Pashtun Forums is a good website. I have recently registered my membership and read different posts with interest.
While freedom of expression is right of every human being we should present balanced views which are historically factual. Our religion also teaches us to stay within the parameters of decency and ethics. Our Pashtunwali also demands that we should be decent and courteous. Unfortunately, some of the views posted by my fellow members do not serve any purpose, except for hurling accusations without quoting any reference or proof. The content of this website can certainly be improved by posting informative posts. The criticism of any individual and/or organization should be unbiased, balanced, and constructive based entirely on facts. Extreme views should be avoided while supporting and opposing a person or a statement.
I would like to draw attention to some of the statements made in different posts. In one of the messages it is written that “The most punjabizads and speak even a punjabi type pashtu ,,,achaa,,,etc. These traitors destroy the pashtuns for punjabis.Their pashtu is dead,gerat and pashtunwali dead..”. This statement is extreme in extent and devoid of any reasoning. This statement should not have been given in the first place, as it does not serve any purpose except causing a bad taste.
The honourable writer mentions in another statement that “anwar kamal is another traitor and belong to PML/if i am not wrong”. Calling someone a “traitor” without any substantial evidence is an absolute false statement. Belonging to any particular political party is everybody’s right. We should not blame someone for his/her party affiliation. By the way, I happen to know Mr. Anwar Kamal. He is a Pashtun with very good credentials, both at political as well as personal level.
Similarly, there are statements about Saifullahs which contain objectionable content. One of them states that “and all of the above their pakipied mother kalsoom saifullah marwat along with their marwat supporters are the ,,hater,,of pashtuns and pashtunkhwa”. Another statement says that “Kalsoom saifullah marwat voted 70 time in refrendum held in 40s for the support of Pakistan.” This too has been quoted without any reference and/or evidence. The honourable writer ought to refrain from making such indecent and inappropriate statement. Saifullah family is a highly respected family not only because of their industrial and business background, but also because of their historical background. Their mother, Begum Kulsum Saifullah Khan is a noble and humble lady respected by all well wishers as well as her opponents. This is no more than a hearsay that she voted 70 times in referendum. However, we must appreciate that she was and still is a supporter of Pakistan.
The writer with username “Aab-e-Hayat” has a balanced approach in expressing his views which are much appreciated.
We should shun the habit of tarnishing image of anyone by leveling false allegations as it will not serve us. We should behave very maturely. We still have great leaders and politicians amongst us. Our discussion should be informative, factual and purposeful. Unfortunately, this kind of attitude does exist at state level as well. For example, it was the state of Pakistan represented by General Musharraf who leveled false allegations publicly about our hero Dr. AQ Khan.
Truth will always prevail as it did prevail in the case of Dr. Khan who is still a great hero of every Pakistani but General Musharraf is damned by most of Pakistanis. Even the state power could not distort the fact, although all efforts were made to malign Dr. Khan.
I also request the moderator to keep reminding the writers that Pashtun Forums is a forum for literary and purposeful discussion. Criticism based on facts should be encouraged while leveling false allegations should be discouraged. This is how this forum will become a great place for discussing politics and suggest viable solution to the problems that our province as well as our beloved country are faced with.Comment

What is this "country"?This is how this forum will become a great place for discussing politics and suggest viable solution to the problems that our province as well as our beloved country are faced with.
As far as I know Pashtuns are mainly in two countries.
1. The motherland and home of Pakhtoons, Afghanistan, the land of Ahmed Shah Abdali (rahmatullahi alaih) and where Fakhr i Afghan, Bacha Khan (rahmatullahi alaih) is buried.
2. Pakistan.
I think you are under the impression that this is a Pakistani site. It is not.
It is a forum for Pashtuns and guests of Pashtuns to discuss affairs of all Pashtuns, regardless of the so-called "Durrand line", which I suspect you as a Pakistani nationalist are a staunch supporter of.
On another note, sometimes truths maybe expressed in a crude or unpleasant manner, but on the other hand a fox may speak or call for evil with the softest and sweetest tongue.* * * * * * * * * * * * * * * * * * * * * * *Comment

Unfortunately while our cultures and nation is one and the same, the political divisions have created small gaps. It isn't just Afghanistan v pashtunkhwa, but even within Pashtunkhwa. I think we need to be more even-handed and understanding towards our own, before we talk of unions.Originally posted by TimbaktuComment
