What Afghanistan looked like in the past.

[RazPaK]

So a foreign invasion made people become Islamic extremists and made them want to live in the middle ages?

Yeh, right.

Dumbest assessment of Soviet Afghan war by a poster after the Indians.

 

[KingMamba]

Just because u have more name sake Muslims in yr country then our Islamic republic with 97.2% Muslims then u know more about Islam then us!!!!!

But the reality is that u dont know even 0.00000001% Islam with those more so called muslim who r just mere 21% of yr entire population.

India does not even have more Muslims than Pakistan only begharat bhartis continuously repeat that sht.

So a foreign invasion made people become Islamic extremists and made them want to live in the middle ages?

Yeh, right.

No the thousands of tank shells that kind of put their country back into the middle ages made the choice for them.

Its USSr who invaded agreed, but I think all the west is to blame. the west installed their own puppet and this has been happenening for a long time. read William Dalrymples new book , return of a king.
USSR invasion seems most visible but the undercurrents were caused by all western powers

Afghanistan bore the brunt of violent islamic expansion since the first hordes of invaders ousted the incumbent tribes. So afghanistan was always a place of war and sub human attitudes.
it may have seen certain periods of peace but overall thats the place from which most of the violent islamic expansions started after it was established there. eg ghori , ghazni etc were all from there. and most of the turkish expansionists settled first in Afg before expanding eastwards.
So its nothing new for them.

Afghanis will never pardon pakistan for what they have done to there beautiful country once.

they started it, after all it was Afghanistan that laid claims on Pakistani lands, Pakistan just retaliated ,you guys did the same in east pak to safeguard your national interest in the North east, like you guys protect India's national interest ,Pakistan also protects its own, so please don't play this holier than thou rhetoric, after all India & Afghanistan are not snow white either

LOL Iranian wet dreams. Saudi arabia has a lot more diplomatic power than Iran will ever. Not to mention the worlds largest oil fields.

No the thousands of tank shells that kind of put their country back into the middle ages made the choice for them.

actually a decade ago it was tru. but the higher fertility rate in pak, and lower fertility of muslims in india because they are doing better than pakistanis has contributed to pak having higher number of muslims.
actually, bangladesh had most muslims, India was lower and pak least. but now pak has most, india is stil in the middle and BD has lowest. so kudos to BD.

LOL Iranian wet dreams. Saudi arabia has a lot more diplomatic power than Iran will ever. Not to mention the worlds largest oil fields.

America will destroy Saudi after they have destroyed Shia world. Go for it!

That is known as pushing own's own bigotry by twisting the tale.
That video is pre-Soviet invasion Afghanistan.. during Zahid Shah's rule.. After which the Soviets who were such close friends with India Indo-Soviet Treaty of Friendship and Cooperation - Wikipedia, the free encyclopedia
invaded and destroyed the country.. Raping, Murdering and ravaging the land ..

The Jihadists only came into the stage after there was Nothing left.. where warlords played havoc on Kabul..

Soviets destroyed everything in Afghanistan! Mujahids just stopped the invasion!

Do you guys realize how pathetic you people sound? The Soviet Union destroyed Afghanistan, really...? Facts and figures do not lie, most of what was modern in Afghanistan at the time was built by the Soviets, with Soviet money.

Pakistan was one of the biggest players in trying to oust the Afghan government and expel the Soviets. The so called 'mujahideen' which Was largely comprised of Pakistanis and supported by the Pakistani government was responsible for destroying much of Afghan's infrastructure which was largely built by the Soviet Union. Several years after the Soviets left the Afghan government finally collapsed and was overthrown by radicals that Pakistan helped create, but by then those radicals already sent Afghanistan into the stone age by destroying everything modern.

So a foreign invasion made people become Islamic extremists and made them want to live in the middle ages?

Yeh, right.

The Soviets are to blame, you see they invested billions in infrastructure and cleverly decided to team up with and train radical islamists to destroy everything they built. You see they were never at war with the Islamist extremists, instead they created and indoctrinated the Islamist extremists to destroy everything they built and accomplished, and Pakistan definitely had nothing to do with it.

 

[RazPaK]

Poor Indians. They want their name exposed. But when we expose them, they go and cry on their media.

 

[Spring Onion]

fuuny that Indians want to promote sari culture but love to beat the bush around for other countries when it comes to their local culture.

anyway this is NOT picture of entire Afghanistan.

The farsiwan Afghanistanis had always been like that. their women wore and still wear skirts even those Persian speaking Afghanistanis in Pakistan who came to Pakistan during first Afghan war used to and still wear what is shown in this video.

The Pukhtun population was different even back then and still is different.

the attire of both communities when it comes to women was always been different.

it has nothing to do with religion. its all about their traditional way.

the farsiwan Afghanistanis even have different marriage ceremony mostly influenced by Christian tradition of bride and groom rituals and dresses.

 

[Paan Singh]

Sex parties
Katthak dance
Costume mills
Tea shops
Gas plants
Western Dresses
Skirted women

Still exist in Afghanistan, and are not symbols of openness and prosperity. This video is restricted to the projection of the communist elite of Afghanistan in the 60's not the real rural Afghanistan. A.Stan was ruined by the communist Russians and later by their friends India via fueling a civil war and later by the land of the free and the home of the brave, contrary to what Bhaaartis would have you believe.

Thats why pakistan is most unpopular nation in a-stan

and india is most popular.Even afghanis visiting here call your facilities backward and india is their top choice in asia.
