Khan Abdul Wali Khan: His Fathers Shadow?

Bibi,
u say,
``Listen Mr, you better stop ordering some one to stop their freedom of expression``
If I recall, You went tooth n nail against hamzaad when he expressed his ``freedom of expression`` on that Eid/Abraham piece..

Guess if the Khans were from Hazara, Then this bullshit venom u r spitting wouldnt have been here..

And oh yes, long live the Jadoons, the Abbassis and the Khassis who never sat in their drawing rooms scheming against Pakistan but minted money whenever they got a chance.

N to sum it all up, all you said reminded me of a popular Punjabi/Hazara proverb
``Jithon di khoti, uthay aan khalotee``

HP, Thanks for this piece!

Zeena,
You claim that you know the psyche of the people of NWFP & at the same time you are brandishing these larger than life figures traitors??
Stop yapping woman. `nuff said.

For the interested folks, check out ``The Pathan unarmed`` by Mukulika Banerjee, about the Khudai Khidmatgar movement founded by Baachaa Khan. It attempts to answer how the notoriously violent Pukhtoons were converted to an ethic of non-violence.
