well , the problem that the authority of Pakistan is too weak to contol the country, or we can say that pakistan is too big for its government to handle, besides, the lack of education esp in the remote areas of Pakistan makes its people to be convinced by any ideas if the ideas look worm enough..pressing on the culture of the skin (where no other clture is there than religion)...People there feel very vicimized by the poverty and the lack of education (again i press on the lack of education)..it is easy to pritsh them radical idea based on patience and waiting for the other life with lots of hope(as they are sufferring already in this life)  Solution: Education (by educated people ,real educated ones)..the education will lead to production  and freedom  , and that will lead to have financial stabilty.. which leads to enjoy and love life..any forcable solution in my opinion will lead to more extreme in ideas  ...

Im writing this more as a response to nawab's answere because its pretty clear that paksitan's being spared because of strategic reasons in the subcontinent region. as far nawb's answere is concerned and his reference to pakistan having a "big" stake in the fight against terrorism and that pakis dying and the casualty number being more than 9/11 victims and also the highlight being and which forced me to post this answere that pakistan's "strategy" winning the war agaist U.S.S.R. Im glad that he pointed out the fact that the US supplied money and weapons for the war against soviet union, however american military and the american intelligence is n was not stupid enough to tell pakistan that "ok guys here's the dow n here's the hardware, go and kick ass we know u can do it on ur own while we sit at pentagon n watch the video game". cmon give urself a break and come back to reality for gawd's sake dude, pakistan couldn't even win a war against india and paki military was not even half of what its right now then (not that its any better now) and you think the US IS GONNA THROW ALL THAT MONEY AND military resources on a country like that and depend on its strategies? yeah rt? The war was majorly won because of the afghan terrain and the afghan mujahideen guirellas and also things were not going great at home for the reds and the deterioration of soviet union had started by then. tye strategies were completely provided by the US military ad to an extent the afgahn mujahideen AND NOT BY THE PAKI MILITARY (maybe there were jobless pakis fighting the war just like they are doing right now by joinign different terrorist organisations). The problems that pakistan faces today and why it has to pump in so much of itys own resources in fighting the terrorist is becoz of it s own "policies and stragies" that it followed, which was supporting taliban and other hard core terrorist groups and also turnign a blind eye to their recruitment and other unacceptable activities because pakistan wanted to get abck at india for helping bangladesh break away by cultivating terrorsit camps. entire world knows that in paki mosques  on fridays there are people collecting and donating money openly and freely in the name of islam which is used for terrorist activites. so pakistan is not the victim here its the perpetrator. its the paki guy who was the master mind behind 9/11 and the london bombers were trained in pakistan and also the 7 terrorist caught in london recently were alos trained in apkistan which they admitted. yes there are good people in pakistan but majority of them hate US and the wesatern world(no one knows for sure why the master mind of 9/11 who is a paki palnned it in the fiors place, he had no good reason to do that). they hate the same world were they immigrate to and crawl to all the nook and corners of new york or london or sydney abd then support terrorism from tere. pakistan is a country which is created by spiulling blood and it will get washed away in blood in its own blood. god bless america!!

Having spent the last two months in Pakistan, I feel that there is no way but forward for the country to go.  Having spent a few years back and forth to India, I have found Pakistan the far better of the two countries.  May be it is about time American companies started looking towards Pakistan, a country that cares more for the US then India, ie:  the latest demonstrations in Hyderabad, home of Dell HP Yahoo.

Considering Pakistan was part of India until the U.K. dismantled India into two countries before it left. I side with India. Same thing as in Palestine. The Israelis have an inch and want a yard.

Dear, \nI am very grateful for your kind contact. My question’s hading was War against Terrorism.\nI strongly condemn terrorists, they are causing great lose of innocent lives. So very person who has a soft corner in its heart for terrorist may be also called terrorist. \n\nI respect your opinion, everybody should fight against terrorism. I believe Americans are most cultured and well mannered people, you talked me in a different way? If you do not agree my point of view, we can discuss that. But you threat me to hit my country? Everybody surely loves its country, and Pakistan is playing a vital role in removing terrorism and is a front line fighter against terrorism. \n\nBut on the other hand can you justify the deaths of innocent child and innocent peoples, we are also humans.\n\nIf you think somebody is performing any task which is not right, and then you should prove that he is criminal, if proving without that, you take any action, any decision by your self, and the whole world protest against this, so you should review your act.\n\nIf we want to live a peaceful life we should remove the cause of terrorism. Otherwise you threat, so be informed nobody can remove terrorism by force. We know how to defend our country; you can buy only few people but not whole nation.\n\nAnyhow thank you for your opinion. \nLooking for your reply.\nSincerely \n\nImran

No war is not Right. Even the Mahabharat war was wrong but it happend. Also it should be noted that Pakistan is the work of the British. But the sad thing is that the problem sees no soloution in the near future. It will take only a miracle to solve this problem.

Short answer: The worst kind\n\nComplicated but politically correct answer: Its a republic. The previous answer sums it up, although throughout much of pakistan's history they've had a military ruler often bordering a dictator-like manner of rule.`\n\nThere are several reasons for pakistan's democracy's failure to perform:\n1) The military has been an important influence in the country because of the 3 wars with India and American funding to support the Taliban militarily in the 80s.\n\n2) Corruption is rampant and many political leaders are uneducated. The educated have very little patience for politics and those that do join politics end up leading organizations like the MQM, an almost separatist movement.\n\n3) Pakistan has never had the opportunity to develop a good model of democracy. The country's founder, the man with the main vision died soon after independence and ever since pakistanis have been debating whether he intended Pakistan to be an Islamic nation with Islamic laws, or a nation of muslims with secular laws.\n\n4) Pakistan is a very diverse country in terms of religion (many sects of islam and other religious minorities), ethnicity, education, and income. Makes it harder to get to a common ground. While the same can be said about the US, keep in mind that the US has had constant waves of immigration form different parts of the world for over 200 years. Pakistan on the other hand practically had 500,000 people move there from india within the space of 1 to 2 years.

Look at this way: "should the pakistanis killed everyone in my family including the children and babies?"; or "should the indians bomb everyone in that karachi school?" do you think this is the way to end terrorism?\n\nquestion like yours has to stop because it does not serve any good at all.

No. \n\nIndia was, is and will always be a peace loving country. We always stick to our principles. \n\nWho is Pakistan after all? India and Pakistan were one country before independence. We parted later and it implies that we are brothers. \n\nIndia is the elder brother, dost! Younger brother may try to pull our leg, theirs is hot blood. We are more matured and evolved. We sit back and smile. Yes, when necessity arises we defend ourselves. But we don't attack. They will learn someday and we will wait.

We've poured tremendous amounts of money into Pakistan in an attempt to "buy" their good will. They give us just enough results to keep the money coming in. Muslims do hate the U.S. Some can say it's only the radical muslims that hate the US, but if that were true, those "radicals" would have no following. The more times they call us the Great Satan, the higher their standing among the rank and file muslim world.

If you want to label Pakistan as a terrorist state, please also include the US for their support to the Mujaheddin during the Soviet occupation of Afghanistan and their support for Israel in Palestine. Please also include India for their support to East Pakistan (Bangladesh) during the 1971 crises. An irony of history is that the winning side is always the one to decide who the terrorists are. In Pakistan's case, that question has not been decided as yet so lets not get hasty with our conclusions!\n\nIf you are comparing the leadership of Pakistan with Saddam Hussain's leadership, I am sorry, but either you are trying to exaggerate an issue out of proportion or you have no idea what you are talking about. Its because of thinking like this why peace can never be achieved. Why not engage your time constructively rather than by trying (and failing miserably) to create rifts?

If and only if when both Indians and Pakistanis finds themselves as brothers and were brothers. I am an Indian. Personally speaking, I love Pakistanis's as I love all my brothers in my country.And for ur land we are fighting each other making bloods and tears. \n\nPersonally U have the freedom. First of all consider home as home and religion as religion.\n\nAnd the future of Kashmir is in you dear brother. Sorry it was a mistake, The future of our Land,(May be a united India,Pakistan,Kashmir (What I dream)) is in us.In all of us dear brother.Why are we fighting each other. Why are we shedding blood.So lets all try together to get freedom from blood and tears. Lets love together.Lets enjoy peace together.

less safe. Radical muslims who didn't hate us before hate us now. Terrorists were virtually non-existant in Iraq before we invaded, now Iraq is a training ground.\n\nedit: More of the neo-con talking point "they hate us for our freedom". How about "they hate us for our indiscriminate use of overwhelming power, political, and economic dominance and our support of repressive regimes, like Israel and Saudi Arabia"? It has nothing to do with our freedom or our way of life.\n\nMaybe I didn't make my point clear - More Muslims hate us now than before we invaded a soverign nation.  Yes, some Muslims have hated us for over 30 years because of our unconditional support of Israel over the Palestinians. Now there are more hating us because of the Iraq invasion. More hatred = more terrorists.\n\nThere are other countries that are in flagrant violation of UN resolutions, like Turkey, Israel, and the Soviet Union. Would you condone US action against them, too?\n\nLook at Saudi Arabia, where most of the 9/11 hijackers came from.  Saudi Arabia contributed $5 billion to Iraq's nuclear weapons program between 1985 and 1990. While the U.S. government vocally opposes the development or procurement of ballistic missiles by non-allies, it has been very quiet about the fact that Saudi Arabia possesses the longest-range ballistic missiles of any developing country. Saudi Arabia is working closely with Pakistan to advance their nuclear program. This scares me a hell of a lot more than Iraq did.

Pakistan's government is alligned with us right now and very supportive; but that support has caused them great rift with the islamic fundamentalist in that country.  Their elections are within a year and some don't think the current leadership will hold on.  If a radical islamic leader is elected its a "HUGE" problem for us because of the Nukes.
