Re: Arab fascination?
Racist? So is that how you dismiss factual claims? Look it up South Asian Americans (75%+ of whom are Indian (half of whom to the US are Muslims), Bangladeshis or Pakistani) are the richest minority in the US, Persian Americans your most educated…meanwhile in the UK Pakistani Brits are only behind Bengalis as the second poorest group.
These are facts. I am sorry to have challenged your world view. Majority of my family and both my parents grew up in Lahore. Even in Lahore majority of middle classkids who go to Lahori colleges aren’t even from Lahore they are from Pinds, Gujranwala…outside of Lahore. Punjabis, especially UK punjabis and mirpuris (who aint kashmiri like they like to tell you) tend to remind me a lot of American Arabs. Both are ignorant backward thinking, full of pride and nothing to show for it.
