As for the rest of the interview I enjoyed listening to it. Mark has been through a lot, thank you both very much!
Ghani was not enough a bastard ? With all due respect Mr Urban, you don’t know him at all!!!! I He was a micromanager par-excellence.: from appointing acting minister throughout his presidency, to making his officials sign a resignation letter prior to taking office , to appointing nearly all relevant officials himself, to replacing all anti-Taliban forces with his loyalists, he was and still is a cult fight with nearly full control of the country. That was the transition went according to plan and the West gets blamed for it . Also the radio commentators between Massoud and Hekmatyar was about the first, pleading the latter not to enter Kabul and promising he would do the same in order to spare the city from urban warfare
Mark, Afghanistan is starving due to Durand Line.
Thankyou Soviets for building roads, bridges, schools and hospitals for Afghans.
Bristow, Afghanistan is starving due to Durand Line.
The western centric viewpoint of this channel really irks me. These are the people who killed, raped and massacred Afghans for 20 years.

So basically he's written a book to make money to tell us what he should have known, the first day he arrived in Kabul.
Afghanistan's potential lies in its diversity. Every minority and ethnicity posess great qualities and cultures, the Taliban should capitulate on that and let the country prosper. Also, its crucial that they see the hypocrisy of the Saudi mullas whom they seek religious guidance from. women are half the population and can not be left illiterate, a educated mother will bring up strong sons.
Hosts has clear hatred towards pashtuns we never get a fair voice in the media constantly trying to make us look evil
Interesting conversation, thanks to Dr. Barfield. The host's preoccupation with dividing Afghanistan is a bit weird for 2024. You and what army? I think it emanates from his own personal identity issues and his anti-Pashtun sentiments. He seems to think that if only a Hazara could rule Afghanistan we'd have Switzerland on the Kabul River. This is a fantasy and a demonstration of the very ethnic chauvinism that he wants to pin on the Pashtuns. Otherwise, I really enjoyed the talk. Thumbs up!
If Afghans hate a ruler, they resist. If Afghans love a ruler, they obey him.
Afghanistan is starving due to Durand Line.
Tobias, ask MI6 why they trained Jihadists in Scotland?
Quetta is starving because daughters of Sindh and Punjab are not being sold in bazars of Quetta.
Abdali robbed 700 million rs (70 crores) from Lahore and Delhi in 18th century.
Life has always been tough for women in Afghanistan.
Thousand lanat upon Ahmed Shah Masood.
Do not feel shame as Afghanistan spread homosexuality in South Asia. Afghanistan is a pioneer.
Wendy, ask MI6 why they trained Afghan Jihadists in Scotland?
Sima Samar, Soviets built roads, bridges, hospitals and schools for Afghans including Helmand.
Afghan Jihadists were trained by MI6 in Scotland.
Najibullah was the true patriot.
Sima Samar, PDPA only arrested those who committed crimes.
Taliban promote Pashtun supremacy over Khorasan.
Sima Samar, Soviets modetnized Afghanistan.
Jet fuel cannot melt steel.
What a great Pod cast.
Soviets built schools, hospitals, roads and bridges for Afghans.
Mir, Soviets committed no crimes, NATO committed crimes.
Taliban are Pashtun nationalists.
Afghanistan is colonizing Khorasan.
Sima Samar supported Mujahileen and has never apologized for it.
Heather, send your son to liberate Afghanistan.
This mongol is trying to lure the west to intervene but it won't work Afghanistan now has good relations with China Iran and many other countries even India trades with Afghanistan
If you minorities are persecuted in Afghanistan why don't you live in Tajikistan Uzbekistan or Iran the amount of lives pashtuns have given to Afghanistan is enough we not gonna let you corrupt minorities take over our country
Whilst I disagree with the Taliban but did the ethnic minorities ever stood by the pashtuns during the war on terror .that's a pashtuns mans country nobody can do anything about it world is changing the west is not the best anymore
What is Britain's obsession with Afghanistan i wonder
The west armed the ethnic minorities of Afghanistan with the most expensive arms only to run away fighting the pashtuns
Looks his angol saxon is falling apart sounds like an act of desperation
The ethnic minority always talk about Afghanistan .iran does not claim any Afghan land does not have border issue so what are these minorities on about Tajikistan wont acept them .there is a water dispute but Afghanistan and iran seem to have i think for sorted it out
Hazaras are not Afghan we are fighting Islamic state just to protect these ungrateful people go back to Mongolia
Well for all the talk of persians unity iran is expelling all Persian afghans back to Afghanistan
He biased comments will never break up Afghanistan
Pashtuns are paying a price to protect these hazaras from islamic state and this is how they respond
Paying a price ?? If you take power , protection becomes your responsibility. I am pashtoon too but admit that we have a fake pride. I really don't see where the price lies, does it lie in oppression of women and backwardness ??
This guy is full of bs
This guy is bityer that all his years of reaching about Afghanistan was all woring he noldy said taliban will never come back to powe he all so said if they do there will be a huge civil war that wont end he was wring every time now he thinks he can splut Afghanistan up
I don’t understand what are you guys talking about, you guys are chatting rubbish , if there was no social media we’d have believed you , a big thanks to the social media , who show us the truth people are very happy they really enjoy living in peace after nearly 5 decades of war specially the last 20 years on which Afghanistan was ruled by the most corrupt people backed by the US , now majority of the people thanking Allah swt for being in peace and Afghanistan is prospering day by day we are seeing it in social media . What a bunch of liars.
