Jews in Afghanistan

[abubaker]

likewise you can't post about something you have no clue of.

You have never been to Afghanistan and you are using American favorable sources to backup your insane laims.


Afghan and hospitality are synanymous.

Hindus and Jews are respected citizens of Afghanistan. They are proud Afghans.


Kandahar and Jalalabad has a massive hindu population, even our Hindu members are happy with how they were treated.


I was going through our hindu members post and he said in Kandahar hindus were called 'Big brothers'.


so easy there .

laghman also had a huge hindu population, for example charbagh, kamal pur and so on, hindues and muslims lived side by side without any problems

Great, so this genius here just like everyone else puts all the blame on the Taliban.

Sighs, what has happened to our youth.

even though i support taliban i still have some reservations, i mean they did do some prety ugly stuff, but at the moment they are all we have that are standing up to the kufar and thier crusades

[imb706]

most people fake that, so they could get of afghabnistan and go the western countries i personally know people who have faked taliban paperwork, so that the UNHCR would grant them refuge in a western country

Totally makes sense. Instead of just leaving the country, he purposely incurred the wrath of religious nuts on himself and his family and made sure he can never return, not even to other muslim countries as they'd kill him, probably not in his lifetime. Yeah, a conspiracy theory if I've ever heard one.

In muslim societies, many of them anyway, apostasy is punishable (yep, it's punishable) by death. I've tried and left a few religions, I couldn't imagine one of them wanting to kill me for it.gl

clearly you have no idea how much it costs to come to west illigaly, not to mention the dangers you have to face on the way here, where unhcr would bring you over for free as well as providing a house for you, these people dont want to go to muslim countries where there are no work opportunities

Well, for one, I don't see how illegally is the only way to come to "the west" and also, yes, obviously you would put yourself in a situation where you'd be tried and sentenced to death only to be saved at the last minute, assuring exile for you and your family for all time, yeah...again makes sense. Anyway, any evidence of this or is it just your gut feeling?

i never said that mr. troll, read my post again

Um, you're coming off as a troll, because you said:

"clearly you have no idea how much it costs to come to west illigaly, not to mention the dangers you have to face on the way here," (By the way, isn't being sentenced to death a danger)" which was an obvious response to:

"most people fake that, so they could get of afghabnistan and go the western countries, i personally know people who have faked taliban paperwork, so that the UNHCR would grant them refuge in a western country"

Either you're implying he faked it, or at least a possibility exist that he did, assuming you mean he simply faked leaving Islam, or you're just trying to add something to inflame the thread, i.e. trolling. Seriously, keep up with yourself.

i never said you had to be sentenced to death in order to come to the west through unhcr, what part of faking the taliban document has to do with that,

by the bolded part i meant, the dangers of the routhe waling on foot and crossing oceans on boats

btw dont act like an expert, every single thread you have posted in you have showed resentment for all theing islamic, every thing you have said is based on assumption,

btw dont bother replying cause am not interested

Uh....., I never said you did, and I haven't a clue what this taliban document you speak of is. Either you're really new at English, or just a gnomo. Either that or you have no idea what I'm talking about. You could read the entire thread.

not interested

You couldn't come off as any less subtle.

What is your purpose here when you criticize everything to with Pashtuns, shouldnt you be busy catching all those child molesters running freely in American?

Boy, you're offended.

I haven't done that before, criticized everything. I've mostly just criticized you and your troll tactics. That obviously goes under your skin :P

[afghan]

That's really sad to hear. Imagine how it'd be if one of us were the last living Muslim or the last Pashtun in a non-Pashtun/non-Muslim country!



You must be confusing the "Jews = a religious group only" idea with convert Jews, most of whom would obviously not be Jew by ethnicity/race.

In reality, the term "Jew" doesn't just apply to someone who assumes the religion of Judaism but also to someone who is an ethnic Jew. A Jew may change his religion and become whatever he wants, but he remains a Jew in terms of ethnicity -- just no longer in terms of faith.

Further, Jews = Hebrews = Israelites (Bani Israel). Hebrew is these people's original name. Another name for Prophet Jacob (Yaqub) is "Israel" throughout the Bible. Jacob had 12 sons, one of whom was named Juda. "Judaism" and "Jewish" are descendants specifically of this Juda. In former times, a Jew was Jew by ethnicity and religion, but in today's times, he's Jewish by nationality as well.

well I do agree with your comments. there are many confusions. one is considered as a jew when born from jew mother. if a man converts to judaism he is considered as a jew, what so ever his nationality or ethnicity was. if a child is born from a jewish father but non-jewish mother not considered as a jew, if a child is from convert mother still considered as a jew. it sounds complicated.

[QUOTE=imb706;23397]First time Ive heard the NY times and Wikipedia described as american favorable sources. Chances are you don´t know what you´re talking about as you most likely pulled that description right out of thin air. So what if I havent actually been to a place, that excludes someone from knowing about a specific issue? What, is your antidote supposed to be a proper rebuttal or something? Seriously, stop peddling conspiracy theories. I see you keep bringing up Hindus (not jews, mysteriously) so I did some looking, and here´s what I found: http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Hinduis...an#Persecution Yeah, not a good example. As for Jews...http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Jews_in...ry_Afghan_Jews[/QUOTE

in afghanistan the only religious minorities who suffered are shias. they were targetted by Masood and the taliban both. jews hindus and sikhs are suffered due to the war in the region like any otehr afghan. most of them have immigrated from afghanistan due financial and security crisis, like any other afghans.
