A number of Afghan citizens have launched a campaign on Twitter to protest the “targeted killing” of Hazaras.
Launched under the name (StopHazaraGenocide #), the campaign says the world must recognize the killing of Hazaras as “genocide” and work to protect the Hazaras.
Arif Rahmani, a member of the Afghan House of Representatives, wrote that the Afghan government’s refusal to acknowledge the “genocide” of the Hazaras, political and human rights organizations, and elites is a “double oppression” of this section of citizens “under oppression and discrimination.”
Rahmani expressed hope that the Afghan government, by acknowledging this “genocide”, would take serious measures to end it. “The world must not turn a blind eye to this systematic genocide,” he stressed.
Ahmad Behzad, a former member of the Afghan House of Representatives, wrote: “Targeted killing; It is part of the removal policy. This policy is implemented in different areas with different methods and tools. There is a significant relationship between millennial genocide and systematic discrimination against this society. The causes of murder and discrimination are thought to be eliminated. “To end the killing, end discrimination.”
Nasser Teymouri, head of advocacy and communications for Transparency International Afghanistan, wrote that the “genocide” of Hazaras in Afghanistan, especially in a series of attacks in western Kabul after the attack on the Sayyid al-Shuhada school, was “but the reality is that “Health, religion, education, mosques and… were systematically attacked in western Kabul.”
Hasiba Effat, a former member of the Parwan Provincial Council, is another user who has addressed the issue. Ms. Effat wrote that none of Afghanistan’s tribes are safe, but that “the systematic and systematic killing of Hazara brothers and sisters should not be silenced.”
Parviz Shomal writes that in Afghanistan all ethnic groups, including Hazaras, Pashtuns, Tajiks, Uzbeks, and others, have been harmed, but the fact cannot be ignored that the old, young, children and even infants of any ethnic group like Hazaras have not been attacked just because of their lineage. And has not been “slaughtered.”
Journalist Khalil Pajhwok described the Hazaras’ insistence that the killing of these people was “genocidal” as a struggle not for privilege or honor, but as a “minimal” attempt to recognize suffering.
