And we're stubborn in every field of life. It's like, we can never be wrong, and if someone proves is wrong with figures and facts then he's a traitor. This mentality needs to stop. And it needs to stop now, if we're to progress in any aspect of life.
Thank you for posting such a sensible post. Totally agree.
There are so, SO many other more important issues than history and culture right now. When will some people learn?
Traitor in what sense? Bacha Khan I mean
Maybe Europe should have thought of this when they joined the U.S. in a operation of 'mistakes' in Iraq and elsewhere in Middle East. Which resulted in millions of deaths, millions of immigrants, thousands of rapes, where women, men AND children can't go outside as they're sandwiched between...
When I say non-Pashtun Afghans are much more open minded and rational, THIS is exactly what I've been talking about. Pakistanis hold this false notion that Tajiks-Uzbeks-Hazaras hate Pakistani people, which is not true. I've been to Afghanistan twice, and Kabul and Mazar (first Tajik majority...
I'm surprised to hear women even work in such open places in Pashtun areas of Afghanistan, but they must've been very brave to go against the odds even with dangers of Talib tyranny on their heads.
Rest in peace, if not in land of ruins.
Even Afghanistan has more more successful sportsmen in boxing, judo, taekwondo and these kinds of sports than entire boneless Indian nation combined. Heck, they were even beaten by Afghanistan in South Asian championship of football only a few years ago lol.
Indian women are more manly and...
Finally someone who understands this. The game is being played between Russia and U.S. and Muslim countries are being used like toilet papers to fight their wars. That's why it boils my blood when any, ANY Muslim, tries to reason why their country should side either Russians or Americans: none...
They can't participate even if they wish to. Shoplifters, thieves, etc who're Muslims already are being labelled as terrorists. These poets might get executed for disrespecting Hindi by speaking their own mother tongue. What a secular nation.
I'm pretty sure one of the Scandanavian countries (probably Finland) already got this regulation? In fact, even the fathers to be get months off, all paid. That's what you call family orientation. Things financial difficulties can ruin in life...
You're not getting the point. U.S. and Russia both are two sides of the same coin. A few decades back the U.S. used our government to stand up against Russia, now Russia wants to do opposite. In both situations, instead of giving a hand, our government will give their entire body away; which is...
Funny how people this a Muslim, migrant or cultural issues. U.S. and India are in top list of countries where rape incidents are reported the most, don't tell me those rapists happen to be immigrants/Muslims too?
And as for Pakistanis making this migration issue, just a few months a bunch (or...
The only reason Pakistanis felt we had to intervene in Soviet was is because we were made to believe so: by the Western media, which was very much pro-US. And by our government which was to fighting on US' behalf. There was no direct threat towards Pakistan at all. Even if we agree that Soviets...
@A-Team my friend. I'd let you off thinking this might be your place to vent out your frustration, and therefore never bothered responding to any of your threads previously. But I think I need to have a few words with you. Well, actually essays directed at you, but do take out the time to read...
Like we did by helping the mujahideen and U.S. topple Soviets? And like we did by supporting the Taliban over Northern Alliance? Or maybe, by allowing US access post 9/11 to fight the Taliban?
At the end, and looking at the mess today, who taught whom a lesson?
I doubt you've ever met a Dutch person, because you wouldn't say so if you had. Dutch people are one of the very few people who're GENUINELY polite, respectful and extreme friendly.
Germans can't top their manners for another few centuries.
So in the sixties and seventies US was all roses over Pakistan, a way to keep away Soviet Communist interaction in anyway. And now the roles have swapped. Russia is as reliable as US. Besides, they're not the superpower or economic hub that matters anymore.
Either way, the development projects...
