Refleksi : Lain berita di Indonesia lain pula di Australia, silahkan simak kedua berita dibawah ini : http://www.analisadaily.com/index.php?option=com_content&view=article&id=74020:pejuang-afghanistan-latih-pasukan-khusus-australia&catid=18:umum&Itemid=27 Pejuang Afghanistan Latih Pasukan Khusus Australia Sydney, (Analisa) Gerilyawan Afghanistan yang bersekutu dengan panglima perang kontroversial membantu melatih pasukan khusus Australia untuk menghadapi Taliban, demikian menurut laporan, Jumat (29/10). Sebanyak enam pejuang yang dipimpin oleh Matiullah Khan sebagai tokoh yang paling berkuasa di provinsi Uruzgan selatan, menemui perwira Australia dan mengamati perlengkapan pertempuran di markas Australia Selatan dan Sydney, demikian menurut harian Fairfax. Laporan tersebut mengutip perkataan dari Departemen Pertahanan Australia bahwa Afghanistan "terlibat dengan sangat dekat pada rencana dan pelaksanaan tujuan pelatihan" bagi tentara pasukan khusus yang akan dikirim ke negara yang sedang berperang. "Hal yang penting adalah Pasukan Pertahanan Australia (ADF) bekerja menurut norma kebudayaan Afghanistan," ujar pihak departemen menambahkan, oleh karena itu di beberapa kawasan yang masih berada di bawah kekuasaan pemimpin lokal Afghanistan, bantuan mereka amat penting untuk menciptakan keamanan dan stabilitas keadaan. Seorang tentara pasukan khusus yang tidak diketahui identitasnya mengatakan bahwa gerilyawan menghormati dan telah "menyelamatkan banyak nyawa warga Australia". Sebanyak 1.550 pasukan Australia bermarkas di Uruzgan dan mereka telah kehilangan 21 nyawa tentaranya saat invasi. Harian itu juga mengatakan bahwa Perdana Menteri Julia Gillard merundingkan kerja sama Australia dengan "beberapa tokoh panglima perang" pada pertemuan 2 Oktober dengan Presiden Hamid Karzai di Kabul. Laporan tersebut menambahkan bahwa pasukan Belanda yang ditarik mundur dari Uruzgan pada Agustus telah menolak bekerja sama dengan Khan karena jaringannya yang diduga terlibat pembunuhan dan pemerasan serta menghalangi ditunjuknya Khan sebagai kepala polisi setempat. Mereka mengatakan bahwa Khan meminta jutaan dolar setiap bulannya kepada Amerika Serikat dan Australia untuk melindungi rombongan persediaan militer dan dituduh memiliki latar belakang sebagai pengedar narkoba. Khan sebagai sekutu yang akrab dengan saudara Karzai, Ahmed Wali Karzai, dilaporkan menyangkal tuduhan korupsi dan pelanggaran Hak Asasi Manusia, atau pun mengambil keuntungan dari peredaran narkoba. Ketika dihubungi oleh AFP, Departemen Pertahanan Australia tidak memberikan keterangan dengan sigap. (Ant/AFP) ++++ http://www.thenational.ae/news/worldwide/asia-pacific/afghan-police-train-with-australias-special-forces Afghan police train with Australia's special forces AFP Last Updated: Oct 29, 2010 SYDNEY // Afghan police have been training with Australia's elite special forces troops in a controversial strategy to tackle Taliban insurgents in the drawn-out conflict. The Australian defence department said today that the Afghans were members of a police unit from the southern province of Uruzgan, where 1,550 Australian personnel are based. It did not comment on a report they are guerrillas loyal to a powerful warlord. A spokesman for the defence department said: "The Afghans invited to Australia will fight side by side with our special operations soldiers, which is an important part of our efforts to stabilize Uruzgan." The Afghans "have been intimately involved in the planning and execution of training objectives during the final phase of field based training," he said. Australia's defence chief, Air Chief Marshal Angus Houston, said the exercises were aimed at preparing Australian troops for warfare in Afghanistan, where the country has lost 21 soldiers. "They are brought over here to do the final part of preparations for the next deployment," Air Chief Marshal Houston told reporters. "The important thing everybody needs to understand is this makes the operating environment safer for the Australian troops who are going to deploy." Fairfax newspapers said guerrillas loyal to the warlord Matiullah Khan, reputedly Uruzgan's most powerful figure, were part of the programme. The report said Dutch troops, who pulled out of Uruzgan in August, had refused to work with Mr Khan because of his alleged links to murder and extortion, and had blocked his appointment as the local police chief. Mr Khan reportedly charges the US and Australia millions of dollars a month to protect military supply convoys, and is accused of having a similar arrangement with drug traders. The Australian report also said Australia's prime minister, Julia Gillard, discussed cooperation with "warlordy types" during a meeting with President Hamid Karzai in Kabul on October 2, quoting a leaked summary. Mr Khan, a close ally of Karzai's brother Ahmed Wali Karzai, reportedly denies allegations of corruption and human rights abuses, or of profiting from narcotics traffickers. Professor William Maley, head of the Asia Pacific College of Diplomacy at the Australian National University, said Australia should be careful dealing with Muttiallah Khan. "Muttiallah is a classic example of the wisdom of the old warning that those who sup with the devil should use a long spoon," Mr Maley told the public broadcaster ABC. "There are degrees of shadiness in Afghanistan but his forces have been accused at different stages of having run extortionate road blocks in various parts of the province. "And there have even been suggestions that they have engaged in activities to simulate those of the Taliban so as to justify the continued role that they claim to play within the province." This month Ms Gillard warned that Australia could be facing another decade of involvement in Afghanistan, where efforts to subdue the Taliban have already lasted nine years. Australia's mission is to train Afghan forces until they are capable of taking over peacekeeping duties in Uruzgan.
