re: #31 Last Mohican
The good news is that the percentage of Pakistanis who support Al Qaeda has declined dramatically in the past few years. Here are the most recent figures from Pew:
Al Qaeda: 25% favorable, 34% unfavorable, 41% don’t know
Taliban: 25% favorable, 33% unfavorable, 40% don’t know
Would it be too much to hope for that the 40-41% who don’t know, really don’t know if the taliban is listening?
