Herat

[Mayana]

To me all non Pakhtuns weigh equally .

I found my facts from wikipedia and khyber.org and I shared em here.

I wont mind if you give me some statistics about pashtun population in herat.

I do mind giving you some statistics about Pashtun population of Herat. What, so now only Pashtuns are human beings to you? Non-Pashtuns are subhumans? You base your respect for a population of a city and your tolerance for a city based upon its population? Khejalat wakajha.

You get your facts from Wikipedia, eh. Good job. I'll write an article on there tomorrow and describe how milk is black, are you gonna share that here too?

[Mayana]

Did whole of Herat come and kill your brethren? You can't generalize and you cannot and must not think higher of yourself just because you were born Pashtun/

ايبټ اباد ډير ښائيسته وطن دے خو د افسوس خبره دا ده چې کوم د ښار زړه دے هغه فوځيانو نيولې دے

دغسې هر يو ښار کښې چې کوم خائيسته ځائي وي هغه د فوځيانو چهاونئ وي

او خائيسته ځکه وي چې د عوامو مداخلت پکښې نه وي او فوځيانو هغه ځائي پخپله جوړ کړې وي۔

آفريديه
دغه ځاے اول ميره وا هيڅ څوک به ورته نه تلل
لکه څنګه چه حما ےو ماما د تربيلے زمکه په ۶۸ کښ په ۲ غواےانو ورکړے وا هاهاهاهاها
اوس تربيله جنت دا

Heratis are the most patriot Afghan more than any other region in Afghanistan.

Tell this to Iranians who till the day of today can't stop trying to snatch back Herat from us. Over our dead bodies! And not to forget, the city used to be full of Westerners before Russian war. I had this teacher in Holland (I think she was partly Russian and partly German) who had lived in Herat for over fifteen years.

Good to see how developed the cities of farsiwaans are.

Yeah, I guess they are lucky they haven't got as friendly neighbors, init?

Dear Forumers,

Don't get angry here I will post a song by a Herati who is singing in Dari and is not a Pashtun and see his patriotism. Many people have question patriotism of Heratis and non-Pashtuns of Afghanistan.

It’s quite sad to see this ancient city of Ansari, Jami and Gowarshad being literally defaced by disorganized and ad-hoc skyscrapers’ and architecture which are making it resemble a poor man’s hybrid of Dubai and Desi-Peshawar.

The city needs to be developed,no? has it not been through nearly 4 decades of destruction?

Herat is a city of Afghanistan and its Pashtun majority.

LOL If you're going to count Herat as Pashtun majority, then you might as well go for the trifecta and count Balkh and Kabul as Pashtun majority.

As an aspiring civil engineer, I see a fine line between progressive constructive development and raping the cultural and architectural identity of a city, especially one as antique as Herat.

Tell me more about Herat. As a scientist, I always love learning about ancient cities. Have you been to Herat? How was it in your opinion?
