Osama Bin Laden has a 46% approval rating and Musharraf has a 38% approval
rating inside of Pakistan.
Seventy-four percent said they oppose U.S. military action against al Qaeda and the Taliban inside Pakistan.
Asked their opinion on the real purpose of the U.S.-led war on terror, 66 percent of poll respondents said they believe the United States is acting against Islam or has anti-Muslim motivation. Others refused to answer the question or said they did not know.
There were a few bright spots in the poll results, however. Opposition leader Benazir Bhutto -- a relatively moderate and progressive figure, as well as a woman -- had a 63 percent approval rating.
Seventy-five percent of poll respondents said suicide bombings are rarely or never justified.
Ok, so 75% of the people say suicide bombings are rarely or never justified, but they seem to think that the 9/11 attacks were ok? The nerve of these "people" really chaps my ass. But wait, it gets better.
And a majority of Pakistanis said their opinion of the United States would improve if, among other things, there were increases in American aid to Pakistan, American business investments and the number of visas issued for Pakistanis to work in the United States.
They must be out of their minds if they think that's ever going to happen. First off, they seem to have quickly forgotten our help in the 2005 earthquake that they had that killed upwards of 90,000 people. If they are so quick to forget that unconditional help and their views on us is so poor, why should we even BEGIN to bother to help them out or invest in their country?
It's the same bullshit you hear from Palestinians. "Death to America! Death to Israel!.....hey, can you spare a few bucks?" You wouldn't give money to someone like that who threatened you and talked crap about you all day long, so how is Pakistan any different?
Pakistan should thank it's lucky stars that we're not going in there now. They like to think America is hated around the world universally, but everyone is still on board to get Al-Qaeda and Osama Bin Laden.

You below means US Govt.
mr right wing lunatic: you got it right musharraf is worst than bin laden for pakistanis .why he is a dictator, he thinks whatever he does is right, he doesnt bother about courts, because of him or his cronies 50 people died in karachi just to stop a rally and muchhh more.
and yes we donot approve suicide bombings, hopelessness is prohibited in ISLAM, thats another case you see it in muslim world.
yes we think US aid may improve american govt image in pakistan, no body hates who helps in good will, you are giving money now and before not to the people but selected few and your govt knew very well.
they were right in saying, if there were schools colleges built with your money surely your image would imporve not if your money goes into generals bank account people would not like that.
yes during earthquake we got tremendous US support and every body appreciated that but what came after that was IRAQ, afgahistan atttacks in pakistan etc. people change so their opinions.
you know my take on BIN laden,, he is with CIA like saddam was.
you know what happened on sept 11 was deliberate act by your government.
people like bin laden, saddam and musharraf are cancers in our society planted and made monster by US govt...
although most of the respondents didnt had any idea about the larger picture as many may not have travelled out of their villages also i dont know their sampling aswell , you know many of us belived that long ago that it was a deliberate act by some body/dept in US govt.
yes these kinds of things had happened here.
