General, The National Resistance Forces (NRF Forces) General Khalid Amiry joined the National Resistance Front to fight against the Taliban and free his people from occupation after previously serving as an ANDSF officer. To Amiry, there were only two choices: "Rise up for Afghanistan's liberation or continue to breathe with this humiliation". Like many soldiers who defend the soil, Amiry believes Afghanistan was surrendered to the Taliban in a political deal, otherwise the Taliban would not have been able to defeat the security forces or the will of the people. Amiry says "the Taliban may be credible to a few in a limited number of places, but it wants to rule the rest of the Afghan people through repression… It is not impossible to defeat the Taliban, it is enough to stand against them and say no." Commander Khalid Amiry is firm in his belief that the Taliban's cruelty plays with the honor and dignity of the people and that it will no longer be tolerated. The people have made their decision against the Taliban, and this group cannot rule Afghanistan.
