The western attitute seems quite opposite than the purpose publicly is told. @Usman, I totally agree to you and would add specially when it’s 14th May 2011 and Osama bin Laden is “officially killed”, the ‘war on the territories’ has rather served the terrorists in the environment of blasphamy and, mass murdering and extra judial killings of Muslims by the coalition.

Secondly we here in Pakistan can not see Al-Qaida, its something we never saw or observed during our lives which has become a representator for us (sadly).. asnd most importantly majority of Pakistanis are very much sure now that real problem is not Al-Qaida , real terrorist and enemy is US (Thanks to US for imposing corrupt leaders on Pakistan, drone strikes and making immature policies, these all factors have shifted public sympothies dramatically towards jihadis) .... A matter which could be solved in a time span of couple of years has become a cancer now , and nobody knows for how long it will plague the world @Common Sense : You know Bhuttos took 21% votes of the total votes casted and Bhutos PPP is a gang of fuedals and criminals who uses influence, divission policies amung ppl, influence, criminal pressure to get votes …. and total votes casted were only 40% of the registered votes …. this is the reason ppl don’t stand up against Al-qaeda …

Why aren’t Pakistani people rising up against Al Queda for her murder? It is very puzzling and frustrating for people in the U.S. to see this. If one of our high ranking politicians or Presidents were murdered and the murderer bragged about it, every citizen would work to track down and punish the criminals. Are Pakistani people just afraid of rising up against Al Qaeda? Why are Pakistani people rioting against their government when Al Qaeda has bragged about being responsible for Bhutto’s killing?

Did you miss them (like when he said there should be an "S" in front of the "HIT LIST," or did you just not find them funny?
