Dear Readers,
While All Things Pakistan has remained alive and online, it has been dormant since June 11, 2011 - when, on the blog's 5th anniversary, we decided that it was time to move on. We have been heartened by your messages and the fact that a steady traffic has continued to enjoy the archived content on ATP. While the blog itself will remain dormant, we are now beginning to add occasional (but infrequent) new material by the original authors of the blog, mostly to archive what they may now publish elsewhere. We will also be updating older posts to make sure that new readers who stumble onto this site still find it useful.
We hope you will continue to find ATP a useful venue to reflect upon and express your Pakistaniat. - Editors
The aroma of this terpene blend – strawberry cough is really good and natural, not too strong but hush clear in the best way. It blends smoothly and adds a much control superiors flavor diagram without compelling the aggregate else. Flush a close amount makes a difference, which says a lot about the quality. The packaging was secure, shipping was connected, and the mainly circumstance felt reliable. Unquestionably decent spin-off and joined I’d joyfully command again.
Paul,
Ancient India were United? I read different state rulers used to fight with each other.
Hi there,
I do not understand one thing. Why did people living in current territory of Pakistan wanted to separate from India? Weren’t hey one, unite country since ancient times? What was India doing to this lands that people living there didn’t want to belong to that country? What made them feel like separate nation? I do not understand that. It is only 60 years old country and India has much longer history. Why couldn’t India stay unite without loosing current lands of Pakistan and Bangladesh?

Stop this negative propaganda, DO what ever you like to do but don’t spread this self mad image for Pakistan.
I am Kashif, a student from Ohio. I have few points to mention about Pakistaniat in me here…
I have lived my life in Islamabad, until 2 years back, when i came to US for further studies. After 2 years of my existence in US and seeing what is the image of Pakistanis here, I am very frustrated.
Somebody asks me, if i am an Indian. When i say that i am a Pakistani, I am sidelined. The internships are favoured to Indians. Somehow, these westners think that Indians are very intelligent species on earth, and others not. Some feel that all those who come here for graduate education are undergrads from IITs(regarded as better than Stanford univ by them.) I am forced to listen to listen to bollywood songs, to keep me “socially updated”. Suddenly, being an Indian here is the “cool” thing, or an “in” thing. Worst is – Indian muslims treat me as a second fiddle. One thing I have noticed here, is that Indian muslims consider India first and then Islam. We have foolishly fallen into the religious circle. We consider fellow muslim from any part of world as our brother. Indian muslim considers fellow Indian (Hindu or Christian or Sikh) as his brother.
And why am i writing this in a pakistaniat column? Because there is no room for Pakistaniat outside Pakistan. Many of our fellow Pakistani brothers call themselves Indians. Many Pakistanis start an “Indian” restaurant. Why do we have to be a second fiddle to India. India is on its way to global economic power. So be it. We should not get bogged down by that. Indians are present all over the world. So be it. Indians control the silicon valley. So be it.
We should maintain our prudence, despite all odds.
Pakistan zindabad.
