Couldn't stop my tears. What a hero. You deserve the highest award ever. May Allah bless you and your family. Please write your story. The fact that you want to help the Talibans now is commendable. But the best thing is you have no hate in your heart against your tormentors. Sharing your video with my groups and my kids.

@Nihilist the answer to your question is why is the west or the people who hate islam torture muslims in every possible way and sugarcoat their act of terror with names like freedom, liberalism and so on? And we are not in conflict with everyone,we will do everything that it takes to stand for what we believe in Isnt it that simple for such 'educated' people to understand What is freedom? Is it following what you believe in or is it following what others beleive in?

[@joyia.1]

What is wrong in helping the Talibans? There is not a single proof of war crime done by Talibans. And people after knowing the war crimes of the NATO forces are not asking them rather are protecting them by blaming the Talibans.

I have seen Brother Moazzam growing up as a youth and I can tell you that out of All the Muslims that I knew He was one of the most mature and had a sincere intention, after being locked up in Bagram and Guantanamo bay for NO reason except to help the people of the world who were suffering. He has opened an organisation called CAGE which helps Muslims and other people who have been detained for NO APPARENT REASON and I urge ALL people to support this group because tomorrow Big Brother could come and detain you WITHOUT ANY EVIDENCE OR ANYTHING and if if groups like this are NOT supported then don't cry when your human rights and God given rights are abused. May Allah bless you brother Moazzam I always loved you and looked up to you.- Brother Nisar ( Peggy). Please remember me in your Duas and forgive me for any wrongs that I might have done 💯💚

He will be remembered as a traitor in the history. Infact he has been sentenced to death on the charge of treason. He sold out many Muslims not only Pakistani national anyone who came Pakistan during that time he sold out. Yesterday I had read story of Abu zubadaya from wiki pedia he was Palestinian national and in his profile they wrote that they purchased him from Pakistan in $10 million. I felt pain in my heart when I read all things happened to him in quantanama jail, acute brutal torture by the national who always talk about human rights. What musraf sow that he is reaping.
