Is there any way to overcome the situtation in the South?...

Dear Aziz,
Thank you for the picture and comments. It is commendable that there are progressive groups within Afghanistan who wish to move forward despite the hardships that are placed in the way of that effort.
I am interested to know if the Tajiks and Uzbeks share any of the same effort to make their life better as does the Hazara. I know that often the Tajiks use their base of power (primarily the military) to advance their cause, but do they share the same interest in further education as a means of making their lives stronger?
As a side note, I have heard many different stories about the situation of Herat and the support provided by Iran. My question is, what is the primary ethnic makeup of Herat City and Province? The Iranians have a great interest in education, do Hazaras participate in that effort?
What do you feel is the reason that the south has not progressed in their development? Is there a way to overcome their resistance or are they happy with their status in life?
Thank you again.
By the way, was the picture taken at Dubai Airport?
Rob
