Only a few thousands of Pakistanis responded yesterday to the call of the religious parties to protest against U.S. aggression and violation of national sovereignty. Not much in a country of nearly 200 million inhabitants and where anti-Americanism is on the surface, not by the operation to kill Osama bin Laden and take 10 years for paying the price of the call by George Bush "war on terror.
" The absence of popular expressions of condemnation after the operation that killed bin Laden has surprised observers. In this country the U.S. war against terrorism is deeply unpopular because of the high cost in civilian lives caused by attacks by manned aircraft. Yesterday was the first such attacks after the death of Bin Laden in which four unmanned planes and left another 17 dead in the tribal area of Waziristan, reports.
It also influences the feeling that violate the sovereignty of the country and the manipulation of religious parties, which although very modest gain in the polls, have a great capacity for mobilization. "What controls the ISI," said a Western diplomat about the lack of demonstrations. "Not a leaf moves without the ISI is behind," he adds.
ISI stands for Inter Services Intelligence, Pakistan's powerful spy agency who is now in the public eye by ignoring both the presence of Bin Laden by little more than 50 kilometers from the capital as the U.S. operation to kill him. In view of the response to yesterday's call, unemployment and the high cost of living seem more concerned about the Pakistanis that the debate on the violation of sovereignty that encourage the most conservative.
