Perhaps you're referring to those who were peace-keepers in Kabul on
earlier assigments. Kabul is a multi-ethnic city where the Pashtuns are
a minority.

Don't confuse that with the aggressive U.S./ Canadian war-making
mission to Kandahar and eastern /southern Afghanistan (the Pashtun
heartland). They're not fond of armed foreigners shooting the place up/
or dropping bombs there.

Get a clue.
