Wrong Approach towards Afghan Conflict

  Wrong Approach towards Afghan Conflict   Why is it believed that there cannot be peace in Afghanistan if US aka occupying forces withdraw? Introduction and background: There are a number of reasons for this but one of the most worrying of them is the approach of the current Afghan Govt. towards addressing the infighting. Since the inception of the Afghan Civil War in 1973. From 1973 to 1979 people of Afghanistan saw a secular and procommunist Govt. Since Islam was practiced as a state religion and true Islamic saints have lived in Afghanistan, the roots of fundamental Islam and the people adhering to it hoped for an Islamic Govt. With the advent of pro Communist leader, Babrak Kamal, Afghanistan started to receive changes to its constitution. This angered the practicing Muslims and other local elders who could not tolerate Communism.   The conflict of ideas and the imported ideology caused the infighting between the then Govt. and Muslims.

  Covid-19 Vaccines: You need to read it before you run from it. Before you dismiss Covid-19 vaccination and find a way to escape it, know that this is not new for you.

                        OFF CULTURAL INVASION BACKGROUND: Conventionally, mightier powers used to subdue the weaker countries/lands by might and they had to replace their language, culture and values with the ones they brought with them. If we read history of English language, chiefly pre Renaissance medieval history, we come across so many instances wherein the English while colonizing a tribe, a village or community etc., would first of all teach them their language. It is a sad fact that through the written and verbal language changes, the entire fiber of a community changes. The affectees do not remember who their forefathers were and what language they spoke. Even they forget to recall what religious group their forefathers belonged to and followed up. All the efforts and struggle used to be issued by the Church. Once English would succeed in replacing their language, it’d become very easy for clergymen and colonizing ...
