Anas Haqqani, the Afghan Taliban leader and a member of the negotiating team in Qatar, wrote on Twitter that Mr. Harry! Those whom you killed were not living chess pieces. They also had families who were waiting for the safe return of their loved ones.
Anas Haqqani complained that many of those who killed Afghan civilians during the war did not have the decency to show remorse and confess to war crimes.
The Taliban leader also wrote that the truth is what you said. Our innocent people were chess pieces for your soldiers, military and political leaders. Yet you lost in this "game" of white and black "squares".
Anas Haqqani opined that on your confession, I don't expect the ICC to summon you or the human rights activists to condemn you, because they become deaf and blind in the case of your people, but hope. That your atrocities will be remembered in the history of humanity.
