Taliban Supreme Commander and Ruler Mullah Omar's spokesman Syed Mohammad Tayab Agha said that they have completed plans to end the American influenced government in Afghanistan and are awaiting Mullah Mohammad Omar's orders.

He expressed these thoughts during a special interview to Sana News, conducted recently at an unknown location. Syed Agha said that they gave up Kandahar along with several other cities as a deliberate strategy and that Taliban leaders took into confidence all tribal leaders. He said that Taliban suffered loss in the beginning however by the grace of Allah they are now better organized and in a better position than before.

Syed Mohammad Agha said that apart from Kabul they have total internal control of 80% of the region. He went on to say that a delegation of Taliban leaders visited all areas of Afghanistan where they met Afghanistan's tribal leaders and informed them of Taliban's future plans. All the elders and leaders of the tribes welcomed this delegation and ensured them of their unconditional support.

In an answer to a question Syed Mohammad Agha said that a proper coalition has not been formed between Taliban and Hizb-e-Islami and that they are attacking American force bases independently from time to time. He also made clear that Mullah Mohammad Omer did not leave Afghanistan during the American attack but changed his location from time to time and even now eight hundred Taliban members are assigned to protect Mullah Omer. Agha said he met Mullah Omar about a month ago and that Omar is always in touch with Taliban commanders even though his location changes from time to time.

Agha went on to say that they last met Osama during the American attack until he left for Kandahar however Osama is always in complete contact with Mullah Omer. He said several of Osama's aids are still with them and they are in contact with several others. He also said neither Osama nor the Arab Mujahideen did not harm Afghanistan and always helped the Afghan nation in general and the Taliban in particular.

"Where were Hamid Karzai and Gul Agha while attacking Russia when Osama was fighting against Russia?" asked Agha. "We say that America did not want to capture Osama rather take control of Afghanistan. It has only fulfilled its dream for the time but be it known that like Russia, America will face destruction in Afghanistan." and went on to say that "we will hang the agents after coming to power again
