Jews opinion about the origin of Pashtuns

Hajj mubarak brother :-):smitten:
I just want to share a story. I was performing Hajj this year and few days before Hajj started, Hajjis were arriving performing the Umrah before they have to go Minnah. So it was extremely busy and it was the last Friday before Hajj. So I was making my way back to the hotel which meant going in the opposite direction to the people doing Tawaf.

Anyway the Saudi are there telling people off to not go the wrong direction and just being a nuisance at times. I saw this Pashtun guy most likely from afghanistan and when I saw him the first thing that came to my mind was Taliban. Because he was dressed in the manner plus his Turban was of the same design pattern.

He was with his mother and he too was going in the wrong direction, now there were at least 15 guards telling Hajjis off. But when this guy with his elderly mother walked not a single security guard said a word. forget word they didn't even look at him in the face they looked down.

I thought they know who the boss is. :toast_sign:
 
I highly doubt Pashtuns were jews. There can be genetic inputs.

Actual jews are said to have arrived in Cochin (Kerala) in 587 B.C. and there are documents of them arriving in 70 A.D.

near Dera Ismail Khan actually!
not just named also have TAKTH E SULEMAN(THRONE OF SULEMAN) and KOH E SULEMAN(MOUNTAIN SULEMAN).
the problem with pashtun history is its not written its passed on as an orally tradition!!
