Schuaeb,
From the sound of it,. you have doubts if the two nation theory is/was valid but from the sound of it since Pakistan is there and since that is all you know as a homeland you are fine with that.
My point of view is ocfourse that the two nation theory is as valid as it ever was and it dates back to 5,000 years.. a little a geographical variation here and there is nothing to be worried about. There are parts of the Indus Valley and Harappa that have steered into India and as you say Blauchistan was not part of either of them, but then these were not part of India as well ! We are talking of 5,000 years,.. rivers go dry and change their path in this time.. I mean Ravi flowed next to the Old city and the Fort just a few hundred years ago.. so lets not get very edgy about the geography et al.
It does not mean, nor is my intention to convince you of what my beliefs are. All I want is our people, Pakistanis to be proud and not be appologetic for history to Indians Muslims or Hindus.. or to the Afghans.. we have been as a nation for more than 5,000 years (or if you dont buy that) for atleast 59 years now !! nothing can un do it, we are a reality here to stay and I just dont like people raising questions to ask us if Pakistan was the right thing to do ?? do people ask the Americans if US was right in killing all those native Americans, the Spanish and bringing in all those African slaves,. We did nothing wrong we did not kill people, we did not bring in slaves, we did not evict people of their land. We simply took whatever was ours.
Let there be no doubt in any one's mind about Pakistan, we are a country have always been and will by the Grace of God always be. Pakistan Paindabad
Pakistani Tujhae Salaam !!!
