Pashtuns are masters at power analysis. We don't understand it!
A number of Pashtun brothers in Australia wrote to their senators and urged them to be careful in the process of importing new immigrants from Afghanistan, especially noting that Fatimid Army fighters could enter the country under the guise of Hazaras. Meanwhile, the Hazaras of Australia staged an eloquent shriek like the day of Ashura on their Facebook pages in Persian and for audiences in Afghanistan.
From the whole story, a few notes for this audience:
1. The Pashtun brothers took a deliberate step using the methods of the country they live in. They have studied, explored the ways of influence, they follow the path that is effective in that society. Every person and every ethnic group must work in accordance with the laws and practices of the countries where they live if they are motivated to serve their people. There is nothing wrong.
2. The “Fatimid army” is a clear slander against the Hazara community, which has no external presence in Afghanistan. But not a single Hazara in politics and science has been able to remove this accusation from us. This is our fault. Personally, I wish there was such an army that the Hazaras would not be sacrificed, everywhere helplessly, like a sheep.
3. Hazaras have the largest immigrant community in Australia. Are there not professors and scientists in the second and third generation among this large society who can answer to them (Pashtuns) with their own style, reasoning, and methods? Many years have passed since the resettlement of the Hazaras in Australia, and the second and third generations of the Hazaras reached their peak. Are there not university professors, lawyers, experts, writers, and politicians among them? If not, then this is really trouble, if there is and does not have feelings, then the trouble is even worse!
4. The Pashtuns have a unique political alliance. If we are talking about political interests, then no disagreements prevent them from uniting. Many years later, an army plane crashed in Behsud and it was not clear if Alipur or someone else or another group was involved, but the voice of revenge was raised from both the Taliban and non-Taliban. Today, when the Taliban is in power, even the most intelligent Pashtuns are silent and do not think that something important has happened. One brother left and another brother came. How much can we learn from this union? Nothing! If I were anyone, I would learn Pashto and "Pashtunwali" (Pashtun code) well so that the codes and secrets of this union are understood.
5. Whether we like it or not, the Pashtuns have written and planted their dominant narrative in Afghanistan and abroad. Today the lies of Khalilzad, Ashraf Ghani... annul all our truth, even the massacres, and victims. Why did the Pashtuns achieve such power? It has nothing to do with the number of them and our population. However, the main issue is that they have well mastered the relationship and the language of power and interaction. They understand what the world likes and what criteria change important decisions. For example, Ashraf Ghani, Khalilzad, and others, before writing a rescue plan for the Pashtun society on Facebook, entered world-famous universities such as Chicago, Columbia, received doctoral degrees, married foreign women and swore allegiance to foreigners, and then come to power in Afghanistan, and will steer as they want.
Now you tell me: if I were the president of the United States, would I listen to a person with a doctorate from the University of Chicago, who speaks English better than me and knows the mood of Washington better than I do, or those who recite ravza (prayers) in Persian, even taken from the Iranian translation of Javad Sultani, Ali Amiri ... and Reza Sarwar?
The path of politics is not shot from Karbala, Facebook and Barcha, but through universities, studying in English, and getting to know the language and the main corridors of power. Brothers and sisters and Hazara immigrants must feel the weight of this responsibility on their shoulders and pass it on to the next generation.
