Is Pakistain part of the Middle East?

this random dude and I got into an argument over that in student congress, and I want to see if I was right ;D

 

no, you're both wrong.

 

pakiSTAIN?

Please tell me that's a typo and you're not terribly racist.

 

PakiSTAN is in the Middle East. It is not and never has been a nation, it is a territory that belongs to the Muslims.

 

It is not. It's considered south east Asia.

^^I got that from yahoo answers. After checking a map I found that theres a small sliver that is in the region known as "the middle east." Wikipedia said no, but if you want to be technical...it is.

Sorry, it's considered part of southern Asia.​

 

People call it the Middle East, but that's because they're geographically challenged.

 

Sorry, I'm on iPod and it corrects stupid spelling mistakes and makes them stupider xD

I said it wasn't part of the middle east. And Pakistan is a real country, it became such when India gained independence in 1947 (I think)

 

I was thinking of the group of people who live outside the borders of Israel and call themselves Pakistani and request a State of Pakistan.

 

...yeah then I don't know about that one xD But he was definitely not talking about that so I win?

 

Yes .

 

HOLY **** RUSSIA AND ROMANIA ARE PART OF THE MIDDLE EAST? *chaos&terror*

 

Why in God's name are you posting all this **** in random threads?

 

Good question.
What he said.

 

i dont know , i have photobucket opened in another tab, dont hurt meh! AHHH!

 

...

 

Might have already been said, but whatev.

Pakistan is a territory claimed by Muslims that was made into it's own nation when India gained it's freedom from Britain, the territory was once part of India, the creation of the country was a contributing factor which led to the Assassination of Ghandi.

Really, people are ******s and think Muslims = Middle East.
