Secondly, why would God punish the poorest and the most wretched of Pakistanis, most of whom have nothing to do with policy-formulation. Zardari's, Musharaf's and Sharif's wealth multiplies while the meek suffer the wrath of the heavens. Justice. Old Testament style. Arab style.

Thirdly, the overwhelming majority of Pakistanis, especially those from the lower classes, are very conservative and religious. They observe purdah, they pray on a regular basis and Islam is the most important aspect of their lives. But of course, for you, the best source of information is a YouTube comment. lol so much for standards. Secular Pakistan is restricted to the special enclaves of Islamabad and the Defence Housing areas of Karachi and Lahore.
