    Afghan Athlete Wins Bronze in Bodybuilding


    The Committee for Afghan Athletes in Europe said that Osman Anwari, an Afghan athlete won a bronze medal in the Europe Bodybuilding Championship on Sunday.

    The two-day event was organised in Kive, capital of Ukraine.

    Osman Anwari is an Afghan athlete living in Austria.

    Athletes from 16 countries had participated in this competition.

    A week before this victory, Osman Anwari had also won the Austria Bodybuilding Championship title for the eleventh time in the 90 kilogram weight category.

    A line[Durrand line] of hatred that raised a wall between the two brothers -Hamid Karzai

    For generations, the Hindus of India prayed for deliverance from "the venom of the cobra, the teeth of the tiger and the vengeance of the Afghan."


    The men of Kábul and Khilj also went home; and whenever they were questioned about the Musulmáns of the Kohistán (the mountains), and how matters stood there, they said, "Don't call it Kohistán, but Afghánistán; for there is nothing there but Afgháns and disturbances." Thus it is clear that for this reason the people of the country call their home in their own language Afghánistán, and themselves Afgháns. The people of India call them Patán; but the reason for this is not known. But it occurs to me, that when, under the rule of Muhammadan sovereigns, Musulmáns first came to the city of Patná, and dwelt there, the people of India (for that reason) called them Patáns—but God knows!

    I don't see how this is great news. It seems like the afghans in the west are loosing more of their Islamic Morales as they live there. This is nothing to be proud of.

      ^ competitive bodybuilding is actually far more popular back home than in the West (at least that's what I assume from the youtube videos I've seen & articles that i've read).
