A Pakistani and War on Terror - True Story?

Hi Folks,

I have recently joined this forum and i am extremely excited to be part of this community. As a brief introduction of mine i am a guy in his 20' and living here in Pakistan since ever i was born. I take interest in Politics alot that is why i chose to sign up for this forum and after making some posts in my general introduction thread i noticed most of the people here really have very different views about Pakistani people than what actually they are. Most of the people think of us like people living under Tribal Rule just like in Afghanistan, though we share a longest border with Afghanistan however we are not actually those kind of people that mostly people watch on CNN, that tribal lawless territory is only 20% of Pakistan and even before 9/11 it was like a foreign land to a common Pakistani where he does not have any access to.

In short if you have some questions about Pakistani people and how war on terror is effecting life of a common Pakistani and How do they think of the West esp., of the US Policies and What do they think of AlAQeda and Taliban like that. I would be glad to answer your questions.

Cheers!
