Amir Ismail Khan

HERAT'S SAVIOUR
"Amir Ismail Khan, the only War Lord that was getting it right"
FATHER OF HERAT
"He really was an Ok guy, he brought a lot peace to Herat, his main mistake was to call himself Amir of Herat without the goverment's consent" . . .
AMIR MOHAMMED ISMAIL KHAN
There is no stranger story; than Amir Ismail Khan
The real corruption is found; in what went wrong
On fighting two wars; he brought peace to Herat
But, forces unknown surely did not have his back
Khan is the key that there's no hope for Afghans
As along came the government who foil his plans
A Warlord now the Minister of Energy and Water
In their attempt to take away Amir’s Khan ardour
But, his ardour against the Taliban, did not cease
Then now we had two people who wanted peace
With hero; Ahmed Shah Massoud being the other
Amir Khan was to Massoud, to each like a brother
Massoud; was to martyred, by the evil Hekmatyar
Under circumstances that were, strangely bizarre
So you see; there was never a real plan for peace
The Taliban as you know their fight did not cease
Strange after Biden’s orders to leave Afghanistan
Who up 2 weeks ago; was still fighing the Taliban
Again; has been brought down no longer to fight
Has now joined forces with them by his own right
Thus; leaving no chance for peace, in Afghanistan
So, I'm left with was this all part of a master plan
Afghans along with the Taliban, are sure no fools
With us all diving in being nothing but, their tools
As along came the government, who foil his plans Who up 2 weeks ago; was still fighing the Taliban Indiana Shaw . . . : /
