Pakistan-Afghanistan Relations: The Choice Between Alliance and Acrimony

Re: # 175

Don`t sweat it dude, arjun is just pulling your legs... nobody cares what pakis think about anything or anybody... I mean - these days, what does it mean to be a pakistani?... a terrorist, an islamist, bin laden, taliban... And what does mean to be an indian?... economy, growth, high tech industry, bollywood, rising power...

That`s bottom line... sorry to say this, but you got nothing dude... and you are not even good looking... :)

[......... let me assure you again, that most pakistanis have no desire to mix or be mixed up with indians .....]

Hamidm unkil, with all due respect, this is ridiculous. Are you denying that all pakis are totally obsessed with India?

Lets see now. Every Paki speaks an Indian origin language i.e. Urdu. How many Indians speak a Pak origin language? Every Paki watches Indian movies, even the ISI and Army ideologues, even the mullahs of MMA (in secret of course). How many Indians watch Paki movies? Every Paki listens to Indian music - Kishore Kumar, Mohammad Rafi, Lata. How many Indians listen to Pakis (except for a few recent bands)? Every Paki loves Indian food whether it is mughlai or biriyani or samosas or dosas(lets face it, all these were created in India!!). How many Indians like pure Paki food like Frontier Gosht?

Paki newspapers are obsessed with India, with even articles on rural electrification benchmarking against India. Indian newspapers rarely mention Pakistan except when there is a bomb blast since they are too busy speculating about an Aishwariya-Abhishek marriage. Poor Ayaz Amir on his visit to Delhi was totally fed up that Indian newspapers had given up on geo-politics (translation: interest in Pakistan), and was all about fashion shows, music and Bollywood!! He was probably cursing us mirasi hindus, no doubt!!

Only a few US based Indians are obsessed with Pakis and that too only on the internet, mainly as a result of being well off and bored with nothing else to do at home.

Re: # 173

arjun,

..... i think you are just a little paranoid ............ let me assure you again, that most pakistanis have no desire to mix or be mixed up with indians ......... i am a rare exception and i do it because of the principle of dire necessity - my desire to drink and then eat spicey food (and as a penance for the sins of my forefathers) ......... if i could find four good pakis to drink with me, i would stop associating with all indians - trust me, it is painful to see them shakig their heads sideways while i am still sober ....... now please go and read dawn or dailytimes and then come back and tell us what we pakis are saying about ourselves ........... doesn`t it strike you odd that not a single paki here reads the indian press - do you guys even have a press ?

#173 rabid macaca had a busy day today i see on chowk. :-)

but if it makes you feel any better


No..it doesn`t make me feel any better..in fact, it makes me worry...a paki calling himself an Indian is still a jihadi...

Re: # 171

Sure - we have been hearing that for a while now... but who would that good looking paki be?... I mean - apart from a couple of cricket players like Imran Khan - who else is a good looking paki that we can verify this claim on? men, women - both... give us some examples...

On our side - we have the entire bollywood... who do you have on your side?... :)

Re: # 170

arjun,

..... i don`t think it is nice to knock captain clueless when he is not here to defend himself - i am sure there is some truth to his claims of feeding some starving indian code coolies even though, as we all know, it doesn`t take much to cook up some idlee on a banana leaf .......... but i will grant you that there are some, hopefully not many, shameless pakis who will stoop to the level of claiming to be indians ........... but if it makes you feel any better, i will admit that contrary to my protestations, there is not a heck of a lot of difference between your `northies` and our punjabi or your bihari and our biharis - madrasis, tamilians and naidus are of course another breed ........... sometimes a paki is just a good looking indian with an attitude ........

The pakis in little pakistan in brooklyn were trying to pass themselves off as indians when the INS was targeting pakis for deportation....

When the INS comes calling, pakis leave their honor and dignity behind...all the talk about beign a hotshot IT businessman employing Indians and ``helping CIO/VP types set up their IT departments`` gets left behind on the road to canuckistan....

Re: # 168

I understand your predicament , mr hamid gopinath, but sometimes you simply don`t have a choice... with daisy-cutters, hellfires raining down - what can you do? :)

Re: # 167

mohar mian,

..... if i was in the restaurant business, i too would call my desi joint an `indian` restaurant - it is simply good business sense even though it hurts because it implies that idlee is food fit for human consumption ............ but i still can`t imagine any self-respecting, or even self-hating paki calling themseves an indian even though they might not want to wear one of romair`s t-shirts ........ it would be like an armenian passing himself of as a turk, or a serbian proudly claiming to be a croat or, worse yet, an american calling himself a canadian ............. sorry

Re: # 166

Sure - nothing is more insulting then being called a hinud... but after 9/11, things are pretty tight for pakis, so passing off as a hinud ain`t that bad no more....

Not to talk of all those pakis who run ``indian`` restaurants....
