Hezb-e-Islami Gulbuddin 3299139 224971023 2008-07-11T06:48:54Z Rjwilmsi 203434 gen fixes + link/fix date fields in cite templates (explanation [[User:Rjwilmsi#My_correction_of_dates_in_templates|here]]) using [[Project:AutoWikiBrowser|AWB]] The '''Hezb-e-Islami Gulbuddin''' is the larger of two factions of [[Afghanistan]]'s [[Hezbi Islami]] Party. Hezb-e-Islami Gulbuddin, (HIG) is considered a terrorist organization by Coalition Forces in Afghanistan. The original Hezb-e-Islami was founded in 1977 by [[Gulbuddin Hekmatyar]] who is now the head of Hezb-e-Islami Gulbuddin, (HIG). The other faction is headed by [[Mulavi Younas Khalis]] who split with Hekmatyar and established his own Hezbi Islami in [[1979]]. It is known as the [[Khalis faction]], and its powerbase is in [[Nangarhar]]. ==History== During the [[Soviet War in Afghanistan]], Hekmatyar and his party operated near the [[Pakistan]]i border against Soviet Communists. Areas such as [[Kunar Province|Kunar]], [[Laghman]], [[Jalalabad]], and [[Paktia]] were Hezb-e Islami's strongholds. The party is highly centralized under Hekmatyar's command and until 1994 had close relations with [[Pakistan]], from which it received as much $600 million in U.S. aid money to fight the war with the Soviets. Despite its ample funding, it has been described as having <blockquote> the dubious distinction of never winning a significant battle during the war, training a variety of militant Islamists from around the world, killing significant numbers of mujahideen from other parties, and taking a virulently anti-Western line. In addition to hundreds of millions of dollars of American aid, Hekmatyar also received the lion's share of aid from the Saudis. <ref>Bergen, Peter L., ''Holy war, Inc. : inside the secret world of Osama bin Laden'', New York : Free Press, c2001., p.69</ref></BLOCKQUOTE> Frustrated by the enormously destructive warlord feuding in Afghanistan, including the Hebi Islami shelling of Kabul in April 1992, Pakistan abandoned HIG for the [[Taliban]] in 1994.

In May 2008, the Jamestown Foundation reported that after being "sidelined from Afghan politics" since the mid-1990s, HIG "has recently reemerged as an aggressive militant group, claiming responsibility for many bloody attacks against Coalition forces and the administration of President Hamid Karzai." <ref name="Jamestown"/> ==Accused combatant prisoners at Guantanamo== Dozens of inmates at the United States prison at Guantanamo Bay faced allegations that they had been associated with the Hezb-e-Islami Gulbuddin. Originally the [[George W. Bush|Bush]] [[United States President|Presidency]] asserted it was not obliged to let any captives apprehended in Afghanistan know why they were being held, or to provide a venue where they could challenge the allegations against them. However, the [[United States Supreme Court]]'s ruling in [[Rasul v. Bush]] required the institution of a review. The Supreme Court recommended the reviews be modeled after the [[Army Regulation 190-8 Tribunal]]s that were ordinarily used to determine whether captives were innocent civilians who should be released, [[lawful combatant]]s entitled to [[Prisoner of War]] status, or [[war criminal]]s who could be tried, and who weren't protected by all the provisions of the [[Geneva Conventions]]. The [[United States Department of Defense|Department of Defense]] set up the [[Office for the Administrative Review of Detained Enemy Combatants]] (OARDEC). OARDEC administered an initial [[Combatant Status Review Tribunal]] for the 558 [[Guantanamo captive]]s who were still in the detention camp as of August 2004. Unlike the AR 190-8 Tribunals, the Combatant Status Review Tribunals were not authorized to determine whether captives were entitled to POW status, only whether they were "[[enemy combatant]]s. OARDEC also administered annual [[Administrative Review Board]] hearings. The Boards were only authorized to make a recommendation as to whether captives might represent an ongoing threat, or might continue to hold intelligence value, and therefore should continue to be held in US custody. Close to 10,000 pages of documents from the Combatant Status Review Tribunals and Administrative Review Board hearings were released after contested [[Freedom of Information Act (United States)|Freedom of Information Act]] requests. Dozens of captives faced allegations that they had been associated with the Hezb-e-Islami Gulbuddin. Some of the documents just alleged that a captive was associated with Hezb-e-Islami, without explaining why this implied they were an "enemy combatant". Other documents did provide brief explanations as how an association with Hezb-e-Islami implied a captive was an "enemy combatant".
