A line[Durrand line] of hatred that raised a wall between the two brothers -Hamid Karzai
For generations, the Hindus of India prayed for deliverance from "the venom of the cobra, the teeth of the tiger and the vengeance of the Afghan."
The men of Kábul and Khilj also went home; and whenever they were questioned about the Musulmáns of the Kohistán (the mountains), and how matters stood there, they said, "Don't call it Kohistán, but Afghánistán; for there is nothing there but Afgháns and disturbances." Thus it is clear that for this reason the people of the country call their home in their own language Afghánistán, and themselves Afgháns. The people of India call them Patán; but the reason for this is not known. But it occurs to me, that when, under the rule of Muhammadan sovereigns, Musulmáns first came to the city of Patná, and dwelt there, the people of India (for that reason) called them Patáns—but God knows!
-Ferishta, 1560–1620

Pir Sb, I believe Babrak Karmal was the first Secretary General of the PDPA when it was founded in 1965. Khalq was more a faction than a party. But yes Mur Muhammad Tarakai was the leader of Khalq. Can you name the novels he wrote?Originally posted by pir_Rokhan View PostMaster Khan is correct.

Sher Shah [originally Farid ud din Khan] of Afghan Suri tribe was known as the Lion King due to the fact that he killed a lion with his bare hands.He is recognised as an ingenious strategist by his rivals.
