Afghan leader Hami Karzai led Pashtun resistance
- Summary:
-
Karzai's life is in stark contrast with that of four of his brothers, who long ago opted for the comforts of American suburbia.
In 1995 the Taliban approached Karzai to be their permanent representative at the United Nations.
But by then he was disillusioned by the religious movement because he said it had been hijacked by neighboring Pakistan.
To break fast at the end of another day of Ramadan, Hamid Karzai took one from a box that was then passed around the gathering of dozens of political and military leaders.
Independent - minded warlords elsewhere remain dissatisfied with the Bonn agreement and may wait for the opportunity to undermine it.
There are seven Karzai brothers.
But Noor is confident that his uncle will be able to unite all Afghans in the near future.
