"Interesting: "We are not #Afghans, we are #Khorasanis"—slogans chanted by non-Afghans who fled Afghanistan to escape Taliban repression and who definitely do not want to be identified with the tribalistic identity of the current Afghan construct."
Good luck explaining that to redneck American. Either you people grow some balls and liberate Khorasan or keep crying.

I hope and pray, they not deported to Pakistan to then be delivered to Afghanistan.
I hope the US delivers them direct to Kabul Airport via C-130s or even parachutes them.

They'll need to fight for their freedom, Taliban are not going to give it them.

I am sure India will open their doors for the Afghan's, after all there is no stronger bond between idol worshipers and idol destroyers. Bet the Afghans who are often portrayed as savages in Bollywood movie, and the Indian Lund Bhakts who show their savagery in Gujraat will find a common ground.

India has made a horrendous decision to support the Taliban. It will come to haunt them very badly.

Afghanistan’s Food Prices Rise by 2.3% in November, Statistics Authority Says
Afghanistan’s National Statistics and Information Authority (NSIA) has announced that food prices increased by 2.3 percent in the month of Aqrab (November) this year.
According to the NSIA, the prices of fruits rose by 10.3 percent, vegetables by 2.1 percent, meat by 1.6 percent, and grains by 1.3 percent during the same period.
The recent closure of key border crossings with Pakistan, Afghanistan’s primary trade route has also contributed to the rise in prices. Restrictions on cross-border movement have disrupted the flow of goods, leading to reduced supply in local markets and putting additional upward pressure on food costs: TKD Correspondent

Taking in foreigners of dubious loyalty and vastly different beliefs is unwise at best — and, as we saw in Washington, DC, deadly at worst. We need to send them elsewhere.
I have a longtime friend — I’ll omit his name because he is somewhat politically prominent — who has been very involved in the extraction of Afghans who allegedly helped us from Afghanistan and resettlement of them in the United States. My friend already has a demanding job, but he has often worked through the night, forgoing sleep to help with this task.
I have several strong political disagreements with him, but I would never question his patriotism. He voluntarily served as a soldier in Afghanistan after overcoming great obstacles to be accepted into the military. But I would strongly question his political judgment and the judgment of anyone who thinks we should be settling Afghan refugees in America.
'The second the US military backed out, their men folded and refused to fight for what we gave them. We don’t owe them, they owe us.'
Unfortunately, a number of our former soldiers, no matter how sincere their beliefs, seem to sympathize more with people in a foreign country whom they believed, rightly or wrongly, to be allies rather than with the interests of the only country to which they owe their allegiance.
Joe Kent, an Afghanistan combat veteran and director of the National Counterterrorism Center, argued on social media for the deportation of all of our “Afghan allies.”
"Vetting a foreigner in a war zone to determine if he will fight a common enemy is vastly different than vetting a foreigner to see if he is suitable to live in our country,” Kent wrote.
As journalist Daniel Greenfield notes, the targeted attack on two National Guardsmen by an Afghan national in Washington, D.C., the day before Thanksgiving was not a one-off. It’s part of an extensive series of assaults by Afghans whom we have foolishly allowed to resettle in the United States.
And that gap is not just financial and legal, but also based on traditions and customs. Relationships that may feel like genuine friendship for a time usually come with future requests or pleas for assistance. Again, I don’t necessarily blame these people — I might do the same in their shoes — and of course genuine friendships in such situations are possible, but they are far rarer than idealists might wish them to be.
What applies in basically peaceful third-world countries applies a thousandfold in an impoverished, war-torn, and primitive country like Afghanistan. It is monstrously arrogant to think the American political class understands deeply the inner workings of these countries and the motivations of the people there, given that we spent almost $1 trillion to occupy Afghanistan, only to see all of our efforts collapse within a week after we removed our military as a threat of force.
Wade Miller, the executive director of Citizens for Renewing America and a U.S. Marine combat veteran, responded to the claim that resettling Afghans was the moral thing to do since they “fought alongside our own” soldiers, rightly calling it a “BS metric.” As he noted, “1. Many played both sides. 2. Many only did it to make money. 3. Many were plants. 4. Many had long-standing tribal grudges against the Taliban.”
And none of them necessarily has a long-term loyalty to America, which is the first step to assess before even beginning to consider a claim of residency.
All of this would be obvious to anyone who does not let suicidal empathy overwhelm good sense. But unfortunately, we have lost that common sense, even among many of our supposedly hardened fighting forces.
‘We don’t owe them’
Miller punctures the lie that we owe these Afghans for “doing America a favor,” pointing out that we did them a favor by expending American lives and treasure to help them govern themselves without the Taliban. But “the second the U.S. military backed out, their men folded and refused to fight for what we gave them. We don’t owe them, they owe us.”
This is a harsh assessment, but in the aggregate, it is not unfair.
Or consider what Mark Lucas, an Afghanistan veteran and founder of the Article III Project, has written: “Afghans were untrustworthy allies who sold their children to pedophiles, ritually raped little boys, and beat their women.” He notes that without male soldiers guarding them, countless local Afghans made clear that they would have raped the women who were attached to their detachment.

Unbridgeable inequalities
Having lived briefly in a third-world country and having traveled for many years in various countries of that description, I have quickly learned to be wary of “friendships.” It is not that people in these countries are inherently bad or incapable of genuine friendship in principle. It is that the gap between you (a well-off American) and them (a third-world citizen who, even if relatively affluent, is often at a huge disadvantage versus an American) is astronomical.And that gap is not just financial and legal, but also based on traditions and customs. Relationships that may feel like genuine friendship for a time usually come with future requests or pleas for assistance. Again, I don’t necessarily blame these people — I might do the same in their shoes — and of course genuine friendships in such situations are possible, but they are far rarer than idealists might wish them to be.

Wow. How the tables have turned. The same Afghans that used to fill venom against Pakistan are today told that they are owed nothing. Instead the Americans are reminding the Afghans how they are pedos that don't fit into American society.

I don't approve of us getting all happy with this kind of talk from the West. To them they don't see a difference. We are bunched together and whatever sentiment they start putting out about Afghans, it will apply on Pakistanis too.

Its remarkable the length white dudes will go to mask the crimes of their own bethren yet broad bush any non white ethnic group.
The men and women who stormed the US capitol, were they Afghans?
The guy that shot that stupid alt-right influencer and Trump supporter, was he a Afghan? The countless school massacre perpretators, are they Afghans too?
Fact is white people statistcally, are some of the most violent people on Earth.

Stupid redneck American still doesnt get it.
Not everyone in Afghanistan is afghan. Everyone in Pakistan is Pakistani. Find out afghan pashtuns in USA and deport them, or continue to bear more terrorism in coming days.
Afghan pashtuns basically sabotaged your nation building project by pretending to be anti-taliban. As if Taliban isnt another form of pashtunism.

The Europeans are no different. The truth is that even after occupying Afghanistan for two decades the Westerners really didn't understand much.
