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!

Oh I love Swat people, We made so many friends from Swat during the war there.
People from Swat came to Swabi aswell and we let stay in our house and Beetak (guest house) etc, They told us to came to Swat for dinner .

^ you do know when people say come over for dinner and you don't know them THAT good that thet are joking right?
But I am going there for dinner lol.
I just want to see Swat and the familes we helped, It was hard for them living in Swabi during summer because it was too hot for them.
We had ACs anyway .

Villages are becoming more modern as times goes on.
my village in old had nothing but houses made of mud, Now there are big houses, ACs, mobiles, Internet etc.
