    ^Me lady, the word in question is P A K I ... (please Admina Khan, I mean no offence to anyone)

    Anyway, my point was that none of us use it in a negative way.
    I desire that which is Just - House of Dukemina.

          no one is calling any one a dog. just for the fear of some one doing that are you going to have the word "dog" removed from the dictionary? if i come here and all i see is a bunch of people talking about four stars what will i learn?

            ^ are you educated about the four stars now ? or do you need some more alphabetical research ?

              you people will never get any where because you think like a 13 year old girl who can not control her sentiments.
              did you also refuse to look at the sketch of the female in the text books of your biology class because it is wrong to look at a woman's body?
              try being practical for a change.

                hey atleast even 13 year old girls know being racist is a "bad" thing, but yeah go on write a thesis on it..pretty sure it'll be very educational for you, since after all this education your unable to comprehend a simple thing that if a word is universally acknowledged as a racial slur, then it is done so for good reasons. Being practical means having enough common sense to see that fact

                  I can see why the Credere might be offended, but the plain fact of the matter is that Pakistani or its shortened loaded form is not a race.

                  African-orgin Sheedis and fair-skinned Pashtoons might technically be Pakistani, but the latter (the passport) doesn't describe their race.

                  Seems that the blurring of Pakistan into Panjabee identity is somehow the issue here.

                    yes i was wondering when the word "punjabee" would be dragged here, i wonder if the nazis hated jews as much as you despise "punjabeees"

                        I don't despise Panjabees and I guess I'll have to ignore the other part of your outburst, though this gives me a little bit of insight into the level you'll drop to.

                        No, what I said was the blurring of term Pakistani and Panjabee into one appeared to the issue here.

                                A line[Durrand line] of hatred that raised a wall between the two brothers -Hamid Karzai

                                For generations, the Hindus of India prayed for deliverance from "the venom of the cobra, the teeth of the tiger and the vengeance of the Afghan."


                                The men of Kábul and Khilj also went home; and whenever they were questioned about the Musulmáns of the Kohistán (the mountains), and how matters stood there, they said, "Don't call it Kohistán, but Afghánistán; for there is nothing there but Afgháns and disturbances." Thus it is clear that for this reason the people of the country call their home in their own language Afghánistán, and themselves Afgháns. The people of India call them Patán; but the reason for this is not known. But it occurs to me, that when, under the rule of Muhammadan sovereigns, Musulmáns first came to the city of Patná, and dwelt there, the people of India (for that reason) called them Patáns—but God knows!
