Afghanistan's oppressed Hazaras dread Taliban return

[Feroza_Banu]

I'm not saying, and it is not as simple either. You tell me on what ground is it ok for Muhaqiq, Khalili to be part of the government but not Taliban?

you can not bring example of the current government structure to turn a blind eye to the atrocities that these minorities have faced in the hands of the majorities... do not try to justify what has happened to them and do not try to implicate that they are being compensated through parlimental seats... the whole Afghanistan knows how their fear of return of Taliban is justified...

the topic is not about afghanistan parliment rather it is about the reality that every ethnic group in Afghanistan face and has faced through decades of civil war and occupation. it is not a time for us to point fingers at each other, or to bring the past back to present.. rather it is time for us to let the bygones be bygones and learn from our past experiences. lets promise not to make the same mistake... no matter who we are and what ethnic background we come from... only then we can work together for a stable Afghanistan for all afghans... for every single individual that calls himself or herself an afghan, for every afghan citizen... a country that represents every citizen.

and no i am not denying the atrocities against pashtoons, or any other ethnic group. but i am not going to equate one wrong with another wrong and try to for an equation with a right, because i am better than that. this is the least i can do for my country!

Divide and Rule is important to keep note of but we to be truly free of Imperial control we have to shrug away Imperial Notions of how our society's vitality should be evaluated

get rid of Regionalism; and State-Based ideas; Anyone focused on certain regions and Not Muslims as a whole as MeemWawMeemNoon is doing is neither for Afghans nor for Muslims.

How and when? Are you talking about the slaughter of Pashtuns in Kabul by Hazars forces or the ethin cleansing and pillaging of Pashtuns in northern Afghanistan immediately after operation enduring freedom? Or are you talking about the ongoing campaign of the minorities in Northern Afghanistan against Pashtuns?

Well you find those forces, exterminate them and leave rest of the Hazaras alone; then after wards we can send spies amongst Hazaras and find out which ones are really for cooperation which ones are actually Muhaqiq and Khalili supporters; and purge them.

There's no reason to blindly slaughter a bunch of people.

MWN,

Peace can only return when we all forget the past and reconcile in all honesty, not still conspire as in the form of this article. Taliban are sons of Afghanistan, I will still embrace if they open their arms.

Hey, I do not have a problem with anyone who call themselves Afghan. The problem is that our theorical world is romantic. That is the problem.

someone who truly advocates Islamic principles does not keep their focus on Afghanistan only.

Ok, so what do you suggest that Taliban should not be made peace with. Isn't what you say justifying in our case also apply to others?

In principal I don't disagree with you. Let these Hazaras to make peace with Taliban too. It goes both ways.

What ever, we rather deal with the problem at hand.

Yeah may be in your world things are that simple and naive.

Opressed my aas!

The Hazaras certainly have been portrayed as victims by the Western press. Pashtuns as the oppressors.

The reality is that the Hazaras have dished out quite a lot of terror on the Pashtuns, and the Pashtuns on the Hazaras.

They're definitely not innocent. But I hope, and think, the Pashtuns will make peace with them quickly.
