No Pakistan is not middle eastern it is in South Asia. just because it is mainly a Muslim country does not make it middle eastern. Bangladesh and Indonesia are Muslim countries too and they are NEVER said to be middle eastern. Just because Pakistan has problems with terrorist does not make it middle eastern either. Pakistan used to be part of the Indian empire so was Bangladesh and so how could Pakistan be middle eastern if it used to be part of the Indian empire? it has Indian races too not middle eastern so that makes it obvious Pakistan is NOT Middle Eastern. Also, the Middle East is part of Asia. This is like asking "Is France a European country or a Nordic country". (Nordic means Northern European)
