"Praise Allah, I would like to inform you of some news from the west of the Emirate - Herat, Farah and Namruz provinces to the borders of Helmand province." "Praise Allah, the morale is rising! Every day the Taliban brothers are defeating the blasphemous and profane enemies, the conquerors, and inflicting great pain on them." "I have much uplifting news and at the same time saddening [news] for anyone who's passionate with our de-facto status." "One time we received some information about a great convoy of large trucks carrying supplies for the heretics, guarded by the apostates. Praise Allah, we grabbed our weapons, got prepared and rode the cars. When we went out to the general road the cars stopped. You want to know why? The cars stopped because they needed gas. It was an hour's walk in the sands until we would reach the mountains and ambush the convoy there. We didn't have any money to buy the gas for the cars. If the people from the villages would not have fed us we wouldn't have the money to feed ourselves." "If we would not have plundered the apostates' cars after killing them or running away from them in order to sell [them] and use the money to buy weapons like RPG rockets and 'Al-Ashtadud' to attack the Americans in the future." "There are some in the Taliban brotherhood who hold Kalashnikovs in one armory. They don't have money for bullets. In Allah's will, I will finish with the following:" "Let the brothers know that I published this news only after being asked by the leaders of the Taliban to do so, to publish this information so that the Muslims will know that we are in urgent need for money until we'll drive out the heretics." "Brothers! Allah is my witness that I only speak of what I see with my own two eyes. If sufficient money will be found, not a single heretic will sit in Afghanistan." "Peace be upon you, Allah's mercy and blessings." "...Do not forget us in your prayers."
