Role of Tajik people in Soviet invasion of Afghanistan?

[Elite Pakhtun]

What was the role of the Tajik people of Afghanistan when the Soviets invaded?

I know the country of Tajikistan was part of the USSR, and was very much in favor of the invasion and even fought along side Russian troops in Afghanistan.

The Soviet Socialist Republics in Central Asia, including Tajikistan, supported Moscow’s invasion of Afghanistan in 1979. Many citizens of present-day Tajikistan served alongside the Russian troops in Afghanistan. The Central Asian nations benefited economically as a staging area for Soviet troops and supplies. However, Tajikistan’s material support for the Soviet Army made it a target for the Afghan mujahideen—supported by the US, Pakistan, and Saudi Arabia—who launched attacks in 1987. Thousands of Tajiks and Uzbeks also secretly joined the Afghan jihad. Fighting with the likes of Afghan-Tajik mujahideen leaders Ahmad Shah Massoud and Burhanuddin Rabbani and their Jamiat-e Islami, these Tajiks were introduced to Islamism and Tajik nationalism.

Anyone with more details than this? This only talks about Tajikistan the country, not the Tawwwjiks in Afghanistan.

Pakistani, how can you of all people call anyone stupid? Lmao

How can a country who never exist at the time actually support the invasion?
Just because there were tajik in Russian army, that does not mean tajik supported the invasion. May be they do but this does not support the argument. Uzbek changed their loyalty every single day.

Well I'm not arguing anything. I'm asking anyone who knows anything to tell me what ethnic tajiks within afg did.

Elite Punjabi, that's some clever reasoning you're using lmao.

[Elite Pakhtun]

Wow, don't you think that's a bit ironic coming from a Punjabi Pathan?

There are more Pakhtuns/pathans in Pakistan, so you saying Punjabi etc just shows how you're grasping on to anything to desperately find some diss. Either answer the question in the thread, or piss off. You're not intelligent, and your disses are sub-par.

Damn, seems like I really hurt you Punjabi. No wonder you stalked my posts, posted on a thread I previously commented in and then promptly deleted your response.

Yeah I stopped because I felt bad for how stupid you are. It's essentially abusing a child every time I diss you. Shabah, wruk sha... kum thara

Quit wasting my time you childish troll. Go back to being Kuni for tawwjiks. That's your only skill.

The average Punjabi is stronger, taller and physically superior when compared with you, education wise they have achieved 10 times more than you, heart wise they have had countless wars and battles. I would rather be associated with a Punjabi than a flat headed mongolian dwarf that is a waste of oxygen on earth. You guys have sold out to every single invader that has entered your lands. You people remind me of Golum from lord of the rings. Absolute trash.

All ethnic groups of Afghanistan fought against the Soviet Union. The Tajiks were no exception. The Tajiks of Afghanistan are slightly different from Tajiks of Tajikistan and Uzbekistan because they have lived with Pashtun/Afghan for more than 300 years. Despite the differences between Pashtuns and Tajiks, a phenomenon called "Afghaniat" has emerged over time in Afghanistan. All ethnic groups despite our differences and internal fighting subscribe to this idea of "Afghaniat". I think one of the reasons the Americans killed Ahmad Shah Massoud just a few months before invasion of Afghanistan was because he might have been opposed to their invasion so he was eliminated. There were many great Tajik mujahideen who fought for their land and there were also pro Soviet Tajiks just like there were Pashtuns.
Even Heratis who are more known for their art and culture fought against soviet Union like everyone else. Here is a documentary about Herati Tajik Jihad against Soviets.

LOL I'm half something else, half Pashtun. Both my sides are from warlike groups. Punjabis like yourself claim all sorts of ancestry to make themselves feel better about there heritage. No wonder you have no GCSE's, I bet you work as a mechanic or something disgusting like that. Actually you're probably claiming benefits.

All this talk from you about Punjabis being tall and warriors just shows how brainwashed you "Pathans" are. I'm guessing you're a Piracha or some other Indian origin group.

You're a bit of a liar homie. You had a thing against that Rooh guy and you shared your reddit user ID and the spam post you made on gay subreddit pretending to be him, saying he was gay.

That user profile talks non-stop about Biharis. It's probably a safe bet to say you're bihari.
