghanistan and must be targeted there. The Afghan people expect the world to undertake practical measures for elimination of terrorists beyond borders. He went on to say, 18 years strong presence and deep involvement of NATO, US troops in Afghanistan didn’t produce expected outcomes and instead to be eliminated, the terrorists got momentum further even to that extent that today directly challenge US administration during their so-called peace talks and tell Americans what to do or what not to do and refuse the US-backed NUG government to talk with. Sakhidad an ex-army officer (retired) said the world community specially the US should not leave Afghanistan alone and further support it in war on terror. Because at present we are facing strong and vital threats from regional and global terror groups. ANDSF are leading combat missions heroically and need more support.
