Thanks for sharing your story Abbas, it is so important for people to hear and let me say that as an Australian I am ashamed the way asylum seekers are treated in this country. I hope it gets better soon... X
as an Afghan i proud of you !
Thanks for the warm welcome of host people. This is the very usual story of each and every Afghan person and tribe, not only of Hazara, but also the story of Pashtoons, Tajiks, Uzbiks and every other tribe dwells in Afghanistan. May Allah brings an end to this misery and war. Ameen. I am pashtoon and I am proud of Hazara's if they are proud of Afghanistan. I am proud of Abbas Nazari as an Afghan who shared a glimpse of Afghanistan with outsiders.
What an amazing young man. Australia. ....your loss... And NZ's gain
Im a Pashtun and I love you my brother. Im sorry what you went through. Our people are recuperating from 37 years of war and unfortunately that is all they know. Also they Hazaras took their revenge many times as well. FORGIVE US FOR OUR TRESPASSES ZND MAY ALLAH FORGIVE ON DAY OF JUDGEMENT
The concept of Revenge is very prominent in the Pashtun tribal culture. You must know this.
Your profile is Massoud, you Name is Sadat, you call yourself Pashtun and support Hazaras. It just reminds me of mixed salad
Currently reading Nazari's book "After the Tampa" with more detail on his journey than the TEDx talk. Highly recommend it.
I proud you my dear brother. Hello from Turkey for you🇦🇫🇦🇫🇦🇫
Abbas Nazari, you are an amazing speaker and and we are proud to have someone as brave as you who is not afraid to stand in the crowd and speak up about his country and what it means to be an afghan. You are an achiever and have a bright and successful future ahead of you. Keep it up!
Thank you for being strong and choosing to be positive and grateful from your experience. Truly motivational 🌻
Proud to be afghan
I just finished After the Tampa by this inspirational young man. Words cannot express the emotions and gratitude for sharing your family’s courageous journey and life. Powerful
Just finished your book. Very good, and your insights and opinions on global challenges were fair and measured.
This is truly inspiring Abbas.
MY God apart from the heartfelt real life story, that picture...that immaculate picture of the fathers land blooming with grapes and pomegranate trees and more... from owning land and a living, to the middle of the sea and a refugee....
Very inspiring story and i had my classmate in the same boat and luckily he got asylum in NZ as well . I did the same journey to come to Norway. I hope the situation will change in Afghanistan and people should live in peace .:) I miss Jaghori.
Are you still In Norway? This story caught my attention tonight in NZ because Abbas' story was on TV and I've a Norwegian friend. Praying for those stuck in Kabul now.
Proud of you
Hey i am from jaghuri too :)
What an amazing speech Abbas!
It's kinda a funny to think that we're both from Jaghori(Afghanistan), almost same age and left Jaghori at the same period of time but to two different continents.
Well I cannot remember much of Afghanistan and never been there since unfortunately (too risky).
I really wish Afghanistan will become more peaceful in the future even though I do not expect it to be honest.
btw. which village/area do you come from? i'm just curious :)
No word to say 😢😢😢😢

Hazara Turk Uzbek Noouristani Pushtoon tajiks we are one folk who need to get a long to stop the divisions created by pigs with 3 invasions.
chur brutha Abbas! Mauri ora, D
He moved to bacome safe
Exactly! And he did a good thing
Do you even speech?
He's an ethnic hazara, unfortunately they are a very despised group in afghanistan because they are supposedly descendants of GHenghis khan's soldiers when the mongols invaded afghanistan, pillaged and destroyed everything! They truly are treated terribly and are disadvantaged...
***** Pushtun gave land to whom? to hazara ?!!! its amazing, could you please list me the resource that you used for your words.
***** I think you are a little confused, Pashtuns didn't give Hazaras anything, Hazaras have been living on those lands way before Afghanistan even existed, Hazaras have a mysterious origin. Its a misconception that Hazaras are descendants of Chengiz khan, yes they look very similar to Mongols however they've been there way before Chengiz began his empire, probably way before Chengiz even existed. When Chengiz began invading Mongols mixed with the Hazaras. Sadly Hazara's have been under oppression, suppression and persecution through out history and are continuing to be so. That is why the history and origins of Hazaras are very blurry and unknown because those persecuting them have wiped out all evidence in the same efforts of trying to wipe out the people as well.
***** and to add to your comment, many places like kandahar were hazara lands, when the brutal shahs and leaders of afghanistan persecuted the hazaras, they took their lands and handed it to the pashtuns. Basically the hazaras have been forced into central afghanistan (hazarajat) with the pashtuns pushing from the south and tajiks from the north. Hazaras are native to many parts of afghanistan which is now populated by either tajiks or pashtuns.
***** ahh, you guys are israeli lol, lost tribe of israel? hazaras have always been natives of that land, this is proven by the once worlds tallest bhudda statue in bamiyan which were blown up by non other than talibs who we all know which tribe they consist of.
***** All i was trying to get through was that pusthuns never gave anything to hazaras. but what has happened is a lot of things have been TAKEN from hazaras. Also to add HINDUISM AND BHUDISM are different religions. The reason i bought Bhud e Bamiyan up was the fact that, That in itself proves that hazaras were there long before any mongol invasion, the ancestors of hazara people were at one stage bhuddists a very long time ago. Which is proven by bhudda statue. The fact that u cant distinguish between Bhudism and Hinduism really shows how much research youve done.
thats wrong. Hazaras have been in power until present. and the oppressions that Hazaras have done in Afghanistan are unforgettable, everybody know this in Afghanistan. please do not deceive foreigners.
Sammy Samim... the time for blaming now is past. The important thing is to forgive and to move on! Afghanistan is a beautiful country that deserves to live in peace and harmony with all ethnicities and religious sects!
