Jade-Abresham(Silk Way) Weekly is determined to build its present by critical assessment of the past (including traditional. Cultural and political thoughts) and hope perception of future.
Silk Way Weekly has fought from the beginning to the present with ignorance in the fields of politics and culture to realize self awareness. The present of Silk Way Weekly means fighting for justice, freedom, equality and rationality. The following Strategies, principles and guidelines form the backbone of Silk Way Weekly manifest.
In our view, tradition is neither totally backwardness and nor entirely guaranteeing freedom and prosperity. Tradition is the outcome of interactions between human and the society they lived in, have protected it and sometimes they have seriously criticized it. The main form of criticizing the tradition is criticizing itself. That’s why we at the same it is resourceful for us, we also consider it criticize able as well.
Political systems are both the face of politics and the origin of masses deception and incitement. However, masses have had little role changing the political systems. but they mainly have been changed by the power masters waiting for an opportunity to gain their most benefits from political upheavals. We assume “masses based politics” as the only way from lethal historical events, and bringing the political systems to justice and making them accountable and responsive to the people.
The previous governments of Afghanistan have been very little accountable or they have never been accountable, just and responsive. The overriding characteristics these governments are racial, gender religious, and political discrimination and they mainly acted violently against people as a major local policy and were the slave of their foreign masters. It means slavery and dependence are rooted in discrimination in all their forms. Discrimination leads political systems at the local stage because oppressive systems have no public base and as a result a weak government rules the country which only can protect itself and continue it rule by violence. We believe any government that its rule is based on violence and discrimination is a weak government and it is not able to protect the national interests and national identity of a nation. Discrimination is the coffins that eat up both the nation and the system. Therefore, Justice and rationality ensure prosperity and political independence.
Politics and citizenship never can be an individualized area. A political system based on a person never can be based on law and social wisdom; but is open to any forms of corruption. A political system based on a person is only laughing at history, human and society which ultimately leads to a crisis and fails. However transition from a political system based on a person to basing the system on the public, is only possible by showing up its self awareness roots. It means to fight neglecting the realities, covered policies and masses deceit. In such a battle, we believe people shall decide about their fate and form their fate tough acquiring knowledge and self awareness.
The much a human is aware of their rights the more they feel deeper infringement of their rights. The same goes true, if people think of human rights superficially. People only understand their rights if they directly question the realities to understand their actual position. Thus, we here tend to deeper the understanding of people from their human, cultural, political and historical rights.
It is not merely our belief that Women are not doomed to be kept at home and kitchen, but according to history it is a wrong perception about women. Women are equal to men and enjoy the same status and rights and they have been the subject of politics, even in some period of history, they have been denied of their rights or they have completely been sidelined from the public scene. In fact, considering women as inferiors to men or an exploited victim men, is a tarnished perception about the humanity. Now, while women are slashed by the most painful slashes of history and they carry on their shoulders pains of the most disgraceful and the most enslaved political system but they walk on the break line. They move from the tents to city and politics; a difficult and irreversible path.
Thus, Jade-Abresham weekly aims to be the voice of wisdom and collective determination. It is determined to report impartially the vents and voice the concerns of the people and provide the people the realities. Ultimately, it aims to criticize the crisis, society and the public behavior.
Silk Way Weekly mainly writes about:
Victims, excluded people, exploited people, refugees, the poor, hungry women and children, a society kidnapped by a terrorist group, genocide, forced displacement, gabbing the lands, poverty, ignorance, discrimination, violence, human rights, telling lies and the wickedness of the rulers.
