Damn. Imagine the expats living outside who have to encounter this problem on a daily basis
Oh, you have no idea ..
The day Osama was captured and killed in Pakistan, it was still the previous night in the US .. The night of 1st May I remember .. I went to my campus, and all the TV screens there were showing the news, and I was like, WTF !?!?! .. Everybody was eyeing in a very suspicious way ... The next day I was supposed to travel to Pakistan, and again at the airport, I noticed that some people were kinda eyeing in menacing ways ...
It is really really embarrassing when you're out there facing the rest of the world, and you have news like this to show the world who you are .. No words can describe the shame it brings ..
Many Pakistanis living abroad have even stopped consindering themselves as Pakistani's, and have stopped mentioning their Pakistani roots in places like Facebook and Linked In .. This may seem unpatriotic, but I say to HELL with patriotism, when your nation is doing what the world is seeing today .. Some patriotism anyway <_<
