What the hell are you implying here? That second man is uzbek and najib looks far from a turk.

Answer me this, why do a lot of tajiks look like indians?

Why don´t you upload your private photo. Share your ''Aryan'' look with us :D

People from Afghanistan are dark-skinned. Don´t you guys get tired blaming yourself with evry new post?

[Khostai]

The dark skinned tajiks are Kashmiris and punjabis. Kabul has a large kashmiri and punjabi population. They settled here long time ago.

Panjsher is a mixture of Samarqandis, kafiristanis and Kashmiris.

Ow oke that explains also why Afghan Tajiks looks so different from Tajiks form Tajikistan...Thnx

I didn't saw him claiming to be white or Aryan, don't project your inferiority complex on others.

Yes Afghan PAshtuns like Paki Pashtuns are all brown only some are light skinned.

No your'e the fool. That Kandahari man looks far from an indian. He's dark skinned because he's always outside in the hot southern sun. Just look at his phenotypes and compare them with Zia's. The Pashtun man looks more indo-european compared to Zia who looks more indic. Stop playing the dumb card here, everyone knows tajiks are darker then pasthuns, there is even a theory that kabuli tajiks became mixed with indian slave women who were brought into Afghanistan by Durrani Pashtuns. Now im not denying Pashtuns aren't mixed because some of them have become mixed with hazaras and turkic people but tajiks have mixed with indic populations substantially.

[Kushan Prince]

there are many tajiks in bannu.And none of them look like indians/Punjabis

Infact they look more european than even pashtuns

Tajik is not an ethnicity like most falsely believe but more of a nationality. You got aimaqs from Ghor who are considered Tajiks by Pashtuns just because they speak farsi yet the aimaqs don't like being called tajiks. I was in an argument with this tajik guy once who said the exact same thing. In all honesty, most tajiks in Afghanistan are nothing more than persianized pashtuns or deseandants of the samanids who came from areas like Samarkand and Dushanbe.

All races and ethnicities are mixed. But no ethnic group is as mixed as the Tajiks. Even in Iran, ethnic Persians are a very small minority. The only 100% pure Persians are Zoroastrians. Since the arrival of Islam, everything got mixed up.

[vinyard80]

Tajiks don't have there own culture or language, they speak farsi a lanuage that came from Iran and have persian culture that was inforced on them by persians, they lack total self identity and now make thing up about Pashtuns. They are the most uncultured people in Afghanistan, nothing is there own everything is borowed from there neighbours and ethnicities that live with them.

if pashtuns are better than tajiks and pakis, then i don't know why so many pashtuns are leaving their own provinces and moving to north/west afghanistan and into pakistan. Tajiks are by far most educated people in afghanistan: they control everything: economy, culture, army,.. they are becoming a solid and strong reality in afghanistan. You should respect your own countrymen's, bro.

Dude, my mom is an aymaq from anar darra/zekin (farah) and they claim to be tajiks lol

Tajiks are a confederation of iranic tribes such as bactrians, sogdians, parthians and persians. Your claims about their pashtun origins are baseless (you cannot prove it, its just nationalist fairy tales).

Where did I said that PAshtuns are superior to Tajiks, and about porkis I don't know why you even bring them up here....

I am just mentioning the facts that Tajiks language Farsi is from Iran, its not like they borowed a couple of words what a lot of ethnicities do, no they just forgot theire native language and culture and toke that of Persians.....

Well that isn't true. Hazaras are by far most educated in Afghanistan. Don't believe me, go visit any university in Afghanistan. Tajiks are leading so far in military and economical basis. Pashtun is still in the lead in terms of culture. Poor Uzbeks doesn't lead in anything for now. These realities will of course change political if Uzbeks join forces with Pashtuns in politics.

Hazaras have improved a lot, thats true bro. But tajiks still ahead. Tajiks lead afghan culture, afghan army, afghan bureaucracy (talibans removed tajiks when they took over kabul and afghan state just collapsed), they run afghan media,.. etc.

Facts are facts. If we pashtuns wanna improve then we should not hide truth.

No offense wrora, but are you retarded or you just pretending? I am not trying to be offensive or anything, but you seems to not get general facts.

Let me ask you this. Have you ever been to an Afghan university? If you have, then you will know Hazaras is by far the most educated ethnicity in Afghanistan.

By the way, you need to read a few history books, as it seems you have no knowledge about Afghanistan in the nineties.

And yes, in term of culture, Pashtun have always been in the lead. You are right about tajiks, that they are political currently the strongest ethnicity, but don't disregard other ethnicities role in the Afghan society.

I completely agree we should accept facts, but that includes you as-well.

My point is: tajiks are strongest ethnicity in afghanistan and your proved me right. On hazers, you are right. They are becoming and highly educated tribe in afghanistan. I was in herat pohantoon few years ago, and I saw more hazara students than pashtuns and tajiks, despite being a minority in that province.

On pashtuns leading culture, that might be true prior to the russian war. In those times most of afghanistan was under pashtun control. Just look at afghan musci, most of them were pashtuns: ahmad zahir, nainawaaz,..etc but most of them were persianspeaker pashtuns. But now all that is gone. Pashtuns only lead suicide bombs and taliban attacks. We are failing while tajiks and hazers are becoming a strong and solid reality in afghanistan. We must wake up, or we will lose all our power in our country. I don't wanna create ethnic gaps, after all we are all afghans, but in a country divided along ethnic lines like afghansitan, we are losing this race.
