This is the kind of story you can’t make up. Akbar Zeb is a Pakistani diplomat with a big problem. In Arabic, his Urdu name sounds more like the name of a porn star.
Fox News reports the flaccid details:
The Arabic transaltion of Akbar Zeb to “biggest d**k” has overwhelmed Saudi officials who have refused to allow his post there.
Zeb has run into this problem before when Pakistan tried to appoint him as ambassador to the United Arab Emirates and Bahrain, where he was rejected for the same reason, according to Foreign Policy.
We must admit that we are surprised to learn that Akbar Zeb means “big prick.” We thought that’s what Rahm Emanuel meant.

Well well......... you all seem so interested and looks you like it , so why not send him to your country. your problem will be solved and so will his problem be.
Let me guess..English is a second language?
What's all this bruhaha?
He's just an appropriately named diplomatic PUTZ [ = yiddish word ;-) ]
I guess 'Dick' Cheney would never cut the diplomacy scene either.
I get the impression that Akbar Zeb could take this as a compliment & start bragging. I know I have friends who would do just that.
I sent this to my usual contacts, I seen some posts, but only one response. My Friend may just get it. I couldn’t agree more…
Deal with that all the time……………….it’s either “Big Dick “or asshole. Big Dick seems to get more calling, though……………………………….HaHa
I just want to say thanks for showing one of the best comedy bits of all time. Who cares about well hung Pakastani's?
The story is on page 2 of Digg with over 200 Diggs (please go Digg it more if you can). Here are some interesting things I picked up from the many comments there:
Here is a Google Translation of the name.
Here is the Wikipedia page for him, and you'll get a laugh out of it

Hugh Johnson is from Pakistan?
I wonder how they would react if we sent "Magic" Johnson there on a diplomatic mission?
