The general idea when searching through google, is that a Arab country is classified that way because of their language.

I'm saying I wouldn't be surprised if Afghan's thought we were part of a Christian occupation force. I don't recall saying I was dead sure they all thought that way.

Oh so now you're not 'dead sure'?
I wouldn't be suprised at a lot of things. For example, I wouldn't be suprised if Saddam didn't move WMD prior to the Iraq War. But no, that doesn't cut it around here, does it?
Geeez.

That said, given your enormous blunder of not even knowing what ethnicity lives in Afghanistan, I maintain that it seems likely Afghanis could make the same mistake you made, out of ignorance.

Enormous blunder?
I'm pretty sure the Afghani's would have a thing or two to say about the NATO led force if they viewed it as a Christian occupation army.
Remember the big deal about the Islamic covert to Christianity a while ago? Wasn't his life in danger because of that?
