Do you consider Pakistan to be a Middle-Eastern nation?

[PAKISTANFOREVER]

Actually I do strongly consider always Pakistan to be a Middle-eastern nation due to its historic links with Persian Empire, Arab linkages and then Indus Valley Civilization of its own. And now Pakistan with Muslims majority, customs and culture much like the Middle-eastern but I highly consider Pakistanis to be much sharper, hard-work and resilient in all the Middle-eastern nations.

Although we have many things in common with Middle Eastern people and nations, we are also at the same time different too. Pakistan is Pakistan. We have a unique identity, culture and way of life. We are neither South Asian or Middle Eastern. We are the Pakistan.

Iran(for sure), Turkey even Egypt

This is true (I am not trying to hype up Pakistan, but from nuetral presepective you can see these qualities)

Unfortunately leadership hasn't utillised these qualities to Thier advantage

Just good at building defence etc but no one thaught about going above and beyond into actual economic sector

We have suffered by not educating or bringing up our people on the Indus Valley and its history. The majority amongst us feel the need to ape Saudi or Turk culture because our own connection with history is weak.
