Unsaid

It’s November 26th at 11:27 pm when we first hear about the tragic attempted murder of a Taliban member immigrant to two of the U.S’s national guards. News like this feels heavier than headlines, especially for those of us whose identities are already fragile in public perception.

It was already the situation where immigrants are in such a sensitive situation and yet by the pass of last year’s least, less people closer to none recognizes different types of Afghan people who come to start and who come to leave the fear.

We weren’t much surprised by the news. For people like us who live with two identities it leaves a mark, so it’s reasonable that for who invaded our country with blood it would of course not be much of difficulty to kill one or two other people, no matter the country. 

The Hazara Association which by now believed it was only for culture not politics is now woken up to a problem it’s late to fix; When things like this happen, people stop seeing differences. They don’t see who escaped the Taliban and who supports them. And it hurts to be known with the same title as my genocider who took our land and breathed under our nose, and draines life, from them, everywhere. 

It never ends, “The history will repeat itself,” they say, in our case the tragedy has never ended to be repeated again. The genocide from them and the forced fear for life in us survived decades and still lives within us it wouldn’t change until we change and they don’t let us change. 

My parents are now looking for any recent updates of tonight’s hot topic and none is new information… But more than everything that burns my heart is that my immigration case would be again under process, after it had already happened twice before.

 Still I have my endless sympathy to the National Guard families, those in whose country it took place in and messed up the ideal “Thanks Giving” ceremony. What I want to say is that we have empathy with you along the way because we also have been and still are their genocide victims from Abdul Rahman Khan’s time till now and hope it ends here and not more people would be such victims of big political wars because instead of some people who come to bring violence, some come because they are trying to escape it.
