Mohammad Agha District - Security and Politics

Security and Politics

Mohammad Agha has been severely affected by conflict, mainly during the Soviet invasion, around 85% of houses have been destroyed and a large-scale displacement, mainly to Pakistan, took place. Many refugees returned at the beginning of the 90s, but were again displaced by the fighting between the Mujaheddin and later on between Talibans and Jamiat Party.

On 25 November 2009 a bomb facilitator was captured by ISAF forces in Qal' eh-ye Shayhee along with several other suspected militants.

Famous quotes containing the words security and/or politics:

    Those words freedom and opportunity do not mean a license to climb upwards by pushing other people down. Any paternalistic system that tries to provide for security for everyone from above only calls for an impossible task and a regimentation utterly uncongenial to the spirit of our people.
    Franklin D. Roosevelt (1882–1945)

    A baby changes your dinner party conversation from politics to poops.
    Maurice Johnstone (20th century)
