The one I read had a Pashtun motto that went "me against my brothers, my brothers and I against our cousins, my cousins and I against our enemies."

Interesting. I have always heard that quoted as an Arab saying.

Can't get this out of my head, so I'll try posting it and see if that makes it go away - I have a mental image of Elmer Fudd dressed in desert camouflage singing "kill the Wahabis" while chasing Bugs Bunny who is wearing a turban and dressed in flowing robes.

Did a google search and I seem to be the first person to think of it.
