Pakistan

And Pakistani culture is inseparably entwined with Islam.

India is more secular.

Both countries stick closely with the basic Indian culture than anything. Though the cultures vary from region to region, sometimes greatly. The north and kashmir being the most obvious examples. Overall, having been to both, India is hardly secular - the Hindus (including the government) treat non-hindus like tulip . Pakistan is somewhat more balanced.

If I was running a country in that neck of the woods I'd bloody well make sure I had some too.

Really? To quote from that right wing, racist, Islamophobe source The Guardian:

at the founding of Pakistan, Hindus comprised nearly 15% of the country's population and now number barely 2%. Many have left, many have been killed, and many have converted to other religions to protect themselves. All in all, a travesty for a state that was created with the intended purpose of protecting minorities.

Other groups fare even worse according to reports from that other Neo Nazi apologist group The BBC:

Described by rights organisations as one of the most relentlessly persecuted communities in Pakistan, the Ahmadiyya have seen their personal and political rights erode steadily over the years under pressure from orthodox Muslim groups.

Members of the community have often been mobbed, or gunned down in targeted attacks, says the BBC's M Ilyas Khan in Islamabad.

Whatever the evidence about its true nature, wherever it comes from, whoever reports it, people just never stop making apologies for this disgusting faith do they?
