[edit] Pre-Partition links
This article focuses everything on its links to Iran following its creation in 1947. I thought I'd write a bit, discussing the regions historic geographic links. It probably needs a rewrite, but I hope it served as a good starter. Afghan Historian 23:19, 27 January 2007 (UTC)
Iran was created in 1935, not 1947.Vmrgrsergr 15:10, 22 May 2007 (UTC)
Note: The analysis is rather skim, and portrays Pakistan-Iran relations from a ethno-cultural viewpoint, which results in the positive bias. For one, since the Islamic revolution in Iran, relations with Pakistan soured due to Saudi Arabia's active role in building a "Sunni Wall" around Shia Iran by direct funding of Madrassas in Pakistan, an act viewed by the Islamic Republic as regional aggression on behalf of both countries.

Updated page to remove ethno-cultural bias. Re-organized content to make it more readable.
Sources and references still need to be updated.

Changed intro to bring linguistic ties into prominence. Will also be deleting comment on Iran's oil-funded intellligence being used to "support" Shiite groups in Pakistan as North American propoganda as there is no source listed. 99.237.58.114 (talk) 06:41, 6 June 2008 (UTC)
