The Case for Pakistan as a Civilizational State

[r3alist]

9:00 onwards, uncle has lost it.

"Taxila", "Panini", "Chanakiya" - are Pakistani by default. This is simple geography. No independent, unified "India" existed that covered Pakistani lands at any time in history. If he is subtly pushing the Mauryan Empire onto us, how exactly did the Mauryans unify their empire? Was it possibly by the same sword that this moron curses out Mughals and British for in this same video?

If he accepts forcible imperial unification by Grandfather Maurya, (thus bringing Indus lands - briefly - under control of a centralised empire, whose capital was thousands of miles away btw), then he can hardly complain when anyone else brings Indus lands under their yoke.

Amateurish pseudo-historical ranting, as is their wont.

If Imperial borders are an issue then Indias borders are also an issue and Pakistan wanted more land, ergo more ivc archaeological sites


This guy is anti woke anti dei when it comes to African descent people

The simple consistent rebuttal is as follows, this is archaeology not communal politics inserted into archaeology

If that's the game for you, get out the discussion , you are in bad faith and poisoning the academic pursuit

Not much more to say to these guys, the more you say sometimes the more rope they grab

By far the best walk around of the site ever, I watched this last night and I learnt a lot from it. I recommend all to watch this if you have not been to the site at all.

Look at the arguments here.......... someone is reading threads here


@Master Chief @clutch @hussain0216 @PAKISTANFOREVER @PakistanLVR







Note how they rely on their historical failures as a type of WOKE / dei argument, that it's historically due as compensation.... not belonging to them


The rig veda is NOT very Hindu tbh look how it's claimed, slimey deception relying on ignorance

hence creating separation to amorphous Hinduism should be looked at


Any Hindu claims the indus, this is explicitly said

Essentially the most articulate argument is uttered through gritted teeth and a forced smile..... It's pre islamic, it's kind of linked to associated Hindu deities so it's ours, the location and continuity of the people is incidental....

This is a man, no parent should ever trust their child or their daughter with in any scenario ! He has all the hallmarks of a man who looks like a molester ...

Looking at that video, that is what my brain walks away with.

Can Italians not claim Ancient Roman heritage as they are not the same religion as the Ancient Romans? Can the Greeks not claim Ancient Greek heritage as they are not the same religion as Ancient Greeks? These notions are retarded and ridiculous at best.

indians claiming that Pakistanis cannot claim the great ancient civilizations of the Indus Valley, Mohenjendaro and Harappa as we are not the same religion as our ancestors who built those civilizations are also retarded and ridiculous. This is a painful cope for indians as they want to lay claim to those ancient great civilizations that the ancestors of modern-day Pakistanis built but can't as modern-day indians have 0 connections to them. This is an EXTREMELY bitter pill for indian kind to swallow.

They rode elephants while we built cities. The pain is understandable.

Apparently they weren't even good at riding elephants either.

Indeed. A highly unpredictable and stupid (for warfare purposes) animal that often caused more damage to one's own infantry than the enemy's. Probably used best in this region (elsewhere, Hannibal's deployments were mostly exaggerated and Scipio Africanus had an effective counter strategy against him) but even then, not very effective overall.

That's simply not true. The psychological effect of a war elephant in battlefields is a documented fact.

There's no evidence of any such language being spoken in a codified manner prior to the Mughal era.

Why? Just because the name "urdu" did not exist prior to the 1780s? Did you not read the quotes I pasted above? Are you telling me this linguist is wrong. He even clearly states the name "urdu" did not exist for 750 years: https://www.cambridge.org/core/jour...the-language/814D9AFC0EBB3ADBB71B4CCD26FAF2D5

None of it existed 750 years ago. It's a much recent language.

Wow a random forum user dismissing a professional linguist. What a joke. It existed for nearly a thousand years.

Provide evidence that it did exist in 1026AD.

His research & conclusions is sufficient enough and he's not alone. Logic tells me to take his findings rather than a random forum poster who wishes it was otherwise.

What is your proof that it didn't exist back then? We have poems of this language predating 1780 despite not dating as far back then but other sources claim there are poems dating as far back as the 900s.
