@water bottle: bitter truth
Agree or not.
believe or not.
Pakistanis are the worst citizens on earth.
Excuse my language or not.
This is fact.
@naeem khan Manhattan,Ks: NPR, Onion are comic newspapers. Only Pakistanis take them seriously. I cannot stop laughing when you mentioned NPR.
@Subodh Parekh: Please read the comment of KK carefully. He mentioned American standing in the line and not Pakistani. By the way your comment shows mental bias against Pakistan. May be you should see a shrink locally , I will pay your medical bill.
@Subodh Parekh: With all due respect to you and your country, we as Pakistani will never like to come to India for citizenship. The main reason is that we love Pakistan a lot. It may not be ideal country but it is our soul and home. Yes, things are not that great but we will come out of this phase of life. I always look at the glass as half full and not half empty. We have to keep on working hard and try to educate people , so the next generation can do better. I wish you best of luck.
Individuals when they break the law should be tried according to law of the land with out ignorant people jumping and bringing their nationality or religion into it, But how USA spying on their own friends, countries such as UK, France Spain to name few, besides collecting individual citizen`s data from facebook, emails world over can be justified all in the of perceived security concerns
@SHB:
Are you adding Pakistanis fleeing their country in the line to get Indian citizenship? I think you would be disappointed, because the last thing we want is to have Pakistanis in our country.
@kiran patel
indians r world best citizen n india is best country to live.yesterday i saw thousands of americans outside indian embassy in US applying for indian citizenship
@Umer:
Don't go on beard. Having beard is not a sin. There are uncountable persons committed crimes having no beard. So, the debate is not about the beard.
@ABKhan: Brother, Indians are not interested in what happens in india or elsewhere by indians . You people seriously think you are the problem? Think again.
@Kiran Patel:
Lolllllllll go and check the biggest fraud in the history of HSBC. It was an Indian working in call center of HSBC UK in India. He theft and sell the information of millions of accounts. I am sure no one in Pakistan is ever married to a snake which is a common practice in India. So look in your affairs first
@naeem khan Manhattan,Ks: that co. is guilty of using the wrong kind of visas and the good thing is that they acknowledged their mistake and paid the fine instead of making a mockery of India. They have also contributed to the IT sector big time. So are you placing us in the same category as these 2 in the picture?
@TeflonKhan: Every thing has a positive side too !
@AAHmed
A man with a beard does not make beard culprit. More crimes are committed by clean shave people. Why not say another man without beard.
@n: a little more information in this article would have been helpful,.....its too short
@Kiran Patel: I got a news for you since you Indians are so squeaky clean people. Just last week an Indian company in the US has paid millions to the US government for violating the work visas in the US. Majority of Indians came to work here were either not fit to work or were brought over here on false pretext. Check it out on NPR news or google it. Oh yeah, you people are so clean and upstanding in the world.
Most surprising in all of this, and indeed very positive, is that this guy could use a computer. Finally I have hope that we may also reach Mars, or at least Mari. Or something.
These guys have done well out of crime, but have not caught up with the crooked New York bankers yet
@ Indians and to add more, please search youtube for "Indian Predator" that were cauht on live tv trying to molest underage girls. There are quite a few of those. You guys are as bad as us or may be even more so dont try to come here and act all better.
@AAHmed: Br Ahmed, appearance can be deceiving. So can names!
This is the real face of Pakistan of today. What a shame we have lost Quaid’s Pakistan and now live in military dictator Zia’s Pakistan. In my recent visit to Pakistan I noticed that almost all businesses even the large chain stores carry pirated brand names. One can buy Armani reading glasses in a buck. Similarly brands like Gucci, Burberry, Polo RL, and likes are sold in less than $10 per item depending upon the nature and size of the item. They openly and proudly call them “first copy”. This culture was limited to the electronic piracy of software and Indian movies and the term “first copy” was used for the lean copy. Now it has been used for Prada shoes and D & G glasses as if they are electronic copies. The irony is all these traders are very religious with the same faces as above yet all their income is based upon piracy!
Great minds indeed...another Govt. or Nation especially USA would have made use of their intelligence and expertise...but Pakistanis "respect" only the westoxicated scum, the lowlifes, THe Ba Ba Blacksheep from the O/A level type of "education"..fit enough to produce jobbers, clerks , CEO types
we did it....hip hip hurray...Pakistan no, 1....
Its not the bearded ones that commit the crimes but Criminals that grow beards to espouse credibility.
Pakistanis are good at credit card frauds...............
The defendants allegedly wired millions of dollars to Pakistan, India, the United Arab Emirates, China and other countries once the "sophisticated, organized" $200 million credit card scheme began, authorities say.
At least 22 men and women living in the New Jersey, New York and Pennsylvania region — many having ethnic ties to Pakistan — allegedly conspired to defraud banks and credit lenders for more than nine years.
In one of the first guilty pleas extracted in the massive bust announced in February, Tahir Lodhi, a 53-year-old man from Hicksville, N.Y., admitted to his role in the scheme. Authorities called it a "leading" role.

Congrats !!!!! another feather...
@Kiran Patel: How about your brothers in India? Can you comment ?
JI, JUI-F Please declare them ghazis.
Pakistanis bringing good name for their country.
Why are so many bearded person involved in fraud?
The only art, Pakistanis are good at.
Behead them like in Saudi Arabia. Look at the marks on their forehead for praying.
Pakistani's are the world's worst citizens - whenever there is a fraud, or something negative going on you can be rest assured a Pakistani passport is not too far away.
Its Federal Bureau of Investigation and not Federal Board of Investigation. seriously.
What more can one expect from our moulvi baradars.
Another man with a beard
