      ALMIGHTY GOD KABIR is the father of all souls that JESUS, MOHAMMAD, GURU NANAK, VEDH was telling in BIBLE, QURAN, GURU GRANTHA SAHEB
      .. In OLD Orthodox Jewish Bible KABIR is mentioned...KABIR means (GREAT or MIGHTY GOD) in hebrew...but when translated in different languages translator removed KABIR word...

      Afghanistan is safe. This guy is just nervous and scared all the time and both of them dramatize "Taliban, Taliban, Taliban" all the time. IEA security forces (,police and army) have a job to protect national security, same as security forces in other countries do. Don't be scared when u come to Afghanistan, don't come with preconceived prejudices either...Just come and enjoy your visit.

      I suspect he was traumatized by his recent jail experience in Russia but that old travel bug dies hard, and thankfully he seems to have had a change of heart, perhaps in no small measure to Backpacker Ben. Bald really is a priceless treasure and would've hated to lose him.

    @Backpacker Ben I think the kid said either "America Murdabad" or "Taliban Murdabad", the initial part is muffled. And I am guessing it is the latter because he said it as soon as you mentioned the Taliban flag.

    the taliban have provided great security and made it safe for people to travel there. i hope to visit this beautiful country one day. It is in their interest to give a good impression of themselves to the world so stop making out they are some sort of blood thirsty alien species that want to execute you or something (its cringeworthy) . i look forward to your next vid!

      It seems the answer is simple. If certain foreign nations stop interfering in the affairs of other nations places like Afghanistan can be useful members of the World community. The World has developed differently in different places throughout history.

      Women don't speak to strangers men, nor is it acceptable and respect to film women in Afghanistan...the women will take offense themselves and be uncomfortable. Women are fine ...they had an art exhibition recently, a female doctor was made the head of a major hospital, business initiatives are in place for women and women move around freely contrary to what u believe.

    Hey Ben,
    Very cool and interesting content ;).
    Could you please explain something about the security situation in Kabul?
    Did you felt safe? I ask this because I've read that it was years ago much more dangerous on the streets (robbings, thefts, etc) and that its now better.
    I mean sure there are economical problems and criminal elements but it would be interesting to know a little bit about it.
    Best regards
