Pakhtoonism is not for sale

A recent advertisement in which Bollywood actress Zareen Khan had represented Pakhtoons team at T 10 league as the brand ambassador of General Petroleum is not the first time that Pakhtoon/Pustun identity has been used as a cheap tool to gain publicity.

Women like Reham Kkhan and Ayesha Gulalai had also been bent upon using their Pakhtoon identity as a tool to gain some sympathy from the nation for their own personal benefits and exposure.

Use of Paktoonism/Pushtunism as the icon of publicity seems to be all the rage these days and now this time a Bollywood actress is representing it, which is definitely quite a concern for the masses of KPK/FATA who have respect for their identity and don’t want it to be promoted by controversial figures (especially from across the border).

Firstly, if Zareen Khan’s ancestors were from Swat, aren’t there other decent people from the same region who could be offered a brand ambassadorship by the owner of General Petroleum to represent our team?

Secondly, if the government has allowed it to have good relations with India through cricket diplomacy, they should keep in mind that Musharraf also tried to diplomatically develop good relations with India during 2005 through cricket diplomacy and that never worked!!!

But instead of betterment, our diplomatic relations with India worsened over the issue of Mumbai attacks where India blamed Pakistan for direct involvement in the attack by backing jihadist group to destabilize India.

In the context of sports and especially cricket, it’s the duty of credible public figures like Shahid Afridi as well as others to strengthen the Pashtoon norm in a way that brings pride instead of embarrassment to their fans and supporters.

Owners of sponsoring companies/organizations should also take care of the country’s pride especially when its a matter of identity.

It’s my request to the chief minister (who remains quite active about Pakhtoon issues) to formulate some legislation where punitive action is taken against those who use Pakhtoon identity for cheap aims to so this trend can be discouraged in future and our identity is not promoted in any indecent way because:

“Pakhtoonism is not for sale”.

Most of the SB were Punjabis and the ideology was sold to the nation by Pindi Boys/Punjabi boys for a free meal. Ms Wannabes! indian hindus claiming to be arab, turkish, and so on. Go sit on the potty s0n.

There is no need to insult Punjabis. I found his post to be fucking stupid as well.

I let him go lightly. I can take his bardari, his race, his identity... to places where he cant come back from.

Why do you want to insult someone that has no brain? It's like insulting a donkey.

pakhton identity isn't author's sole property.every other khan has equal claim and right to use it. he/she is just being butt hurt here.

Just because someone is a Khan does not mean they are Pashtun, though.

Pukhtoons are no less in insulting punjabis, just last month i saw a video on youtube of pak actress neelum who was visitng Dubai on some cricket match event , she was wearing some very fitted dress wide shoulders neck , showing off some part of her belly, now as there is a huge bachelor or labor population from Pakistan in dubai and majority of them are made up of pushtoons and they often visit such events , so they were standing behind stadium enclosure bars in the stadium, these ppl are the worst of tharkiest men who would tear apart a woman if they can lay their hands on them and in this inappropriate khulya neelum was walking in the stadium waving hand at them, those men were getting extremely excited looking at a woman dressed so horribly, someof the men were clearly pathan guys. A pathan viewer could not take this he posted a very racist message on youtube and said, yeh admi pathan nahi balkay punjabi hain jo aisi harkatain kar rahay hain , yeh punjabi hi aisay hotay hai,baigairat and tharki.
that was a terrible flamebait that led to many ppl ending up fighting with each other. Lmao i was so laughing at ghairatmand pathan , btw he totally forgot even the actress neelum is a pathan

Nah nothing stupid about the post.
This one is no Punjabo or any other ethnicty but the one i mentioned.

It is kinda of embarrassing and no surprising given the false sense of superiority which has been the case of self-righteous with Pathans, Arabs and anyone with the false sense of superiority.

Given the history of Pathans involvement in the drug networks from Afghanistan that has expanded all the way to Pakistan along with the network of prostitution on the large scale, and safe haven for terrorist-outfit aka TTP in No-Go-Area in most portions of Karachi before the military operation has been launched officially.

Even in Iran/Turkey and the rest of Europe, Pathans from Afghanistan are involved in drug network while undermines the image of Pakistan since it is through Pakistan they migrate to the rest of the world to bring bad name on Pakistan.

Do we really need to mention the special love that Afghan pathans have for the kids in Afghanistan? Pathans and Arabs are on the new level of disturbing mindset. No wonder why Afghanistan and Middle East are doomed.

No offense to Pathans but this is not racist tiring rant. This is reality check to serve reminder for those who are drunk with the false sense of superiority despite the last sermon which Prophet Muhammad (PBUH) has clarified and emphasized on the manner of the people and the beauty of the people that is judged by the piety and deeds alone - not by color or race. And that was explained to Arabs which at the time was drunk with delusional of superiority and i feel that applies to Pathans and anyone with the false sense of superiority.

No no no...
How dare you mention these "ground realities" ..
You musst be Phaainjabii...Hiira mandi kii paidawaar

Well thats the response you get when showing them the mirror so that they correct themselves instead of blaming the rest of the world for their troubles.

 

[Finer]

But Pukhtoons are the most marketed commodity. You can buy a suicide bomber from FATA in 10 Lakh Rupees.

It is disturbing alright which explains why terrorism plagued the entire Pakistan. Thankfully, General Raheel came at the right time hence the much needed military operation which eradicated majority portion of terrorism lately.

But it is not over yet since India can get them for free from Afghanistan given Afghanistan's blind hatred for Pakistan. So Pakistan job is not done yet. Need to cleanse Afghanistan to eradicate terrorism as well.

Rise above hate.
