They are very good brother, they learned from years of experience.
I know your flags say UK, but are you born (originate) in Pakistan? If so, what part?
I am in the US now, but from Faisalabad.
What languages do you speak?
For me mainly Punjabi and Urdu, although I have picked up decent amount of Pukhto and Hindko. Been teaching myself Dari (Eastern Farsi) and Turkish. I am also fluent in Classical Arabic, I studied it for a long time and grew up with Arabs.
I'm British and Proud, old masters, but it is my home
so this country deserves my loyalty.
What can I say about Pakistan, Pakistan is meri Jaan, my heaven (please no comments from religious lot, thank you), although my links are limited. But I'm fairly aware about meri Jannat. I don't consider myself a patriot, I just try to defend the truth.
You certainly have a gift for languages. I was born in Pakistan but raised here from a young age. I've been to a few countries but my main language is always good old English. I can get by fine in Urdu and Punjabi, but I am not purely Punjabi.
My sole purpose for joining this forum after years of viewing was military matters. But, around the time I decided to join I started reading non-military threads and was less than impressed with the originality of thinking among Pakistani members. For example, no one questions the term Partition. They argue with Indians on the same point the Indians have raised, without opening a critical line of thinking and so on, basically a shouting match.
I've discovered some Pakistani members are good (God it's refreshing), others, at least from what I have seen so far, are let's just say interesting, so I thought let me add my two bits.
I joined with the explicit intention not to share too much information, because then the argument gets personal, rather than arguing the point. The assumption becomes, you are this, so that is why you have this view, or that's why you are saying this, etc, etc...
I believe in arguing the point, not the person, although some people need to be taught a lesson sometimes, and have already done that a few times.
Hope you won't mind, but, if you really want to know more, please send me a private message anytime and I'll happily share my background, to a limit lol
