I don't want this to turn into a bashing thread either..

During the opening ceremony of the 16th Asian Games, each country enters the arena along with its national anthem. When the afghan team entered the arena one could hear that the national anthem of Afghanistan was replaced by a tune that is recognized for Northern Alliance and its national and ethnical melody.
The scandal was a fact and the president of the Afghan Olympic Committee Mr Mohammad Zaher AGHBAR is the one who has decided to play this specific tune instead of the national anthem of Afghanistan. This was done to provoke and to spread the hatred when ever possible. This also shows the weakness of the afghan government. Not even the Asian Games was spared of the tug-of-war where Northern Alliance and warlords are fighting for the power and will take every chance to provoke and humiliate the Afghan people.
