RE:Real problem of Pakistan are manifold
by ravi prakash on Feb 26, 2007 11:07 AM

It is unnatural for Pakistan to opt for any other ethnicity such as the Turk,the Afghan, the Iraqi Arab or the Irani Muslim or the Kurd or the Armenian. It is quite silly if they decide to cast their lot with these ethnic groups.
Like the proverbial fox who fell into a vat of indigo dye and thought himself the King of the beasts, it would be foolish for the Pakistani to claim any other ethicity other than the sub-continent simply because the Persian, Arabs and Mongols and Afghans invaded India and ruled over it.
The earlier they discard this mindset the better it for their own economy.It was one thing for the British to partition this country and quite another to continue based on the some lines as if it were something natural.
The two nation theory on which Pakistan is premised is unnatural. It is far easier for the elite Muslims to succeed in the Indian economy as the example of Mr Hashim Premji illustrates so vividly.
