 Pakistanis - Victims Of US Cultural Terrorism?
When Pakistanis go to other countries, they are used to beheading women for not wearing a burqa, or half burning people they disagree with (with the slow pain of death to follow), throwing acid on women for showing their faces, or simply cutting off the noses of people who do not listen to them.
This is clearly a case of the US pushing their own culture and laws on the Pakistanis, while at the same time denigrating the uniqueness of the jihadi, sorry, Pakistani culture.
But, Pakistanis are well advised to keep trying such innovative means to expose the discrimination against them -- if not through motel burning, then at least through frequent credit-card fraud indictments; something is bound to work sooner or later.

 Philosophy of Anti- West Syndrome
Pakistani leadership’s decision to join the international coalition against terrorism, essentially targeting Osama bin Laden’s Al Qaida and Taliban’s regime in Afghanistan, came as almost a bolt from the blue for the fundamentalist lobby in Pakistan.
Although the majority of the people did not share the views of the religious extremists with the intensity demonstrated by the lobby, yet the stark reality is that the general sentiment of the people does not conform to the line adopted by the government leadership.
They will have to grasp the essence of the philosophy of anti-American syndrome in the Middle East and elsewhere in the third world and undertake reforms with a fundamental change in their arbitrary outlook about international terrorism.

One of my best friends happens to be a philosophy student, and she is from a very conservative, recently immigrated Pakistani family...she wears a scarf, she prays five times a day, and she reads Hegel.
