yeah and it's pretty culturally distinct, they just want to lump muslim countries together. it's as "middle eastern" as pakistan, turkmenistan, or uzbekistan. it's like saying austria is a balkan country

most yanks seem to think afghans and iranians are arab, too

indonesia, mauritania and bosnia are middle eastern countries

Austria is in a certain sense a Balkan country.

Austria is Balkan though. It's part of greater Albania
