Pashtun president of india

[lalala]

all these desis lie and pretend they are Pashtuns but non of them actually are


it's like americans who all think they are "part cherokee" just because it has become fashionable to do so lol

[lalala]

He is actually blood Pashtun.

and i'm a navajo princess

[lalala]

you think some article posted on the internet qualifies as "proof" of anything?


if articles on the internet qualify as proof for any claim made by anyone then i am queen of atlantis, i can furnish an article to prove it

[Amir al Ghaznavi]

the hell with zahir shah he was no pakhtun...king of the country and couldnt speak pashto? pathetic!

i always assumed daud khan spoke pashto...if he couldnt...i would lose a tremendous amount of respect for him

[lalala]

Lalala,
Its a known fact that he was Pashtun. Its like someone telling Hamid Karzai he is not Pashtun.

what makes him, a man who devoted his life to india , was born there and had indian ancestors a pashtun?



having one pashtun in your line from countless generations back does not make a pashtun



by this logic i suppose i may be greek or iranian

[lalala]

You probably are if you have Greek or Iranian roots.

When Ahmad Shah Baba of Kandahar ruled India a lot of Pashtuns migrated enjoying royal status in India. So some left, some moved.

he might be on of them.

the point was that we all have "roots" somewhere which is why some indian who has been in india for generations calling himself a pashtun is a joke

[lalala]

Why is it a joke if he shares Pashtun blood? Why dont you get it dear?

why don't you get it dear? do you think the Pashtun race is some free for all where any self hating desi can pretend he is Pashtun because his great grandaddy of 50 generations ago was a half Pashtun who spoke urdu?


this is just a way for some indians to infiltrate our culture and butter Afghans up to fight their punjabi enemies for them


perhaps you have enjoyed a few bollywood movies and now wish to associate yourself with indians lol

[lalala]

I agree that language is important but we cant deny them rights to claim Pashtun ancestry. Some are really Pashtun.

How do you describe someone being a Pashtun?

some african americans are white but that doesn't mean they call themselves european



you cannot live for generations outside of a Pashtun land devote your life to some foreign nation to the point of taking office then insist you are a Pashtun


and i did not even say that language was important, there are people in pakistan who have learned pashto but will never be Pashtun- like nazia iqbul for example lol

[lalala]

We have a member here "NICK" he would argue that speaking Pashto makes you a Pashtun. So language does play a role.

then Pashtuns would be the first ethnicity on earth you could attain by learning a language


i suppose american military personnel who have been given the task of learning Pashto are all Pashtuns now as well then?

in any case this sort of nonsense is why Pashtuns are perpetually being infiltrated by ill intentioned interlopers

you don't invite every tom **** and harry off the street to wear your blood like some fashion accessory


not that you could anyway- since a person who would make such an absurd claim simply has no understanding of anthropological terms

it was a very sham full history of Mr. Hussain because he was belonging from a Muslim community and working for Hinduism, so if we following the war transportation system which was come in the hand of Pakistan which was little number of Buses so from that to this time Pakistan is struggling for becoming a strong Country, its was due to lack of active and able minds.

Is it my mental faculties that do not support me or you use some extra terrestrial logic in addition to a transcendental and highly metaphorical dialect of English language to make your point?

Its wrong for a Muslim to work for the betterment of his fellow countrymen? Does Islam not permit a Muslim to be considerate and lead his non-Muslim countrymen? What kind of logic is that?

As far as I know from my Muslim friends, a Muslim's first duty is towards his countrymen, towards his fellow citizens and towards his Watan. Dr. Zakir Hussain was doing nothing wrong.
