Jews AND Judaism

Talk cross-posted from User talk:IZAK#Judaism in Pakistan:

The Religion in Pakistan page follows the standard format for religions in Pakistan, for example Christianity in Pakistan, Islam in Pakistan etc. The page Judaism in Pakistan has been renamed by you to Jews and Judaism in Pakistan. This does not follow standard naming format for religions in Pakistan pages. I will be reverting the name change and if you have any objections please raise them.

• Hi Siddiqui: You seem to forget that the article in question is also connected to a long series of articles in the Jewish categories (see for example, Category:Jews and Judaism by country and Category:Jewish history by country.) You are also making a huge error because Jews are both an ethnic group and a religious group and those are not always the same (see the Jew article and the Judaism article to understand this better) and I will therefore undo your reverts because the article is not merely about "Judaism" in Pakistan, in fact it hardly deals with the religion, it is rather all about the Jews and their history in Pakistan. You should have studied this subject better and consulted editors in the Judaism section before making your changes. Thanks. IZAK 04:34, 6 November 2006 (UTC)

lack of citation

There are no citations regarding the "incidents" or "intolerance" against Jews in Pakistan. An example is the synagogue "being burnt" in Karachi.Even if it did happen,it must have a source provided,such as a newspaper artile.If a good source for the "incidents" or "intolerance" against Jews in Pakistan(if there are any) cannot be provided,then it simply shouldn't be there in the first place.

Concern of Jews in Pakistan

I am sure that there are some Jews in Pakistan even today. But the sad fact is that instead of protecting them and giving them their rights which under Islam they have, they have to live in fear and not even declare themselves Jewish. Pakistanis, muslims and non muslims, are Pakistanis and on top of it, as muslims, we must give them protection and make them feel at home. Because our religion Islam dosen't teache us Only that Muslims are brothers of Muslims but also brother of Christians, Jews, Buddhists, Hindus, Sikhs etc. But the sad thing is that some Mullahs of Arab Countries, Afghanistan and Pakistan is showing the world that Islam hates other religion is Not true.
