Pakis are confused folks. They've been raised with the state propaganda that Pakistan actually existed long before India. So they are insecure as well as unsure about their actual heritage.
Eg :
======================================
What is the most blatant lie taught through Pakistan textbooks?

The most blatant lie in textbook accounts of Pakistan’s history is by virtue of omission, which is in effect the denial of our multicultural, multi-ethnic and multi-religious past. It is a common complaint that Pakistan’s history is taught as if it began with the conquest of Sindh by the Umayyad army, led by the young General, Muhammad bin Qasim in 711 AD.
===============================================
Also, they realize that there was no Pakistan as such before partition and so they have Indian ancestry too.
So what they do is :
However, as confused and unsure these folks are about many things, one thing they aren't unsure of at all is the fact that the lowly Hindustan lands full of "blackies" and "idol worshippers" offer them far more work opportunities and safety than their own homeland. :biggrin2:

So what they do is :
- Claim Indian ancestry when it suits them (for working in India or abroad to cast away suspicion that comes with being a Paki)
- Also claim Arab ancestry when it suits them to be seen as religious or Islamic (this when among their own brethren and also when wanting to be seen as a 'true Pakistani' - whatever that means).
