Pakistan survey - US biggest enemy of Pakistan

57 percent of Pakistanis saw the Taliban as a “very serious threat” to their country. This year, the number fell to 34 percent. Last year, 41 percent said al-Qaeda posed a very serious threat to Pakistan. This year, 21 percent of respondents felt that way.

Two-thirds of Pakistanis oppose the U.S.-led war in Afghanistan and roughly six in 10 think the U.S. is an enemy.

11 percent of Pakistanis see the U.S. as a partner and just 8 percent have confidence that President Barack Obama will make good decisions on global affairs.

52 percent said India posed the greatest threat to their country.

*74pc Pakistanis see India as greater threat than Taliban or al Qaeda *

Few people are happy with the current state of their national economy. In only four countries: China (91%), Brazil (62%), India (57%) and Poland (53%) do publics say economic conditions are good. All four of these nations weathered the global recession relatively well. Economic gloom is most widespread in Japan, France, Spain and Lebanon, where roughly one-in-eight believes the economy is doing well.

Re: Pakistan survey - US biggest enemy of Pakistan

Re: Pakistan survey - US biggest enemy of Pakistan

Troubling for India, a quarter of respondents said they had a favorable view of Lashkar-e-Taiba, the Pakistani militant group behind the Mumbai attacks in 2008 , versus 35% who said they had an unfavorable view.

India should be ready for more Mumbai style attacks .......
