YouTube - High Alert! Theft at tomb of former Afghan monarch

TRAGIC !!!

I never knew this graveyard existed in Peshawar.
It's not listed anywhere that I saw.
Leave it to Graveyardof Empires to locate this video!

Very SAD.
Those tombstones were gorgeous.
Who could possibly get away with selling them anyway?

Such a significant historical figure too - it makes the attack on his and his mother's peaceful rest even more appalling.

this shows that pakis will even plunder graves if it makes them a couple od cents.
and the damge done to this grave shows the damage pakistan does to pashtuns.
afterall Ayub Khan was the one who defeated the british aka father of pakistan.

try focusing on something rather more positive and of some use. please. may be if it had been of some value to those in charge of looking after it, it wouldn't have been stolen in the first place. such things happen to objects carrying archeological value and last i checked you people had no value for that. WHO DOESN'T WANT A BITE FROM A GOOD SLICE OF CAKE??

if this place was under Pukhtun control this wouldnt happen.
what do you mean with you people.
i think you are the confused one.

i m not confused, i am simply not interested in glorifying my own image by accusing others. the stones are not stolen but sold off to someone. how do you dig off that stuff with out anyone else finding out??
you people who don't even bother with common sense before accusing others for all the crap coming your way.

this is tragedy. this is robbing the dead. when some people die and are buried, their bodies decompose by tiny bacteria, other peole get worms, the bodies of these thieves will be eaten by meat eating komodo dragon type lizards. oh, it will be a site when they are awakened and their ruh has to go.

But this is too heinous to even qualify as mere money-seeking.

There must have been some plot to undermine the historical self-image of Pashtuns ...?

Who would do such a thing otherwise.

There are so many other ways to generate cash -- no Pashtun would do such an insulting gesture, right?
