Fatima is right.Our people have so much in common.We reralised this when we were in Nigeria for two years. It was 25 years back. Inspite of Indian Families our best family friends were a young family "Javeds" a newly married couple.Every Sunday they used to be with us and people used to taunt us that we behave high because we got a beautiful bride in our household. We have nostalgic memories of those days. We wish Javeds come and stay with us for sometime.

Having Pakisthani / Muslim friends does not Pakisthan a natural friend. There is so much dislike for Pakisthan in India, u can feel it everywhere. They believed in a two nation theory, attacked India FOUR times and claim be siblings? And where does hate get us, atleast to a better place then friendship. When Mr Vajpeye was on abus to Lahore, Musharaf was plotting Kargil. So much for sibling bonding.
Just think of kargil martyr families b4 making these I love Pak statements

You say believed in two Nation theory. Who are "They". Every Muslim did not believe in that. Politics and Jinna's opinion played the role. Muslims were made to believe that they will be better off without Hindu's domination.A lot of Muslims remained in India. In Nigeria I met a Pakistani Muslim who migrated from Meerut.Inspite of years of stay in Pakistan he was Nostalgic about his ancestral place and wished to come back to his ancestral place.He said that he sufferred much more than the Hindu's sufferred in this mass migration. I wish that you go to Pakistan or some Pakistanis come and stay with you.
