The reason why my stock fell at PDF was simple. I take a very functional and mundane outlook with regards to nation states. No ideologies, no hype about religion, no big talk of uber-morality. A state is just a legal compact to provide a vehicle for the citizens to live a happy, fulfilled lives...

Look. We make too much of states. Modern nation states are a recent invention, particulary taking shape after Treaty of Westphalia. Fundamental to a state is the compact between the citizens and the state. The citizens will swear allegiance to the state, the state will have monopoly over force...

I am really shocked they banned you. I am not surprised about myself. My views on Mohajirs are well known and many at PDF belong to that demography. But you? Your posts were diplomatic, very impartial and never entered anything conflicting. Anyway I am glad your here. When I open threads in Pak...

I was there for a week and drove all over the island but did not see any crime or guns. In fact the island had very low police presence. I think I only saw a police car once.

I lived like that for few weeks in my ancestral village in the mountains in Pakistan. By 3rd week I was screaming "please get me out of here". So see how it goes for you.

Trust me any problems with regards to religion, nation you guys have are 100 times worse in Pakistan. I was in yiyr country. From what I saw you guys have no problems. Only how to live life to the full. Something even the rich countries face.

I have taken so much vicarious pleasure in seeing their holy mother [UAE] hugging their devil [Israel] hahaha ....

I will explore this subject on a thread in Pak section. You see as a secularist I have always tried to figure out why the fcuk are so many Paks crazed with religion? Why do they start and fart religion? It fcukin pores out like a fountain. But it's all feigned as most are as irreligious in...

No. When abroad I don;'t experiment. Tend to stick to the straight staples like regular kebabs ~ meat or Chicken.

You mean "Gangu". You know what began my downfall from PDF? The hatred of India expressed in religious terms. Turning it into binary of Muslim v Hindu. As a secularist that does not fly with me. If it is about 'Muslim' then surely that is dispersed amongst 50 Muslim countries. And if it is about...

There were Turkish restaurents in Crete. Or so they claimed. I ate from them. There was one particular nice one called Izmir Kebap. The villa was fabulous, atop a hill with infinity pool literally on the edge of the cliff. Expensive though. I will upload a video I made when I can figure how to...

I will. Give me time. I am not into infantile rubbish. I can write seriuos pieces. History, politics, geography. And my 'perspective' is nopt from some mullah teaching, or cheap Pakistan propaganda books but result of lifetime of reading as a person of Pakistan origin but looking at things from...

Let me guess. @KKF 2.0 hahahaha over here to catch mice ........ !!! One of my best buddies amongst the Turkish cohort on PDF.

Good my friend. Good. I hope to make this my 'home'. Sick of PDF and their muzzling my views by banning me all the time - this after the enormous contribution I made to the forum. So I hope I can help to build up a mini-PDF in the Pakistan section.

Do I know you?

You know that thing they say "good old days". Trust me it's loads of bollocks. nothing good about old days - other than I suppose I was young and full of sexual energy.

Yeh I have seen lot of change over my time. We used to have drills at school how to react to Soviet nuclear attack. That was a time when "terrorist" was another name for a Paddy [Irish] and not Pak!. When gay mean fun and not faggots. The world sure changed. For the better for most part.

Hello, nice to see you here. This place seems to have most of the interesting people from PDF. Certainly could end up as my default place where I get to 'shout' or 'think aloud' every evening.

Not quite. Give me few more years. He was the premier when I was a young man. We had a movie released And just a suggestion to the admin. This might sound parochial but maybe the forum name should have been TurkPak Forum. Don't overlook that English is second language in Pakistan and that...
