Video #310 - Let me know your thoughts in the comments section 🙈
UNICEF NZ supported me to travel to Afghanistan. Read more about their good work here: donate.unicef.org.nz
This video is part of a United Nations and UNICEF fundraising project. UN-supported campaign.
Appreciate your support!
🔴 *DONATE TO SAVE CHILDREN'S LIVES IN AFGHANISTAN HERE:* donate.unicef.org.nz 🔴
Thank you for you support/donation. If you can't donate, sharing is also a very powerful way you can help these innocent children to eat.
Consider it done
now half of afghanistan is in europe, thanks merkel
Just donated. Thanks nick, keep up the great work! 😊
Have a look Eritrea for sure interesting country ‼
Tnq u to recording Afghanistan video.
Afghan people are becoming hospitality.
Can we recognize how awesome this translator is
Tyler Pratt absolutely drops from Farsi to Pashto abd back to others at the drop of a hat. Amazing.
How? I speak neither Dari nor Pashto.
I could of done better smh
No kidding. 10/10.
His Interpreter is the worse tho . 🤣
This translater needs recognition.
I’m an afghan-American. I can speak both Farsi and pashto (both very common languages in Afghanistan m)
And he is spot on.
Thank you for showing us the side no one cares so.
Is not that no one cares,but do you think no one else has its own issues?America has most homeless people than any other country.
Russia is poor as fuck,and all of eastern europe.
Balkan is still recovering from the war,and people work for 150 euros a month (that is IF they can find a job) Electric,water and heat bills cost more than half of that.
What do you want those people to do,with all of problems on their own?You want everyone to ignore their own,and help other countries while their people starve and freeze?
That guy in market said it is not rainy today so people are coming to market but he translated it is secure and peaceful so people are coming, but maybe "rainy" has a special meaning in afghanistan i live in Iran
@@jaelee2930 how, or better why, did u get offended by his comment? calm down
@@jaelee2930 at least people in the US and Russia dont have to worry about not coming home, at least they dont see dead people on this streets, at least they dont have to be terrified walking through streets incase a bomb fell onto them. US is more safer than afghanistan. Plus he was talling about the translator gaining recognition not the country. Also many people have such negative opinions on afghanistan because of the media showing the bad sides of Afg. The youtuber is just showing the good sides and showing that the country is much more than the shit you see on the news. Long Live Afghanistan!! ❤
Tam xx agreed entirely. I wish that we could move all of our(America’s) military funding in the east to helping people and society and not just war.
The war is so pointless and just needs to stop
As a father watching this, it made me realize how we take so much for granted. Being able to open a fridge and make a sandwhich if we're hungry. Grab a cold bottle of water if we're thirsty. Even complaining about having to wait in line at urgent care while on the other hand an Afghani mother has to find a way to get to a clinic miles/hours away. You got me to donate today brother.
you just realized that? damn.. you've been living in a bubble or something, lol..
@@jwst8 not the point…
@@jwst8 shaming someone for realizing something after you did doesn’t make you a better person.
@@morgan9650 not better, just more intelligent.. lol
@@jwst8 its very easy to forget the plight of others when they're alll the way in another country... were all comfy at home chillin in bed not thinking of the less fortunate and have or needs met. It definitely doesn't mean you are stronger pr smarter.
Almost $200k donated when the original goal was just $100k. You are doing amazing work making these videos . Much respect
The real award goes to the translator. The way he translated such long dialogues so clearly was incredible. Especially the women with their children.
More of an interpreter he is so skilled
Funny if he was just making it up. "I'm going to cut these guys heads off!" "He says he likes selling fruit!"
But big respect also to Indigo traveller for his editing skills with dubbing the translations
That doesn't mean safe
Do you know he talk with local with two different language Persian and Pushtu
that's amazing
As an Army veteran that deployed to Afghanistan, it broke my heart being there because the civilians are just trying to live their life.
I'm glad UNICEF is doing some good but I've heard they are one of the least effective charities.
Paul Larson the country is only a war zone because of you. Their people are being punished for standing up for themselves
@@Frogswilly 1. I'm sure Paul Larson is not the reason, he was just soldier.
2. While the US and other countries have meddled in the Middle East for quite some time now it is a very complicated region with no one cause for all this war.
Thank you for your service Paul god bless you.
@@jakobion9216 he had a choice we dont always have to fight for this corrupt government
That mother’s testimony is heartbreaking. Thank you for giving these people a voice. I’m sure for every person interviewed, there are thousands undergoing a similar experience.
That woman with the child was an incredible fighter and only 20 years old
I hope one day Afghanistan will find peace and all the children will have amazing life’s, I live in Australia and I take freedom and safety for granted.
Adam Mat thank you so much man.
Yes, we are all waiting for the day Afghanistan reaches peace. Thank you for watching, Adam.
USED TO BE LOVELY, THEN ISLAM GOT A FOOTHOLD, THATS HOW IT GOES, ONCE YOU GO FULL ISLAM, THERES NO GOING BACK.

WHO YOU TRYIN TO KID?
This is UN, globalist propaganda. Wake up!
Thank you, Nick. The older woman’s tears about who she’s lost over the decades broke my heart. Peace be with her. What I love seeing is that people are forging ahead, living life in spite of conflict, and helping one another. Human resilience is amazing. 👍🏼✌🏼💕
Well said Karin. Thanks for watching.
You should go live with her.
Phil Bemji lol
@@philbemji3337 cringe comment king
Imagine having to pay off your own deceased father's debt, a debt being so high, with a job that pays so poorly, that you'll probably spend the rest of your life trying to balance it.
That's why they create the crippling debt in the first place
Sadly this is part of the religion, you are required to pay any debt left by a family member. It has to be paid by the son, father, uncle, any male relative or a person can volunteer to pay it off. It can only be forgiven by the person taking the debt but I’m his case they don’t seem to forgive or lessen it.
Fuck that! I’d tell him where to go!!
I hope that kid runs away from that debt, that debt is evil and an unfavor burden. $2000 debt with an income of $3/day? Even if he spent all his money on the debt that's still damn near 3 years. Even 1/6 of that would take him 18 years. He needs to run away and find a better place.
Forgive my ignorance, but isn't it a an expected burden in most cultures to repay family debt? For example, you inherit a house from your deceased parents, and you are then required to repay any debt they own against the house? I understand that in western culture, there are options of bankruptcy, social support, and so on that are a privilege.....but tell me what I'm missing here?
Watching this now breaks my heart. Knowing that these women are having to hide just to survive after seeing them have hope is gut-wrenching.
No matter what u think of afghanistan for us Indian it is part of our heart love u afghani bro and respect to sisters from India 🇮🇳
Afghan Indian friendship zindabad 🇦🇫🇮🇳❤
Love india

“ I have seen misery all my life” “I hope no other mother has to cry anymore “ So broken-hearted
Yes, heavy words.
This is UN, globalist propaganda. Wake up!
Sam Adams , Why should UN have globalist propaganda?
@@communistinternationalco.6776 Are you kidding me? You do not understand that the UN is a globalist organization created by the Rockefellers and their New World Order conspirators? Wake up!: czcams.com/video/0wlNey9t7hQ/video.html
Sam Adams And the earth is flat, right?
Fair play to ya mate. Videos like this are very important. I'm from Northern Ireland, and anytime I hear about Afghanistan all I think about is "Taliban" or "war". You give the civilians of Afghanistan a face and a voice. Just normal, hard-working people who are trying to live their lives. 20-30 years ago all you would have heard about Northern Ireland was violence, war and death. Yet most people just wanted to live their lives normally and in peace no matter their race, religion or creed.
As a German/Afghan this breaks my heart and reminds me how happy I am that my father made it to Europe in the 70’s when the war began. Thank you Germany and thank you Dad that you gave us hope and a future. I hope that my afghan fellows will live in peace and without fear and suffer one day. I pray to god! Thank you for making this video!
You welcome buddy. As a German I'm really thankful for the good life we can live here in Germany.
And I know that this isn't obvious compared to Afghanistan and many other countries in the world.
Every human being should have the right to live in peace.
God bless you and all our brothers and sisters on this little spaceship called the earth. ❤️
My Mother is German and I didn’t run anywhere :) but anyways, what’s your point?
@@mehdilali83 Der ist nur traurig, weil er selbst nichts kann. Ich bin froh darüber, dass du hier leben kannst
Vielen Dank und alles gut :) Sowas muss man sich leider öfter anhören, obwohl es meine Heimat ist :) Aber nehme ich nicht so eng. LG
Canadian/Afghan and I feel the same as you. Ive never been there myself but the stories I hear and the whole culture of Afghanistan is really nice.
I want to see a day where people, like these, find a life that they do not worry about their families.
They deserve to be happy, fearless and prosperous.
Amen 🙏

Germoney is the answer
@@killakenny517 you're a sad thoughtless human being
Unfortunately that won’t be happening anytime soon now that the taliban are back in control. Thank you Joe Biden..
As Afghan where my life was difficult growing up things i've seen and experience will be with me forever. Now thankful for the life i have in America. I try my best to support my own family back home but sometime if i have side cash i donate to charities. You know how life it's in USA, worry about how to pay your next bill and how to find the way to pay your debts. Life is difficult challenges but you have to find the way to knock any obstacle on your way to succeed in future. Indigo Travel thank you for showing positive side of Afghanistan most of people don't know about. May god bless you and be safe. Long Live the Afghan people.

This is hard to watch after the recent happenings in Afghanistan. My heart is with the women in Afghanistan, I hope that the restrictions against you are ended again 😭
It is very sad.
And let's not even mention the thousands of Americans, many of whom were present for humanitarian efforts, are trapped there against their will by the evil Taliban.
@@diydunder3377 Let's not forget the warcrimes the US committed either lmao they were really bombing and shooting children (you can literally see proof of that on CZcams)
i pity the women in muslim countries,
they have no freedom,
they are not given choices in life,
in my country,
nobody will care if you
believe in God or not,
as long as you respect other people's
life perspectives
Not to offend you. But most women in Afghanistan absolutely reject the Western lifestyle.
They only want the war to end. Their children to be fed and their men to go to work.
Since Usa left, there is peace in this country. And although the West is blackmailing the Afghans at the moment they are happy with the new government and resilient.
And another point. Both men and women were severely oppressed by western forces and before that by Russian forces. So I wish the Afghans the best, that they return to their culture of Islam, honesty, hard work, trade and happiness.
3:33 That man is 21 years old?? Wow hard living will do that. Makes me feel grateful for what I do have. God bless these people.
Crazy how even if you’re the nicest, kindest type of person you can experience the hardest kind of life just because of the place you are born in; and vice versa.
like me
one thing I've noticed from watching this guy's videos is that people from the hardest, most difficult countries to live in day to day almost always seem to be some of the kindest, most friendly, approachable and helpful people. here in the UK, or other countries like it, you'd never see the kind of hospitality and welcoming that has been shown by the people he's met in Afghanistan, Lebanon, Yemen, Brazil, etc.
@@beedubree2550 stfu, yes you will. these are considered the most dangerous countries/cities in the world that he goes to, do you think he's actually walking into gang territories alone? NO. he's guided through safe areas by people who know the area already. Of course everyone is going to be nice and welcoming when a WHITE MAN walks through WITH A CAMERA through a SAFE, but poor neighborhood. If everyone was so nice, friendly, and peaceful, why is a CZcamsr riding around in a UNICEF car for protection?
That woman at 13:02 broke my heart man , and then made me feel happy for her kids relief: (i have not eaten anything today, but that doesn’t matter , i want to see my child loved as i love him ) ...what a beautiful young soul , you could see it in her eyes . she doesn’t even have 50 cents to eat or go back ....never take anything for granted everyone ,cherish what you have and always be humble and thankful..
Beautiful moment. Thank you.
Change your username to Hitler1939.
as a young afghan american thank you for this video, i’ve never been able to travel to the country my parents grew up in. it breaks my heart that afghanistan goes through constant war. i wish things were different. thank you for showing me my country.
You’re country is America
@@RazPerignon No, he’s Afghan. You’re lucky he even added on the American! If I were a first generation American from a minority family I wouldn’t claim the country either - when the vast majority of Americans stereotype minorities why would any of us want to forget our heritage, where we originate from? Where your parents from and your blood is from and your ancestral dna is from is where he is from. Unfortunately nothing you say can change that nor dictate how other people view themselves (sorry babes)
@@baileyr195 don’t snap your head at me, lady.
Hey Nick, do you still have contact with your translator/guide when you visited Afghanistan? I hope all is well with him in these dark times.
I thought the same! I hope he managed to get out of the country, the Taliban don't forgive
These people live such a hard life I can't imagine living in a war torn country and working so hard for so little I wish them the best.
Wishing will do nothing. Only the support of the fortunate can save them.

Well, they grow and create heroin. I have a hard time feeling bad in anyway for them. Similar to growing weed which I've done, and there's no excuse to be this way. We left, thank God finally, and they almost instantly lost half their country to Taliban. Most negotiating and giving it to them. Wanna feel bad for people? We have so many fucking homeless in my city in rural Colorado, they fight over who gets to panhandle there on that corner. Don't give me this sorta shit when your own people are fucked.

I keep coming back to this video. This has some of the best editing, cuts, music, dialog, content... food.. EVERYTHING. This is some of your best work EVER right here.. this will go down as one of your classic episodes.
Ive spent 21 months in Afghanistan and Ive been to about half of the provinces. This place intrigues me more than any other country Ive been to. It is the culture, the scenery but most importantly it is the people. They are so kind and hardy but live in such chaos. It is like peace and chaos, the wild west and extreme culture, heart ache and heartiness, new and old society all rolled into one extreme experience. That place is beautiful inside and out and would no doubt be a huge travel destination for when it becomes a safer place.

You can't help but see the distant depressed eyes of the souls of Afghanistan and it is like this is so many parts of the world how I wish humanity need not to suffer.
Anya I can assure u most of them r not depressed, they r terrified which is normal. 40 years as a war-pierced state, war is a routine of life - that's it.
WhiteGeared “they’re terrified which is normal” stfu 😒
@@sergeant64 thats why u spend billions on holidays going to Muslim countries like the Emirates, Jorda, Oman, Malaysia and etc. One thing more who is fighting who in the Muslim countries? It is always the west that jumps in and tells muslims how to live there lives. One last thing these countries had civilzations while the west people lived in trees and caves. Instead of pointing fingers it is better to educate yourself.
@@faisalabdullah6464 I totally agreed with you. Westerners should not have any advice for Muslims. If going to a Muslim country (if going) they should obey local traditions and learn languages, not eat pork or drink alcohol. If Muslims goes to western countries they should not scream *Kuffar.* Nor should they have sex with animals (Sunan Abu Dawud 38:4450 and "Tahrirolvasyleh", fourth edition). Or have sex with toddlers and underage (Quran in Sura 65:1).
sergeant64 Dude stop spewing false shit sex with toddlers and animals? Subhanallah
Makes you realise just how trivial our own 1st world problems really are, compared to the difficulties the afghans face on a daily basis. There is an Afghan family who live near me. Real nice, polite people.
Much love, glad to see UNICEF is helping. People become so skeptical on donation but when you see what can help others, well darn I really appreciate you showing us this brotha.
I am truly happy that I've discovered your channel man. I mean, for me personally, it's better than any documentary, it's like experiencing that travel myself, amazing. Keep it up man, never stop!

As a member of the US military I love watching videos like these. I have always loved every ethnicity and will continue to do so as I serve. I wish more people from my country had more love for all people and weren't so closed-minded. Also I wish people from other countries knew that many Americans do love them and their cultures. It's usually governments and leaders that get in the way of us helping each other.
Julian Overton truth spoken
Personally I dont like watching this video as it is literally a display of the effects of western invasion. Sorry but how can you say you serve a government and then condemn that government in the same comment?
Julian Overton thank you for service
@@lukethomas6482 Because some people like myself serve government positions to make changes for the good within the roles we play in them. Just like you can have a job you love, yet have a shitty boss you work for.

Watching this brought me to tears. I hardly ever cry, but this was very sad to watch.
Instead of just crying, I donated. I normally wouldn't broadcast that, but I feel that it's so important to act, and not just feel emotional.

Great Boojahideen Please explain what you mean with this ignorant statement.
Because america and others countries havent been warring and taking shit from those countries for years but ok. Clearly your an ignorant fool. Someone's religion doesnt make them evil. What that person does for the religion on an extremist level is that individuals choice. Just like here in usa we have extremeist Christians, nazis, we have extremeists on mainy levels and religions here but no thats fine. Your a sheep. Weve bombed the fuq out of those places for years. And yes theyve warred on eachother as well, however its there land not ours. They can kill eachother just like we in USA constantly war with words, acts of violence and hatred. We have leaders that talk and act like pubescent kids on twiiter. Go watch fox news buddy thats clearlt where you get your news. Smart people read history books not just from their country but other countries just like only idiots follow news thats in america. All know news agencies are entertainment agencies now, 70s and 80s let that decline start. Go ahead and come back with clever responses fighting with idiots is whats ruining the world
If we never sent troops to those countries or bombs or helped any small factions then id agree with you. Ive met great people from all religions.

"I'm happy living all around my country men".....
There's something you don't hear everyday in America
I don't think I've ever heard that from a fellow American, and I know I definitely never would if we were the ones living in those conditions and circumstances. Americans would probably be at each others throats fighting.
Dan. P. If those conditions came to the US people would segregate themselves naturally....by race. The “Our diversity is our strength” lie would be exposed for what it is.
@@mozartfx1 Good point. In some cases I think we already have segregated ourselves, either racially, politically, and/or by financial/social status. Or at least we're starting to do that. The world is in rough shape. I feel like we need more unbiased media outlets such as this to get the true story out there and not a story that is motivated by viewer ratings. I think if more people saw stories like this around the world it could help spread compassion and sympathy for those who are struggling.
You must live in a city then.
It’s because no ones actually happy with this diversity bullshit. People are happiest when they are with their own people

@@LunaticTheCat the reality with the war in Afghanistan is the Same thing we faced in Vietnam it is hard to tell who is the "enemy" cause everyone looks like civilians so its not the fault of the U.S Military the Taliban use tactics of Guerrilla Warfare that is in no way organized which makes combat and finding out who is the enemy complex the Russians Occupied Afghanistan to fight the Mujahideen which was funded by us due to the cold war , we dont kill to kill we have to find out who is the enemy and not cause casualties on our side your making it sound like we endorse war nobody who fights the wars want them the only people who think its a option are the ones who command and dont realize the realities of this war this is not like the World wars where it was organized i admire the Afghan citizens who endure the hardships day by day while many who do not deserve the attentions like celebrities and fools with fame while many have seen the wiked ways of this life we are not a fault we have a job to do and its life or death that's not something you have time to think about its either you save your.

Man it makes you appreciate the luck of the draw in life. Anyone of us on this form could have been born in a place like this. It’s crazy how we are looking from the outside in and not living on the inside hoping to be on the outside. That’s the way life goes. I can’t even imagine growing up in a place like this. I’m and I’m
Sure you all are very blessed to be say from the states, Europe, Australia, South America etc. this is life’s struggle. Like the guy with unity. Why can’t we live like that In advances countries. I guess the more you have the more you show off. Stay safe all.
I Don't Care thank you very much. I am a very deep person and I always just think about this stuff. Life is so crazy. So many people in this world and some just don’t have the luck of being born or raised the proper way. My wife is from Honduras and she grew up sleeping in a hammock. I’m only 33 and she is 27, so imagine that’s not that long ago she had to live like that. I live in the states and I love to travel and meet people because everyone has a story. Sorry for the typos in that video. I was just so at aww I had to write what was going on in my mind. I wish you nothing but love and happiness in your life and thank you for the comment. God bless you and your family.
I was thinking the same thing. Were super lucky.
Well said
@Buzz Killington lol I think about that alot. Especially when I want to squash a bug. I feel bad
south america and post soviet countries of europe are still third world countries. they arent struck by war like middle east but you cant group them like that
Thank you so much for making this video, donation sent to the link you provided. Love to Afghanistan💜
Wonderful and powerful work being done here, Nick. Respect and gratitude...
Being born in a place like America is really just like winning the lottery in a way...
Gamecore08 yeah
Not really, life in Europe is much better. America is not that safe, come to Sweden or Norway to experience safe countries.
God’s country
@@vaux_manvv7520 sweden is not safe either. There was a bomb that exploded in Stockholm this night
@@vaux_manvv7520 Portugal too, they're in the top 10 most peaceful countries in the world
I couldn’t imagine living like this wow. A lot of us take our life for granted. This is eye opening.
Wow! I am more than impressed and happy! I love videos like this! Thank you for making them! ❤️
Thanks Nick for encouraging everyone to donate to UNICEF.
Of course it would be even more important now than when you made this video.
Once again, Thank You
I'm a poor American but I have a house (decent) a car and I eat most days. How good we Americans have it. Even us poor folk.
Edit: Godbless all of you wherever in the world you are. I love you all and wish you the best. Praise God and may He bless you.
Yes, I grew up with very little; this includes without food from time to time. As an ex American Soldier I can tell you the struggle there is real, but many of the people are amazing. When I went there back in 2010-2011 it really allowed me to take a step back, and appreciate what I had/have.
same thing happening in turkey many young people just graduated from college
cant find job on his field so most of the young people turning towards
military or police
@Buzz Killington cause I'm poor af but still have alot compared to alot of people around the world. How is that hard to discern?
I am also poor but I am happy that I am living a decent life.. I am from India
@@sourish. same here my friend. God bless brother
Wish all the best for Afghanistan hope they can find peace and prosperity soon, much love from Iran ❤️

I recently found your channel and I have to say these videos have to be the most humbling experience one from the western world can watch. Thank you for bringing the reality of the world to CZcams. Your videos are so amazing and I have watched 15 already in 2 days
The translator is a legend
Need to show this video to the shiitty kids who get pissed off at their parents for not having the latest iphone. Things could be a whole lot worse.
jason petersen yes for sure, I’m a 13 year old boy and watching these videos has put things into perspective
I live in Afghanistan and iam pissed at not having I phone
This is the way the US treats all people of color, including its own citizens. I live in North Philly and conditions are roughly the same here as in Afghanistan. Not everyone is as privileged as you.
John W Not the US job to treat you to anything. Help yourself. Opportunities are abundant, unlike in Afghanistan..
@@JW-uy2on privledged as who ??? Obama, oprah, drake.... who exactly are you talking about? Dont use color as a crutch. There's a lot of down and out white people too. I get sick and tired of people blaming whitey because they have a shitty life. You get EXACTY out of life what you put in. I guess it's just easier to blame whitey for your failures....that way your not to blame
This is such a sad video but it’s wonderful how you portray it in such a positive light. God bless those people and those children. Hopefully the long enduring war they are suffering thru will end.
Thank you for watching and supporting. Your words mean a lot.
Indigo Traveller 🧳 You are very welcome. I subscribed to your channel a couple days ago when I found your videos. I live what you do. Keep it up brother.
@@IndigoTraveller Really hope you'll visit the breathtaking Bamiyan and Panjshir valleys!
@@amanda.collaud Lots of Australians, South Americans and Wild West Americans also live in deserts. The most populous Muslim nation Indonesia barely even has deserts. What's your point?
just came across your channel and youre very inspiring. thank you for doing this. one day i hope to travel the world to help those in need all while documenting it to spread awareness like you have. Its really sad to see all this needless suffering. I feel as it is my purpose to help people in need like this.
Awesome work man. When I was doyed there I met some really great people on those patrols. Really wish things will get better. So many are peaceful, friendly people who would split their last bit of food with you
Title: walking Afghan streets not safe
Video: “the energy here is peaceful and calm”
It is not safe. Stop being so naive. Yes you can go to Afghanistan 10 times and come out alive ,but do it enough times eventually your luck will run out. The more times you go the higher your chances of being kidnapped greatly increases. For an example just like those girls who went solo to Morocco and ended up being raped and decapitated by Islamic extremist. This is just scientific fact.
He stated multiple times in this series that everywhere he went, the vibe that the Afghans gave him is mostly positive. People willing to chat, warm welcome to a foreigner like him, and just the overall situation at the moment is peaceful. But anytime something bad can happen, and that's what he meant "not safe". Anytime a bomb or a gunfight can broke into the peaceful atmosphere.
@@adamzaidi1748 That is law of large numbers. In every attempt, the chance of expected possibility is increased.
VITTXRIO You’re refusing to see the reality here. This was a highly regulated trip, he didn’t just go walking down any street.
@@adamzaidi1748 is it because those girls put themselves in a dangerous situation because they were taught that Islamic extremists are peaceful by their own government and media? I think people with situational awareness and an education to the actual dangers probably fare much better than some liberal ideologues on a fools errand to bring peace to the jihad.
That poor country is drug invested and war torn. Hope those people find a better future.
welcome to third world
From our beautiful United States destroying Arab country’s
Afghanistan is the graveyard of empires
Lmfao, you say that as if there arent drugs ALL over the US, & as if the cops aren't borderline waging a one sided funded war agaisn't its own citizens. Literally like not even 4 years ago, a peaceful protest agaisn't a pipeline being illegally installed was met with police swat tanks essentially. What dillusion do you live? xD The only time the US doesnt look like a third world country, is if your parents own a business*
I'm afraid these countries will never find peace and stability.
Sad these people will soon fall under taliban control in the coming months at the speed the taliban is advancing right now. Literally fall of Saigon part 2
may it be so, for real, idgaf. Every country needs to look after itself in the end. Why the hell did we even go there? USA? Germany? France? Netherlands? And many others?
The war was wrong, the whole intervention was wrong, it cost us all a lot of money, it was under a false premise of the USA which cost them 2 Trillion dollar. And now we have to admit that we achieved absolutely nothing while knowing that the taliban will take back the whole country in 3 months.
May they be under taliban control, they either will be able to fight against this terror regime at some point or they will end up as a islamic state (like they already had been the whole time before). May it be so.
@@diving_element3126 don RUNSFELD was missing $1.7 trillion at CIA.
@@Gubers Yeah sure, false premises. Even if they were genuine premises, still has been fucking desaster.
@@Gubers I think he genuinely doesn't care. So, what can you really say to him?
This is such a sad reality for them. I know we can’t keep our soldiers there forever but one would have hoped for a better outcome. These people deserve a better life than living under the Taliban they are ruthless
It's so sad how war can mess people's lives,it's good to see a documentary on the people's lives, optimism within the calamities they face,much respect for the strong Afghan community and those supporting the positive initiatives like the UNICEF and this amazing documentary.
Well presented by the guy who is translating appreciated
Not going to lie every mans face looks like they're ready for anything to go down.. to much stress for a life, its sad.
They are bored didn't u see them lining up to check out the weirdo with the camera ? lol
I have been binge watching your videos. Such fascinating documentaries. Huge fan. Thanks for making these videos and educating others around the world. Including myself, who is an American and is fortunate enough to live a great lifestyle.
Indigo traveller does a an absolute fantastic job making these interesting videos from all around the world!
I certainly hope that poor woman who had no food or money to get home got a few dollars for being in your video.
It’s rare to see a video of my country where it’s not shot by an army presenting a brutal image of Afghanistan. Even though the country is struggling people forget to show that people live and prosper (of course it’s not likely people prosper, they do however survive and can strive to be happy). Thank you for trying to portray Afghanistan in a good light.
what a great video Nick, thank you so much, and your presentation and sensitive questioning are superb.
I am freaking hooked man your videos are amazing I love learning and seeing the real side of these countries we don't know much about. You do such a amazing job man. Please keep it up!
Just became a Patron, glad to support your great work, keep it up.
Thank you, guys. I am a huge supporter of your videos. Keep it up.
@@IndigoTraveller Cheers Nick, happy travels mate
Wow surprised seeing your comment here. I followed your first epic trip all the way up to Alaska. I haven't watched anything recently but I'll check you guys out now.
Thank you for putting this video together! Just donated $60 - keep them coming :)
Thank you so much!
👍👏🙏🇨🇦🇮🇳
Nice support man
@Nikita Potapov haha
Mehtaji , hope u donate to unprivileged lower caste ppl in india too or is it not cool enough?
Excellent episode. This gives a very deep understanding of humanity. Everyone has the same basic needs. The struggle to meet those is the challenge 🎙
I pray that the people in this Vlog are safe. My heart aches for those trapped under the Taliban.
I fell the same brother,let's pray for those people!!
i am in kabul now. tnx for your prayer, but i think it doesnt work
@@lifesucks4950 brother, I can't even imagine what you going trough in your life in this moment, I don't have gold or money, but as soon I saw your comment I prayed to the Lord for your comfort and an exit for you and your family... Don't lose hope... I don't know what you believe, maybe you're a Muslim, maybe you can't even read this freely, but the truth is, yes, there is a God, and the true God is good, the name of his son is Jesus, and he came to earth and he died for Us because of all of this darkness and sins you're seeing right there, the Lord doesn't want it, He gets so sad to see the suffering of His children, this tragedies that happened in Afghanistan actually were made by evil heart of the people deceived by the enemy, I don't know your situation right there, if there's a Taliban around right now and if you can read it, but I want to share a message with you wich the Lord said, He said:
“Come to me, all you who are weary and burdened, and I will give you rest"
and God said more:
Surely the arm of the LORD is not too short to save, nor his ear too dull to hear.
God hear your afflictions, I know it's easy for me to say it cuz I am not living your harsh circumstances, but please, today you don't see light, but tomorrow... tomorrow belongs to the Lord... please DON'T GIVE UP brother... My heart is with you all and the inocents who are suffering...
@@wallacefellipe8105 tnx brother for your care yes i am muslim we believe in god in different ways but god love us all.
@@lifesucks4950 I really hope you be okay... I've seen the images on TV, it's really heartbreaking Afghanistan situation... Please, if you have financial conditions, or when you have, please get out of there with your family if that is possible... Cause the situation over there is critical...
The love from that mother to her child is out of this world. Poor child as a grow man I can't imagine what that mother must go through to take care of that young one.
Every man in this world should appreciate their mothers, I hope hunger ends in the whole world
😂
Some mother's don't deserve the title to be fair
