The problem in Afghanistan (and for that matter, certain African countries, as well) is that it's too profitable to be a warlord/opium lord or follow a warlord versus all other opportunities. I'm not even sure what peaceful, economic opportunities the land of Afghanistan can even provide. This supposed Afghan proclivity for violence and division is not inherent to any culture but the result of an accident of circumstance. They live in a barren, mountainous wasteland. Most Afghans are peaceful. What culture do you think is responsible for the suicide bombings and the IEDs?

You get one guess.
