that was not my argument at all. I was not suggesting that Pakistanis (except for perhaps religious minorities as you noted) move abroad for freedom, etc. but clearly once they are there, they also benefit from freedom of speech, freedom of religion, democracy, etc in the west.
so, it is retarded of them to say things like oh Pakistan needs a benevolent dictatorship. Pakistanis are unfit for democracy, etc. ALL politicians are corrupt. and other rubbish statements defending the Taliban.
I am not arguing about numbers. but it has been my experience on other forums, etc, that most of the JI-types who support Taliban, worship at the altar of Zaid Hamid, Shahid Masood, etc are on student visas in the UK, US, etc. like I said, benefiting from democracy, western education and still wishing for these bearded cavemen to take over Pakistan. the avg guy in Lahore (unless he is a jamaatia) cannot afford to support Taliban now, imo, for self-survival if nothing else.
