Calling America a shitty country.

Did they do anything on Quadi's day, which gave us freedom from the Queen at the first place? Why to rush to observe the mourning day, especially when we have floods.

They did have state visits by the Duke and Dutchess of Caimbridge a couple of years back to maintain good relations so that is sign of good gesture by them.

Pakistan will observe a day of mourning on Monday (tomorrow) over the death of Britain’s Queen Elizabeth, state news agency APP reported.
Upon the recommendation of the Ministry of Foreign Affairs, Prime Minister Shehbaz Sharif accorded his approval for observing a day of mourning in Pakistan, on September 12, on the demise of Queen Elizabeth II.
Separately, the Pakistan High Commission in London tweeted: “To express solidarity with the government and people of the United Kingdom on the sad demise of Her Majesty Queen Elizabeth II, Pakistan will observe a national day of mourning on 12 Sept. 2022. During the day, Pakistan’s flag will be lowered to half-mast throughout the country.”






Meanwhile, the coffin of Queen Elizabeth will be taken from her home in the Scottish Highlands on a slow, six-hour journey to Edinburgh on Sunday, giving the public a chance to line the roads in tribute to the monarch who died after seven decades on the throne.
The death of the 96-year-old has provoked tears, sadness and warm tributes, not just from the queen’s own close family and many in Britain, but also from around the globe — reflecting her presence on the world stage for the last 70 years.

On Sunday at 0900 GMT, Elizabeth’s oak coffin, which has been in the ballroom of Balmoral Castle covered with the royal standard of Scotland and with a wreath of flowers on top, will be placed in a hearse by six gamekeepers.
Accompanied by the queen’s daughter, Princess Anne, the cortege will slowly make its way from the remote castle, winding through small towns and villages to Edinburgh where the coffin will be taken to the throne room of the Palace of Holyroodhouse.
Tens of thousands have gathered at royal palaces in the days since Elizabeth’s death on Thursday to leave flowers and to pay their respects.
“I know how deeply you, the entire nation — and I think I may say the whole world — sympathise with me in the irreparable loss we have all suffered,” her son King Charles said at a ceremony on Saturday where he was officially proclaimed the new monarch.
“It is the greatest consolation to me to know of the sympathy expressed by so many to my sister and brothers and that such overwhelming affection and support should be extended to our whole family in our loss.”
While Elizabeth’s death was not totally unexpected given her age, the fact her health had been deteriorating and the passing of her husband of 73 years Prince Philip last year, there was still a sense of shock at the news.
“We all thought she was invincible,” her grandson Prince William, now the heir to the throne, told a well-wisher on Saturday as he met crowds at Windsor castle.

Funeral​

Elizabeth’s state funeral will be held at London’s Westminster Abbey on Monday, Sept 19, which will be a public holiday in Britain, officials announced.
US President Joe Biden said he would be there, although full details of the event and the attendees have not yet been released.
Before that, her coffin will be flown to London and there will be a sombre procession when it is later moved from Buckingham Palace to Westminster Hall where it will lie in state for four days.
In 2002, more than 200,000 people queued to pay their respects to Elizabeth’s mother while her coffin lay in state and aides have previously said there is an expectation that millions may want to visit.
“It goes without saying that we can expect large numbers of people,” the spokesperson for Prime Minister Liz Truss told reporters.
Truss, whose appointment as prime minister on Tuesday was the queen’s last public act, will join King Charles as both the new head of state and prime minister tour the four nations of the United Kingdom in the next few days.
Charles, 73, immediately succeeded his mother but was officially proclaimed as king on Saturday in a colourful ceremony laden with pageantry and dating back centuries following a meeting of the Accession Council at St James’s — a royal palace built for Henry VIII in the 1530s.
Charles is now the 41st monarch in a line that traces its origins to the Norman King William the Conqueror who captured the English throne in 1066.
Elizabeth’s death has capped a difficult couple of years for the royal family which has seen the loss of Prince Philip, its patriarch, her second son Prince Andrew accused of sex abuse — which he denied — and grandson Prince Harry and his wife Meghan step down from royal life to move to California.
Harry and Meghan have been alienated from the rest of the family since, with Harry and brother William said to be barely on speaking terms.
But the death of their grandmother managed to reunite them, as they appeared together with their wives outside Windsor Castle to meet the crowds on Saturday.
A royal source described it as an important show of unity at an incredibly difficult time for the family.

Further Confirmation that Pakistan is still a commonwealth colony despite getting independence in 1947

We might have a piece of land, but still we are mentally slave.
What about a day of mourning for the 1000s of Pakistanis who have died in the floods?

Doesn't Great Britain have the largest Iranian community outside of Iran? Those same Iranians who would rather live under the British monarchy rather than this tyrannical regime.
Nope. The United States has the largest community of Iranians outside of Iran and then comes Canada.
And they are not the same Iranians.

Nevertheless, it's still way better than observing a day of mourning for the Queen of England.

Agreed. Observing is a bit too much but a statement of condolence is a norm and goes far; especially when the royal family visits Pakistan every now and then to maintain good relations.

And they also send aid at times of need.

But regardless, even plenty of Iranians who are not pro-monarchist have no love for the Ayatollah regime.

Yeah, millions of Iranians have no love for the current regime, but nearly all Iranians regardless of their political affiliation detest the British.

Actually, the pro-monarchy people hate the British more than your average Iranian and they often accuse the British of conspiring against the Shah to bring the Islamic regime to power.

George Carter Stent described the process as follows:

“The prisoner is generally tied to a gun with the upper part of the small of his back resting against the muzzle. When the gun is fired, his head is seen to go straight up into the air some forty or fifty feet; the arms fly off right and left, high up in the air, and fall at, perhaps, a hundred yards distance; the legs drop to the ground beneath the muzzle of the gun; and the body is literally blown away altogether, not a vestige being seen.”

The Age of Imperialism was certainly a crime against humanity.

yet you are busy licking Chinese boots for a few coins and they never gave you citizenship

Agreed with everything except for the Chinese part. The Chinese have been our best friends in Asia and stood by us when even our imaginary "muslim ummah" failed us.

One should laugh or cry ????

A Muslim country observing a day of mourning for a Christian Queen!!!

I'm sure Israel, created by UK, didn't do the same ....

It's pathetic....

So what if she's not Muslim? Her own monarchy is inclusive of all faiths including Islam:
