    Seriously, I hate to be so judgemental, but these middle-eastern people are nothing but a bunch of nutcases. Seriously!

    There will be lots of cut and paste and personal opinion and polite use of derogatory terms.

    And in the end, we'll still not be quite sure just where Pakistan is located.

    Well, I just wouldn't call it the Middle East. That's sort of around Israel through Iran.

    The people in Iran are not Arabs, and don't call themselves that...

    And India is certainly not the Middle East, and it is called South Asia. Pakistan used to be two parts, west and east. East is now Bangladesh.

    Afghanistan is more towards the Middle East, so I would say Pakistan is not really there, although it does have a Moslem population.

    (maybe I missed something, but in general I think Jon and I agree on most WE topics, so I don't really think you're in the right thread if you're thirsting for a hockey brawl)
