The issue of the American plane crash was the subject of special media attention today, and it is really important. The intense concern of the American people, by creating doubts about the cause of the crash, has subsided a little and the Americans, despite the initial news about the explosion and the possibility of a technical defect, but the separation of the cockpit and engines from the wings, before the crash, strengthens the possibility of destruction and the bitterness of the incident because it overshadows the gross defeat of the Taliban, and in any case it will be a new economic, security and political shock. 

The seizure of Kabul and the western provinces by the United Front also confronts the United States and fears that it will prevent the establishment of a puppet government and put Pakistan in a dilemma; Now the world is faced with a legitimate government, including Kabul, with two-thirds of Afghanistan's provinces, and a government close to Tehran and Moscow that sees Iran and Russia as the winners of the war and America as the spenders. 

Although it was said that Mr. Yunus Qanuni is in charge of the Kabul as a special committee and not as an agent of the government of [Burhanuddin] Rabbani, no one has taken this claim seriously and the Westerners have not hidden their concern. We should wait for further incidents. Pakistan announces the establishment of the Southern United Front; In order to confront the Northern United Front, the news of the capture of Kandahar airport will also arrive, and Mullah Omar has announced that the war with America continues, but in an unconventional manner and claims that he is still in Kandahar. 

They were in the midst of the battle. They expected me to go to their summit for the opening of their conference, but because the Ministry of Jihadi Agriculture did not have a favorable opinion with them, I preferred that they come. Mr. [Rajba Ali] Haydarzadeh, [Wali-Faqih's representative in Jihad Agriculture] reported and the news of the renewal of the representative rule by the leadership after the merger of the two ministries. I spoke about the confrontation between the laity and the religious authority and the necessity of the presence of the clergy, as a guide and religious expert in the organs. Jihad clerics worry about the future of their careers. 

Mr. Ali Larijani, [Director of the Broadcasting Organization] came. The propaganda and practical policy in Afghanistan was discussed. I said, it should be for the purpose that the official and legal government is functioning in Afghanistan and it should remain, and only for the purpose of bringing the cabinet together, negotiations should be held with the company of religions and ethnic groups, and later in the propaganda it should be said that America has become the heir to the hatreds of war and has not achieved results. He asked for an interview with Jamjam newspaper and to give the text of his memoirs [of 1361] to it and spoke for the program of the [first] festival [news and political programs of Sadavsima], which we will open tomorrow. He said that the second Khordadi have decided to break the sanctity of the leadership's speech about the illegitimacy of opposition to the policies of the regime and to publicize its interference in executive affairs. 

In the age of Mr. [Hussain] Drudian, [Ibrahim] Sheikh and Political [Roshank] came from the heads of the office of consolidation and unity. By raising the problems of the office and the differences as well as the problems of the student movement, they said that they have gradually come to the conclusion that moderate ideas and policies and a constructive program are the most suitable and beneficial way for the interests of Iran, the revolution and the people, and they intend to move in this direction. They asked me to help them in this way and they regretted their past behavior. 

I was the guest leader. They were satisfied with the results of their trip to Isfahan and said, The son of Mr. [Jalaluddin] Taheri Isfahani, [Imam Isfahan] had prepared an inappropriate text for his welcome speech, but when he saw the large presence of people, he abandoned it and said relatively positive things. Although there were negative points, and Messrs. [Seyyed Mehdi] Yathrabi and [Hossein] Mazhaheri did not speak well about Khayr Moghadam's involvement due to their lack of political awareness. In the case of Afghanistan, they are worried that America's practice of beating the Taliban will become a precedent and experience for America. It was decided that practical and propaganda policy should be based on the existence of an effective legal government. They said that they do not agree to leave the amendment of the drug [anti-trafficking] law to the parliament.
