  • What has happened to the Man Mir ???

  • @macbrack04 You can see Mir's journey into adulthood in the newest documentary The Boy Mir; 10 years in Afghanistan following the cheeky, enthusiastic Mir from a childish eight to a fully grown eighteen-year-old.

  • enemies of afghanistan are the nations that divide, pashtuns from each other, pashtun from hazaras, tajiks and uzbeks,

    mullah omar was against destroying the buddas, agaist the ban of t.v. and playing kites and music, and against killing the hazaras,

    it was the arabs and bin laden who influenced this bedouin shit,

    when the taliban when to bamiyan to kill the hazaras, it wasnt because they were hazara, its because the arabs said they were shias and forced

    unity+peace=loy afghanistan

  • I managed to borrow the DVD off a friend. It's a brilliant documentary and Mir is so charismatic. I think it's going on my christmas list and i'm looking forward to the sequel The Boy Mir.

see all

  • 1:28 take a good look at who your killing in this war.

    compare him to the little spitefull zionist kids you get in israel.

    wish i could go there and teach these kids but thanks to western countries only ever bringing disastar to their lands i wouldnt be suprised if i got shot.

  • AAAA

  • They distroyed to hide the truth. They didnt want us to see such beautiful work made by humans who paid respects to the buddha. Why esle would anyone destroy things? I know ...they dont have a history grand enough like the one they destroyed. All that piled up bombs and dynamite, not much happening in life take it out with a statue of buddha they must be bored.

  • Birar yak war fakir kaneen ki moo che kar kad rae astay, kadad taarkee ku.

    Chand cheez ma maykuam ki da pash azz shumoo balum.

    1. Moo Azra murdoom da dunya nufoos moo 6.5 to 8 million asta, wa Mangol nufoos shi ta hanooz ra 10 million asta.

    Ye chutar astay ki HAZARA murdoom agar az awoolat azoo asta ku,

    ee kadar kam faraq chutar moomkin asta.

    Ba ray khuda kad nam ku Changazi, Mongol wa turk lakay na kaaneen.

  • hazaras were once buddhists, it is karmas law they have now. only way is turn to lord buddha for forgiveness and peace.

  • @smokeruffle

    Hazara is a race and kinship different from others. Mir represents Hazaras in general and his clan in particular light skin and facial complexion,

    By the way, do all europeans (or a particular european nation such as france or germany) have green eyes or light skins or simmilar facial texture?

  • @smokeruffle

    those korean/mongolian thing is the streotype that others have built around the Hazaragan. Hazaras are a totally different race from others

    Mir is a typical Hazara especially his light pale skin and facial complexion,

    By the way do all Europeans have green eyes and light skins?

  • the people who originally inhabited afghanistan hindus,buddhists,zoroastrians,­jews must be rolling in thr graves today to c what thr country has become
