Has it experienced a lot of violence? The articles I have read suggest that this is troubling because it is a novel occurrence in that region- is this an accurate assessment?
Yes, such actions are not prevalent there because the province has a very small number of Pashtun inhabitants.
The area has been very peaceful except when people from the very same district joined Talibananas and burned farmlands in the Eastern parts of the province and committed massacres in the Western parts.

I doubt Kufa had
Jus Soli. But there are those who claim that he was born in Charikar and left for Baghdad (the NYC of the day) when young or visiting back there from time to time.
