Have you studied their campaigns against Imam Shamyl in Daghestan?

Let's settle this. It's neither the Persian nor the Arab Gulf. It's the Sumerian Gulf. Neither of your ethnic groups are Sumerians who according to the latest DNA research were from the subcontinent aka Pakistan. So shut up. And what did the Sumerians call it? 'A-aba'. If you have been...

You have too short a historical perspective. It's a few short decades ago since the Catholics and Buddhists were killing each other in Vietnam. Before that the Dalai Lama and his supporters were being ferried across the border by the Indians to carry out terrorist attacks in Tibet--let's ignore...

Given that the rulers of Iran are Levantine Arabs and not Persians, the point is moot.

Something tells me you don't understand the basis of the modern European state and how it came into being precisely because of ethnic conflicts caused by views such as yours. Please never move to the USA, West Europe, or Australasia.

Apologies. I misunderstood you. It's been a long time since I've looked at the way in which the Russians and then the Soviets took over the region. Essentially they replicated the divide et imperia strategy not only in Central Asia but also in the Caucasus. The current self-serving Russian...

You probably know more about Turkey's relations with its fellow Turkic peoples than me. I'm assuming this dates back to the days when Turkey tried to form a pan-Turkic alliance in the region and the local Russian quislings in the region objected? and the rather mysterious death of Turgut Ozal...

I think this 'they are a tribal society' explanation can be over-done. In that sense nearly every society in America and Europe is 'tribal'. The same for China and its family clans.

I understand that there's also a conflict ongoing between the Turkey supported Uzbeks and Iran supported Tajiks in Tajikistan itself? There was some riots a short while ago between the two groups as the Uzbeks or the Tajiks had part of their territory handed to the other deliberately by Stalin...

Odin being the name of a 'god' of the central asian iranian peoples...Oh, the irony. I've no doubt that these idiots are being funded/directed by the Russians. Given the relationship between the German Nazis who claimed Iranian origin and the Russian Slavs, and then on top of that the history...

The fact that you have lumped all those groups together shows that you have little knowledge of the historical culture of the region in which the pakistani state is now based...and if possible less regarding Islam itself.

This patti you should teach to someone else. I can't link the page so it's from the NPR on October 13 2011 and is an interview with the Muhajir mayor of Karachi--just important to mention that for the irony. 'Syed Mustafa Kamal, considers these ethnic Pashtuns a threat. In his eyes, they are...

The popularity of the 'Northern Alliance' and the alleged incredible military skills of Massoud can be worked out from the fact that before the US invasion, they had control of less than 10% of Afghanistan. And it wasn't as if the Russians, Iranians, Indians, and 'Stans were shy of providing...

This is like the proverbial tar-baby...despite its media claims of success, the NS regime is being dragged into a war with Sunni Pakistanis which began in FATA and has now reached southern Punjab via central Punjab. Meanwhile people who are not familiar with rural and small town affairs on the...

Persians were not the ones who converted the people in the area. Go read Khushhaal Khan Khattak's poetry about the role of the Yusufzai in bringing Islam to the area and the wars they engaged in against other Pashtuns who were Buddhists. The earliest written mention of the word Punjab occurs...

Jeeeezus. I don't know where to begin. I'm not able to post links yet so can only suggest you do an image search in Google of the following. Check a map of the empire of Ahmad Shah Abdali. Check a map of the empire of empire of Muhammed of Ghor whose real name was Shihab ad-din Suri on...

NS along with all his relatives should send some Pathans to Pathankot which is after all historically Pathan native land. :p:

Actually no religious riots happened in my family's part of Pakistan, and the Sikhs still live in the area. So no, I don't share your history of thinking such atrocities are acceptable. In any case what do atrocities between Pakistanis and Indians have to do with Indian Hindus carrying out...

The Ayatollahs probably would have had him sodomized in prison as they did to the Iranian kids campaigning for democracy.

3,000 - 10,000 dead in a pre-planned organized massacre where the police and politicians deliberately stayed away or stayed silent, is vandalism or a mass-riot? You think killing people by first flooding an area and then putting live electrical wires in the water shows a lack of pre-planning...
