    Assalam aleykom

    Well, as you already know, I am new in this forum which I have discovered while doing some research on Afghanistan.
    I consider myself as Pashtoun, despite that I was born in Europe but from Afghan parents.
    I love my ethnicity very much, I am very proud to be born from pashtoun parents, they are well-known for their courage and bravery, for keeping promises, for dignity...
    However, without being pessimist, I think the true aspect of a pashtoun character is in the process of fading whether it is in Afghanistan, Pakistan or Elsewhere in the world.
    Nevertheless, I hope that I will enjoy and specially learn many things amongst you insh'Allah.

      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
