My grandfather was born and raised in Qandhar, Afghanistan. My father was born in Qandhar, Afghanistan, my mother is from Datta Khel and I was born in Pekhaware. I have both Afghan and Pakistan blood in me. I visit Afghanistan nearly every year, sometimes twice a year. As a Pukhtun, I am what my ancestors have taught me. And they taught me that Islam is my foundation and Muslims are my brothers. Most of all, both Afghan (Pukhtuns) and Pakistan is my homeland.
I have seen with my very own eyes, heard with my very own ears and felt with my very own fists the hatred that Farsiwan/Hazari/Uzbeki (most of them) have for Pukhtuns. So don't tell me what Pukhtuns feel, because I know what we feel and I know who has been fighting for Afghanistan and who has sold out to the foreigners.
My parents taught me to respect the soil Allah has raised me from. I respect it and honor it with my blood, with my devotion to Allah and with every ounce of power Allah has granted me. This is what I have taught my children and they will teach their's.
As your fellow countryman, as your fellow Muslim, I would like to make you aware that there are a plethora of Farsiwan/Hazari/Uzbeki who speak Pukhto fluently and have sought to draw a wedge between Pukhtuns of Pakistan and Afghanistan. Mostly because today there are more Pukhtuns in Afghanistan, than there are in Pakistan. And crucially because they (Farsiwani/Hazari/Uzbeki) have always sold-out to foreigners against us Pukhtuns. They did it with the Soviets and they are doing it now with the Americans. Why? Because they despise us, because we do not give up Islam and our traditions and most of all we do not western culture. They have sided with foreign invaders in the effort to defeat us, to erase us, to ensure our majority in Afghanistan is eliminated.
But instead of us being eliminated with the Soviet invasion, the opposite happened. Pakistan stood with Afghan Pukhtuns. Supported us, defended us and gave us a home. This is one of the reasons why the Farsiwani/Hazari/Uzbeki Afghanis hate Pakistan so much. Because Pukhtuns have presence on both sides of the border. To rub salt in their (Farsiwani/Hazari/Uzbeki) wounds, Pakistan even gave it's province the name, "Pukhtunkhwa." That is a huge honor for Pukhtuns and which is why most Pukhtuns love Pakistan. The only reason why there has been any indifference from Afghan Pukhtuns in the recent years, is when Pakistan allowed American forces to establish base of operations, logistics to run through the country.
So please do not tell lecture me about what Afghan, real Afghans are Pukhtuns, think about Pakistan. I am a living example of what Pukhtuns are to Pakistan and what Pakistan means to Afghan Pukhtuns.
Remember, the devil shall always find a way (deception) to drive a wedge between Muslims. As the devil has used many a times tricks whether it be through wahhabi'ists, farsiwani, uzbeki or hazari. And even though I have seen the hatred in their eyes for me, Islam has taught me to make the distinction even within the enemy. For there are also true Muslims among them, even if they stand as a minority.
Don't paint everyone with the same brush, because you will end up like those fascist bjp-hindus or those traitor farsiwani/hazari/uzbeki afghanis.
There are plenty of farsiwani/hazari/uzbeki afghanis who have fluent Pukhto dialect and have been masquerading around as Afghan Pukhtuns in Pakistan for decades. I know this because I can detect their accent. Some are so good, you can't tell the difference. So don't think you know what you know, to be fact. You don't!
