Even Lost

Syed Ahmad Shah was an Afghan politician. He was the Minister of Communications in the cabinet of President Ashraf Ghani from 2018 to 2020. There were differences with the President. He resigned from the ministry in December 2020 and shifted to Germany with his family. Zig “lives in the city” is a small flat “the family is living with hardship” Syed Ahmed Shah works pizza delivery on a bicycle “he gets two euros per delivery” He earns 30 euros after a long day’s work. Gap Zug’s Daily People’s newspaper published pictures of his pizza delivery a few days ago and also gave an interview. Syed Ahmad Shah said that the situation in Afghanistan is deteriorating.

If we were a living nation, we would surely think, what is the use of this sacrifice for us? We got nothing but taunts like financial sanctions, 429 drone strikes, do more, trade quotes, and “these guys can sell mom for money”? “We are under the jaws of the IMF today and we are being crushed in the mill of the FATF. It would have been great if we had won the hearts of the United States and Afghanistan even after these sacrifices. It is a sign of “love” that Biden did not call our Prime Minister even during the Afghan evacuation when the Afghans called India and RAW and brought them to our western borders and India spent 15 years in FATA and Balochistan. “Operation continues, today Afghans also hate us” The bitterness of the past is also present in the hearts of the Taliban They are also angry with us for dying in obedience to God. So what have we got? If we are a living nation, then we have to analyze both the terrible mistakes of 1980 and 2001 and admit that we have made two turning points in history. But all their decisions were in the hands of a few people and these people had sold the nation for their personal power both times and the nation was no longer a nation after that. If women, television, banks, Hekmatyar, Abdullah Abdullah, and Hamid Karzai are making room for reform, and if they are adapting themselves to the times, then why can’t we? Why don’t we just sit down and analyze the mistrust between the institutions? Why don’t we bring both the government and the opposition together and fix the flaws of the system at once? Shouldn’t there be a rule of law in the country? Is the electoral system a failure? Shouldn’t it be proof and credible? Shouldn’t there be qualified people in key positions? Shouldn’t economic policies be fixed for thirty to forty years? Shouldn’t the recruitment and promotion system be on merit? Shouldn’t there be stability in policies? Should we and shouldn’t we make this decision all at once? We will not interfere in any country from today and will fix our relations with all our neighbors. What is the harm in this? We have been eating chickpeas and corn for 74 years, but we are still not becoming human. Why? Why? Let’s not become human beings. Maybe we are not destined to become human beings, but can’t we become donkeys too? Are we worse than animals? Shouldn’t economic policies be fixed for 30–50 years? Shouldn’t the recruitment and promotion system be based on merit? Shouldn’t there be stability in policies and shouldn’t we decide once and for all? We will not interfere in any country and will fix our relations with all our neighbors. What is wrong with that? We have been eating chickpeas and corn for 74 years, but we are still not becoming human. Why? Why? Let’s not become human beings. Maybe we are not destined to become human beings, but can’t we become donkeys too? Are we worse than animals? Shouldn’t economic policies be fixed for 30–50 years? Shouldn’t the recruitment and promotion system be based on merit? Shouldn’t there be stability in policies and shouldn’t we decide once and for all? We will not interfere in any country and will fix our relations with all our neighbors. What is wrong with that? We have been eating chickpeas and corn for 74 years, but we are still not becoming human. Why? Why? Let’s not become human beings. Maybe we are not destined to become human beings, but can’t we become donkeys too? Are we worse than animals? And shouldn’t we decide once and for all that we will not interfere in any country from today and will fix our relations with all our neighbors? What’s wrong with that? We have been eating chickpeas and corn for 74 years, but we are still not becoming human. Why? Why? Let’s not become human beings. Maybe we are not destined to become human beings, but can’t we become donkeys too? Are we worse than animals? And shouldn’t we decide once and for all that we will not interfere in any country from today and will fix our relations with all our neighbors? What’s wrong with that? We have been eating chickpeas and corn for 74 years, but we are still not becoming human. Why? Why? Let’s not become human beings. Maybe we are not destined to become human beings, but can’t we become donkeys too? Are we worse than animals
