No they aren't, they're Middle Eastern.

Asian is India/Pakistan and the Far East (China, Indonesia).

Arab is Qatar, Saudi Arabia, Iran, Iraq (albeit I doubt any Iraqis are going to be buying us any time soon), Abu Dhabi etc.

PS I see you're Iranian. Or Persia as it was called some hundred years ago. Do your people consider themselves Asian?

WTF? Iranians are not arab,not at all.it's a muslim country but not an arab country.

and i really don't understand what you talking about,middle east is not a continent,we are asian.

Meeting postponed for tomorrow. (IMG:style_emoticons/default/sleep.gif)

How shocking... Expected really

You must understand there is a lot of ambiguity regarding the Middle East, whereby nations on the east of it are often regarded as more Asian, while ones on the west are Arab.

For example, is Saudi Arabia Arabian or Asian?



Didn't say it was, it's a collective term to describe the transgression from Europe to the Far East.

In the Western world countries of majority Islamic, Sikh or Hindi religion are widely viewed as being part of the Middle East. Even India and Pakistan.

But it's an ambiguious thing, as when someone says 'they were Asians' are they meaning Muslim/Arabic peoples, Indian/Pakistani peoples or Chinese/Japanese peoples?

And seems no press conference took place either.

Usual BS.

Seems to me like you are describing Juve pre-Conte (IMG:style_emoticons/default/smile.gif) . Yes, it can be done, but only with the support of management, and that is simply not going to happen with B&G running the show. So I guess you are right ...

I have a feeling something is gonna happen this time around. My guess is that Berlu is trying to play the various buyers to squeeze a little more money out of the deal. Let's see ...

They're supposed to meet in a few hours...

Last I saw Silvio was mucking Bee around. He was going into hotels, coming out of hotels. No sign of the meeting. Word is Silvio is having second thoughts,

Btw curiously while Bee is Thai, his money is not. This is an Abu Dhabian-financed purchase - some bank over there.

Hmh, I don't get this argument. So, a person cannot be Asian andArabian at the same time?? I mean you say you call for example Syrians "Middle Eastern people" but at the same time you say peoples of the Far East are Asian? Isn't this paradoxical?

And let's get into this as well: can't I be both European and Central European and Southeastern European? I mean saying someone comes from Eeastern Europe doesn't exclude the possibility of saying he's European. That should be applied to Asians as well, no?

No. In fact that passage made next to no sense at all.



Yes you can. And no it doesn't.

Apparently they're now saying the deal will happen tomorrow

This takeover saga is becoming as embarrassing and long winded as our transfer dealings. Must we turn everything into a circus at this Club?

Let's just wait. Who knows what's behind?
