Buzkashi (Goat Grabbing) in Afghan culture...

In Afghanistan, this is similar to polo… a headless goat is used instead of ball… It looks violent…

Why does innocent goat grabbed so mercilessly? What is the history of this game(national game of Afghanistan)?

I remember… I asked this question…

Afghanistan does not have fertile land… They are proud of their invasion… They like Punjab…

words from a person who understand their culture more than us…

Invasions can never be justified on ethical grounds. but again ethics is not a well defined term :chai:

Re: Buzkashi (Goat Grabbing) in Afghan culture…

Polo is more civilized than Buzkashi… why Buzkashi? :nahi:

Re: Buzkashi (Goat Grabbing) in Afghan culture…

These Afghans and central Asians were very much interested in making towers of human-heads. This buz-kashi is nothing but just a goodwill gesture to the humans who could breath a little more thanks to those goats :smiley:
