Poll: Bin Laden tops Musharraf in Pakistan - CNN.com
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.

Remembrance
Today is the 6th anniversary of the attacks in 2001 when 3,000 of your fellow countrymen were murdered by religious nutjobs. It is important to remember that their only "crime" was going to work or traveling that day. But it is equally important to remember the Palestinians were celebrating the attacks
And here:
In my view, people like this are monsters and should NEVER be given it's own state. They vote in a known terrorist organization as their government, they celebrated during the 9/11 attacks, and they openly attack Israel.
Do you need any other reasons?
