India will be a dominant player in South Asia, Middle East

[Spitfighter]

I agree completely and I asked him not to indulge in this anymore....

I cant speak for Spitfighter or make him apologize, bit I think an apology is definitely in order from him as well....

PS: You indulged in calling Indians slaves as well.....care to rectify that? Spitfighter has appropriately deleted his offensive posts....

I agree, that was definitely quite stupid of me.

I apologize if I offended any one.

Wait, were Pakistanis around before the Muslim (Iran, Afghanistan, Arab) invasions or not?



So did the persian empire include the people that lived in Pakistan, or did they drive away the original inhabitants and occupy the land?

So are you Iranic or Indic?

If you believe in Aryan invasion theory (which I don't)... then Aryans from West (Iran) drove away the original inhabitants.

But I don't think it is true.. on and off Pakistan has been part of Persian empire and there was intermingling of people.. there are some Pakistanis which look Iranic and there are some which don't. But present day Pakistanis were never slaves of Persians.

I am both (Iranic and Indic)...

 

[Hammy007]

Even in that case Pakistanis accepted diversity... nothing wrong with Persian/Afghan tribes settling in present day Pakistan.. they have been part of Persian empire for so long... so in other words you are accepting Pakistanis are different than South Indians?

Do you know about Cyrus and Cyrus cylinder ? The Cyrus cylinder has been called "the world's first declaration of human rights"

Pakistan (Eastern territories of Persian Empire) were just like other provinces of Persian empire, they were never slave territories.

its not big deal at all, weak arabs defeated the so called "proud persian empire" and owned them for a long time, they even changed your religion. alexander defeated persian empire earlier and rule iranians for a considerable amount of time.

persians at some ancient time ruled only parts of balochistan, it never rule sindh and punjab so you cannot generlize the whole country. balochis share more with the sindh and punjab then iranians, only balochi language shares some thing with iranian language but they belong to the indus valley civilization.

Try speaking in Urdu to Iranians, Mongols and Afghans, and then try speaking in Urdu to Indians. I think you will have your answer on which country is closer to you culture/language wise.

Its just God's will that because of Urdu being a national language in Pakistan, even though none of the current ethnic groups speak Urdu as first language has made Pakistanis "closer" to India in terms of speaking the same language. So even the Baloch and the Pashtoons who didn't speak Urdu before are now at least conversant if not fluent in it.

Besides migration of Aryan populations from Iran and Central Asia towards the fertile plains of India has been happening for thousands of years. Its not like it was suddenly in the 11th century that they started moving into the Indian mainland. So the genetic markers of North Indians reflect this change over period of time.

In a similar manner you can see the widespread Dravidian populations of south India and their influence over Indonesia , Malaysia, Singapore e.t.c. as they ruled over much of the South East Asian region around the same time.

Many Pakistanis are similar to North West Indians... not South Indians... By your own logic Pakistanis should try speaking Urdu to someone from Kerala, Tamil Nadu etc... that means we are NOT closer to South Indians language wise (according to your own argument)

I work with tons of South Indians, and they don't speak a word of Hindi.. forget Urdu (which borrows lots of its vocabulary from Persian)

exactly, thats why i wonder why few pakistanis say that urdu is 60% or some even say 90% persian, when an indian speaking hindi can understand urdu much better than any persian, i have some persian class mates and when we pak speak urdu they cant understand anything except some few words. the dialect is also different.
