Pashtuns aka Afghans being Jewish is just a pure myth based on the claims of some Pashtuns who wanted a closer connection to the founders of Abrahamic religions after Pashtuns accepted Islam. The earliest reference we have to Afghans (Pashtuns) is 4th century Bactrian documents from Northern...

The burqa is not compulsary according to the announcement. Basically as long as you are covered in loose and non see through clothing from head to toe, it's fine.It's recommended to cover your face when dealing with men in close proximity. Another misconception is that veil or covering came...

Right, so US sponsored regime change doesn't hurt the integrity of Pakistani state but listening to the grievances of it's citizens somehow hurts it's integrity. I am confused. So Pakistan supported IEA by giving supply routes to IEA's enemies AKA NATO + US to kill IEA members and make sure the...

Once the IEA is recognized as legit government of Afghanistan. It's time for Afghanistan and Pakistan to sit together and talk about how to manage the border and wider relations much better than they have in the past. Some sort of solution where both sides benefit would be ideal. The best person...

I guess studying in Darul Uloom Haqania produces such thinking...

There is no harmony on this matter. The terms of treaty have been broken several times. It's all about power projection, not about mutual agreement or legality of actions. Pakistan is doing what it has the power to do, not what's legal according to the terms of the treaty

One of the terms of the treaty of Durand line and the Afghan government states that " In order for the treaty to be valid, it has to be re signed or re agreed each time there is a change of government in either country". That's the reason, the treaty was first, signed by Abdul Rahman Khan, then...

Taliban on Afghan TV shows actually mock the previous regime for allowing Pakistan to fence the border. They laugh at those Afghan supporters of Ghani who call him anti Pakistan. Their stance is "No recgonition of Durand Line". They have a vision of their Sharia based state for Af-Pak and...

Don't think they have any plans for having good relations with India. They'll keep it cordial but they realise India has always supported the opposite side e,g Communists, northern Alliance etc plus they would not want to antagonise their support base in Pakistan by seeming they are too close to...

I don't suppot any side. Just stating what I have observed looking at Afghan Taliban. TTP is a branch of Afghan Taliban and they share the same vision of implementing their version of Sharia in Af-Pak. They believe Pakistan is not a good gate keeper though as in their opinion most of Pakistani...

ISKP have ideologically have no grass roots support among the population Talib style deobandi ideology has plenty of supporters both in AFG and Pakistan. That's the difference. Pakistan has done a better PR job for the taliban in Pakistan than they coukd ever do themselves

According to Taliban thinking, Pakistan is not an islamic state, both TTP and Afghan Taliban. In their thinking the muslim population is held hostage by foreign puppets and need to be liberated. They cite Pakistan's 20 year support for USA/NATO during war in Afghanistan, where Pakistan provided...

Anyone who thinks Afghan Taliban will do the dirty work for Pakistan and fight TTP is having a laugh. It's the same TTP that protected and sheltered Afghan Taliban families for the past 20 years and now it's time for Afghan taliban to return the favour. TTP and Afghan Taliban are one and the...

Music is going to be banned. Afghans love music you know , That's a big deal for some people 😄

The new Afghan government will have normal diplmatic relations with all countries including India. Afghan people appreciate India's assistance in different fields and we hope to continue a good relationship with India and all our neighbours. We will not allow any country to use our soil for...

They were ordered by higher ups not to fight so nothing they coud do. Doha agreement is being implemented nothing more

Looks like Ali Ahmad Jalali is going to be the new interim president.

Anyone who understands Pashto or anyone who can read basic body language will spot that whoever this person was and what he was involved in, he wasn't mentally normal. What I have a problem with is the nature in which he was killed. His mental state wasn't taken into consideration when he was...

I do believe things will heat up in tribal areas once Afghan Taliban have total control of Afghanistan. Afghan Taliban publicly distanced themselves from TTP and condemned attacks on Pakistani soil due to certain pressures and to keep concentration on Afghanistan. Once Afghanistan is under their...

To be fair Turkey has more population than all other Turkic states combined even if people of Turkey are just Anatolians, Greeks, Armenians, etc who have been turkified linguistically. Turkey is the big brother of the Turkic world in a sense because of its size and power so maybe that's why they...
