  • President wants US to help develop AAF

    President Hamid Karzai on Monday urged United States Deputy Secretary of Defense Ashton Carter to help develop Afghan security organs, especially the nascent Afghan Air Force (AAF).
    During a meeting at the Presidential Palace in Kabul, Karzai and the Pentagon deputy chief also discussed the Bilateral Security Agreement and regional issues.
    Defence Minister Bismillah Mohammadi and National Security Advisor Dr. Rangin Dadfar Spanta were also in attendance, a statement from the president’s office said.
    Strengthening Afghan National Security Forces (ANSF), particularly the air force, was vital to the signing of BSA and promoting bilateral relations, the president stressed.
    The Afghans, according top priority to peace and stability in their country, were insisting on enhancing the capabilities of their security forces, Karzai maintained.
    Ashton noted the significant improvement in ANSF strength and abilities, saying he was surprised at their rapid progress. He criticised the media on playing up minor and unimportant weaknesses of Afghan forces.

    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!

    -Ferishta, 1560–1620
