He is/was a Dari speaker but is more fluent in english (aka amerikan) than Fazir or Pushtu, wears a combination of regional symbols that would have him beaten senseless were he to appear on a Kabuli street without his steriod sodden US mercenary bodyguard.<br />In case anyone wants to check, he wears a karakul hat (Kabuli - aristocrat), an Uzbek shepherd's coat (looks like Joseph's many coloured that so pissed off his brothers) on his shoulders - because the extra long sleeves are intended for rescuing snow bound lambs, and pathan (southern) baggy pants.<br />Also, he speaks for no-one even in Kabul from which he dare not venture.

In case anyone wants to check, he wears a karakul hat (Kabuli - aristocrat), an Uzbek shepherd’s coat (looks like Joseph’s many coloured that so pissed off his brothers) on his shoulders - because the extra long sleeves are intended for rescuing snow bound lambs, and pathan (southern) baggy pants.
Also, he speaks for no-one even in Kabul from which he dare not venture.
