Afghans are NOT PERSIANS/ Iranians

[PersianCyrus]

what are you speaking honk?! Afghans and Tajiks are persian/iranian like any other iranian. Long live all persian speaking countries: Afghanistan, Iran, and Tajikistan!

[gypsy5724]

they arent necessarily PERSIAN but may be of IRANIAN origin. However, today, when refering to someone as "Iranian", it is meant as the person that comes from the country of IRAN.

[Gewaldro]

that's why we have the word "iranic" to describe the people of aryan iranian descent!

[sspersian]
