Let them bark brother, I really do not care . He is not the only Pakistani here who bark against Bangladesh . Once I used to protest them , now I do pity them, and do not consider it wise to waste my time on them ( whoever love mudslinging instead of participating in a fruitful discussion). They and their counter part Sanghis are actually the same..
I sometimes wish I was a Bihari. .Great people from a great land !

Abar kobe ban hoiben hujur ektu janaiyen amare ! Apni to beshirbhag time ajkal ban ei thaken !
Nowadays I do not bother reading posts from many marked users , both Pakistani and Indian . So can not find such posts for you sorry. But I see those people are still posting here ( In Bangladesh defense forum).
I absolutely loved it, until you said religion has nothing to do with our national identity. Religion is always part of every nations national identity, that is just a matter of fact, it cannot be rejected.
I am far more secular then I can tell you, but Islamic values form a core of my thinking, it is natural because that is the environment, the familial environment everyone grows up in, among every religious groups, even among secular nations, they look to the historical religious associations, so you absorb those ethos as part of your identity.
If you adjust to religion is not the "ONLY" part of our identity, then, it would be beautiful and factually correct
Sorry, I missed the bit after that,
Brother, we are South Asians, that fact cannot be rejected, South Asian is a geographical term, you cannot uproot and place yourself in a different part of the world, it is not physically possible.
Geographically, we are South Asians, and we do have historical cultural linkages, its is just a fact.
But we also have cultural, plus religious affiliations and links with the West and Central Asia.
Why must we choose,
lets just be honest with our history, we are the children of the incus, I am happy with that.
But don't tear away East Pakistan, it was once part of our body, at least for me, it will always have a special place in my heart, I have no wish for unification, but, neither do I wish to reject them.
Who is barking against Bangladesh?
Sorry I tried to find it but must have missed few posts.

" religion is not the "ONLY" part of our identity " . I changed that sentence on the OP. Check. Thanks for pointing this out.
May I differ here.? Being honest with our history is exactly the reason why we must see future in a different light. "East Pakistan" is history.
There is no reason for the wish for fantasy "unification" or for that matter even a "special place in our hearts". We have already rejected each other politically, geographically, and massacred each other's populations over language and culture. Not recognizing the viable identity of Pakistan has cost us precious lives of our armed forces, and the intervention of our mortal enemy. We can't dwell on the past but the road to the future is clear. We are transforming as rapidly as a boy transforms to a youth in adolescence. The physical, and mental, changes are stark. The transformation of a boy to adulthood is permanent so also is the establishment of our national identity.
Whatever my personal feelings,
As brothers, if the majority holds your thinking, then we stand united. For united we stand, divided we fall.
But, just go easy with Bengali brothers, if I can try and adjust to your requirements, at least have the courage to create little room for me
Good and bad, you will find everywhere, but on balance, they are a decent lot.
True, and we are never going to fall again.
