Pakistan Born Confused Desis?

as a foreigner, i tend to see pakistanese as a mulitucultural assemblage of people (panjabi, urdu speaking, pashto, sindhi, balotch, kashmiri…) with different languages and customs, who share the same flag and national destinee. What makes pakistan, Pakistan? hmmmm, those ethnies ahve some ties, past or present, but the unifying principle is Islam…but confusion about the different appraoches, some say sects, of Islam (sunni, shias…) is bringing some confusion to the lovely picture of islamnic republic of Pakistan.
Urdu is the national language, but i find it rather easy to understand musharraf talking because he mixes so much english in his talks, is that confusing?
there are no norms to define pakistan, and there should not be, because every nation, every people is evolving, pakistan and pakistanese are adapting to a changing world, and that is nice. More and more western lifetsyles are getting into the daily pakistani life and that can be wrong too…but no one is perfect and sometimes you gotta make mistake to realise later on that you were wrong. americanisation of pakistan was very obvious to me when i came from peshawar to karachi, but the “evil” has been going on in my own country for 50 years and guess what, we are more and more getting rid of it, and it has not yet killed our own traditions…so i hope pakistan is only modernising and will get the best out of it, without loosing its spicy and colorfull image. It is up to you all in pakistan!

again a very very complete answer.discussions shud end wen noor speaks.impressive baji ya auntee.
