    Many people in his situation would have hidden their religion or left the country. Kudos to him for not doing either of those things!

    I was supporting Isaac while he was alone during Taliban time in Kabul and but Zublan was in Uzbekistan and only Isaac Luvi was in Kabul and looking after the Jewish mosque in Kabul and Isaac was really innocent, caring, gentleman and there was an old Book covered by silver in second floor and It was taken by Taliban and Isaac was locked up in toilet of home ministry by Taliban and was forcing to convert to Islam but he was denying so where was Zublan on those days ? I know all the situation about Isaac and his life in Kabul coz I was working with Red Cross and supporting him financially via Red Cross

      Do not worry !!!! God will pay you for your help in charity to this Jew. You deserve a lot of respect.
      I'm very interested in the Pashtun tribes, do you know them? It fascinates me very much.

      I always suspected that Isaac was not a bad guy. Zublan was bad mouthing him in another video even after his death. Are you Afghan? Wish Afghan jews will return to their homeland and restore their synagogue.

      Can you tell me if you know about special customs that you do, for example.
      Do you do circumcision and at what age?
      When someone dies, what exactly do they do?
      Do you make a brick holiday at the age of 13?
      What do not you eat that the other Muslims do eat?
      Light candles for something? Or someone?
      What are the names of your tribes and what does this mean?
      What does the word Pashtuns mean?
      What is the difference in customs and ceremonies among the Muslims around you?
      There are many more questions and I am "thirsty" to know.

      Ooh dude I don't know about a lot of them.
      But let me tell you one thing that we diffintly are from the lost 12 tribes of bani Israel.
      We are bani Israelites.
      Our forefathers were jews.
      I am from north western Pakistan karak city!
      From khattak tribe.
      The famous poet and warrior "khushal Khan khattak" used to say himself that pushtun are bani Israelites.
      And there are a lot of other people who claim the same thing.
      My khattak tribe.
      Yousufzai tribe
      Afridi tribe
      These 3 tribes are confirm bani Israelites.

      Hi there! I went to school in Kabul with an Afghan Jew (his name was Herzel) a very good friend of mine (this was in the 80s) We also had a private teacher and used their home for the teaching.....Fun time but we disconnected as we left Afghanistan. They lived behind the Ministry of Interior, opposite Malalai school. Hope you knew them and can connect me! :) Thank you!

      ***** nah read some of their statements it ain't banned. The leader recently said "As the Islamic Emirate (Taliban) has various commissions and departments, the armed Mujahideen and officials must therefore partner with these administrative bodies. Aside from conducting military operations, the Mujahideen must also exert themselves in Preaching and Guidance or invitation of enemy personnel. In education sector, you must create opportunities for religious and scientific education for children and the younger generation of the country in the framework of Shariah. You must similarly participate in all the working bodies for the development and improvement of Jihadi work to the best of your abilities."
