the only people that came close to ruling all of Afghanistan (not being Pashtun) were the Sikhs under Ranjit Singh

The only reason why sikhs were able to take over portion of Northern Pakistan from Afghans was due to the internal feuds within the Durrani empire. After the death of Ahmed Shah Durrani, rival tribes didn't take his successors seriously so as a result of disunity the Durrani empire steadily lost most of its territories conquered under Durrani, so it was more to do with internal conflict rather then the Sikhs. It should be noted that under Ahmed Shah Durrani the sikhs were repeatedly massacred and amritsar was leveled to the ground, also a very large maratha army was defeated at the hands of the Afghans in the third battle of panipat. The Durrani Empire at its peak encompassed modern day Afghanistan, Tajikistan, Turkmenistan, Uzbekistan, Pakistan, Iran, and india while the sikh empire (more like Kingdom) only encompassed northern Pakistan and indian punjab.

sikh empire (kingdom):

Also lets not forget that when the sikhs lost to the British, the Afghans defeated the British in 3 wars:

So you accept you are Arabized? Tell me of ONE SINGLE ARAB alive today who speaks the exact Quraish dialect in complete perfection in everyday life!?!?!
There are more than enuf people in pakistan who can understand the quran without the need of any arabs
I'm sorry i insulted you but your rants are just annoying and I can't bear someone who ignores all reason. FACT: Afghans HATE us.
FACT: Allah has created us into nations and tribes and there is nothing you can do to support your fascism

Probably, I think so if there is another best interests for America. I say again, Pakistan didn't learn today's WOT and fundamentals structures, it will lead to collapse in twenty years time before another third superpower appearances.

Without analyzing or fix solutions, Pakistan didn't improve much lately.

US is already there and don't think that they gone. They didn't come to leave. I don't think so , their war haven't even started yet that is just their light exercise within the mountains against Afghan pplz. I guess pplz are underestimating US till now.

Can you please elaborate ?? I never came across this reasoning before!! Quite unique to me.

Also make me understand the cost of the exercise.

Obama referred to a $1 trillion price tag for America's wars (not accepted by US media)
In the 10 years since U.S. troops went into Afghanistan behind the Sept. 11, 2001, attacks, spending totaled $2.3 trillion to $2.7 trillion (according to a study).

 

[jamal18]

Once the US leaves Pakistan will be sucked into Afghanistan. I can't see it being otherwise.

It's not even a matter of choice.

So what do U mean by Muslims then??
are they nation or who??
how U are going to characterize/segregate them??

answer1: We are a religion
answer2: Or who
answer3: In nations and tribes, as in the Quran

i think superpowers have a fetish for Afghanistan or something the British tried to take over Afghanistan they failed same with the Russians and now the Americans the only people that came close to ruling all of Afghanistan (not being Pashtun) were the Sikhs under Ranjit Singh

Afghanistan should just revert to democratic socialism and perhaps maybe then peace will reach the Afghan people

You gotta be kidding me!

What's now known as Afghanistan had been part of myriads of empires until 1702 when persian adventurer Ahmed Abdali set up his fiefdom and gave them a national identity. Then again it became buffer state between Russian and England.

The Afghans did win one 19th-century battle against a British-led Sikh army, but that was the exception that proves the rule. After that, the British emerged as the power behind the Kabul throne, maintaining their influence until the '40s before US and Soviet took over.

Even now every other guy in the region plays their geo-political game with the land, true noone wants to settle there.

our unification with our Afghan brethten is just a matter of 'when' , once it happens they could breathe fresh air under the nuclear umbrella of Pakistan , no one ever invade this unfortunate land again.

So When does Pakistan planning to invade Afghanistan ??

 

[monitor]

After seeing the fate of super power's in Afghanistan no super power will invade it only stupid will do that .

I am more than happy to see a united Pakistan/ Afghanistan. The drawbacks are;

1. Judging by this forum, I am amazed at the intensity with which the Afghans hate us.

2. Afghanistan is so far behind Pakistan in infrastructure that it will take billions to bring it up to Pakistan's standard. The reunification of Germany almost broke west Germany financially.

3. Our neighbours will perceive this as an annexation of Afghanistan by Pakistan.

My two pesatos...
