This is a complete load of rubbish, and only shows how people are away from reality. I was at the finals of the T20 world cup and we had an absolute blast after Pakistan's victory and you will see streets in Birmingham where even the bins are colours Green to identify who we are.
Nahi I disagree with this that Pakistani introduce themselves as Indians in western countries. There are some cases like this but that is because all the subcontinent people are termed as Indians in some countries otherwise that's not true at all. I have lived in UK and Europe for the last decade or so and I have not seen any such cases as you mentioned.

Indian student bashed unconscious with knuckledusters
RAJAT TYAGI WAS BASHED BY FIVE MEN. PICTURE: CHANNEL 7 SUPPLIED
ANOTHER violent attack on an Indian student who says he is heading home because Melbourne isn't safe threatens to further strain relations between Australia and India.
"They hit me twice on my mouth and my whole lips were hanging down, I just lost my tooth on the floor.
"I can't eat anything, I can't drink anything, my roommates were feeding me milk just to survive."
Mr Tiyagi said he was now unable to sit his flying exams immediately after Easter and the 18 months he had spent in Australia were wasted.
"I just came here for a good life and I'm getting this," he told Channel 7.
Police are making inquiries to see if the incident was captured on CCTV footage.
"The matter's under investigation," a police spokeswoman said.
The incident could inflame tensions between India and Victoria.
The Herald Sun revealed earlier this year that taxpayers had spent $250,000 for Indian journalists to be flown to Australia to help fight a PR battle over attacks on Indian students.
Melbourne University vice-chancellor Glyn Davis has warned that Indian student enrolments are expected to fall by 80 per cent this year.

[h=1]Pakistanis pose as Indians after NY bomb scare[/h]

NEW YORK | Fri May 7, 2010 12:52pm EDT
(Reuters) - Pakistani merchants and job seekers in the United States, still reeling from economic hardship since the September 11 attacks of 2001, are posing as Indians to avoid discrimination in the wake of the Times Square bomb attempt.
Once again, a man of Pakistani descent is at the center of a security story, leading to backlash against the Pakistani-American community.
Faisal Shahzad, 30, a naturalized American born in Pakistan, was arrested on Monday, two days after authorities say he parked a crude car bomb in New York's busy Times Square.
Suspected September 11 mastermind Khalid Sheikh Mohammed and convicted 1993 World Trade Center bomber Ramzi Yousef are also of Pakistani decent, and anti-American militants fighting U.S. forces inAfghanistan take refuge in Pakistan.
In Brooklyn, home to one of the largest Pakistani populations in the United States, business is scant at the various grocery, halal meat and sweet cake shops since a Pakistani-American was suspected in the Times Square plot. More than 100 businesses along Coney Island Avenue have closed due to a 30 percent drop in business since 2001, a merchants' association said.
In Washington, an American man of Pakistani descent told of coming under suspicion this week when he tried to buy garden fertilizer. The Times Square car bomb contained a non-explosive type of fertilizer.
While there have been no reported incidents since the failed car bomb attack last Saturday, some Pakistanis are bracing for reprisals. Police have increased foot patrols.
"A lot of Pakistanis can't get jobs after 9/11 and now it's even worse," said Asghar Choudhri, an accountant and chairman of Brooklyn's Pakistani American Merchant Association. "They are now pretending they are Indian so they can get a job."
India and Pakistan have fought three wars since independence from Britain in 1947, creating hostilities that ordinarily would lead a Pakistani to resent being mistaken for an Indian.
According to the latest U.S. census data, some 210,410 people of Pakistani origin reside in the United States. Nearly 15,000 Pakistanis received U.S. immigrant visas last year.
"I want to make clear that we will not tolerate any bias or backlash against Pakistani or Muslim New Yorkers," Mayor Michael Bloomberg said this week, noting there are always "a few bad apples."
New York is "the city where you can practice your religion and say what you want to say and be in charge of your own destiny and we're going to keep it that way," Bloomberg said.
SUSPICION OF GARDENING
In Washington, an American of Pakistani heritage who would only be identified as Farhan, said a manager of a suburban home-improvement store prevented him from buying two bags of fertilizer for his family's lawn on Tuesday.
Farhan, who was born in northern Virginia, said police arrived soon after, investigated and allowed him to buy the fertilizer.
"What kind of a country are we living in when a 22-year-old male can't buy fertilizer?" Farhan asked. "I'm American. I'm not Pakistani."
Farhan said the store had subsequently apologized and the case appeared to be one of an overzealous manager rather than store policy.
Merchants in New York, many of whom declined to be named, still remember reprisals after September 11. Soon after the attacks, there was a drive-by shooting in Brooklyn at a Pakistani restaurant, which is now closed.
The local merchants association has shrunk to 150 members, from about 250 merchants almost a decade ago.
The FBI also arrested many undocumented workers in the neighborhood, leading to a wave of deportations, and residents would call law enforcement to make claims against their neighbors, including many false claims, Choudhri said.
"After 9/11, we took much pain," he said. "After that, a small beating is nothing. Now the Pakistanis are not so much scared but we are ashamed. We are embarrassed that the name of Pakistan came up."
