Good Morning America Speaks with Pakistans Youth-How they see Osama
    #7711190 - 12/03/07 02:17 PM (16 years, 1 month ago)

It's a short interview with some older teens. For those who don't watch videos, I will give a quick run down.

Near the end, they were asked about Osama Bin Laden.

Responses were-

"Who is he? He is a character created by Americas CIA to me"

" The CIA created him to make Muslims look bad "

"We didn't have fundamental extremists here in Pakistan before 9/11"

"The above is the common consensus on it for most Pakistani people."

Interesting how differently they see it. They were very casual about it too.

Thank you for providing a summary.

After one comes, through contact with it's administrators, no longer to cherish greatly the law as a remedy in abuses, then the bottle becomes a sovereign means of direct action.  If you cannot throw it at least you can always drink out of it.  - Ernest Hemingway

If it is life that you feel you are missing I can tell you where to find it.  In the law courts, in business, in government.  There is nothing occurring in the streets. Nothing but a dumbshow composed of the helpless and the impotent.    -Cormac MacCarthy

He who learns must suffer. And even in our sleep pain that cannot forget falls drop by drop upon the heart, and in our own despair, against our will, comes wisdom to us by the awful grace of God.  - Aeschylus

I wonder why they have a problem with extremists after 9/11.


Maybe it had something to do with an neighboring extremist nation going belly up.

oh yea, and Pakistan was FOUNDED by islamic extremists. India and Pakistan were one province under English rule until Ghandi. After the british left, the Hajis looked at Ghandi and said divide this country or we will kill your hindis and we don't care.
The british didn't have the stomach to kill non-violent hindis. The hajis were jumping at the bit to kill every last infidel in the Kashmir region.

Seriously? All you conspiracy theorists arent jumping all over this one?

Its clear that they are brainwashed to tell us this so he can get away. duh.

seriously though, i think our media doesnt even touch half of the issues most of the time. even on the internet, its hard to get the full story. You have to actually go ask the people who have been there and experienced it.

go figure. media sucks.

I hope this catches on. More people need to see this side of Middle Eastern human beings as opposed to the radicalism portrayed on Western media. Funny how over here when someone says Bin Laden was a CIA agent they are slandered and called a 'truther', while over there it seems like it is common knowledge.
I thought it was awesome that she mentioned Nirvana!

so they obviously have no clue what is going on. ask the soviets if they know who osama is and you'll get a better answer. perhaps the saudis who kicked him out of their country would know better too. was this like Jay walking but Pakistani style?

Who do you think told them to say that? Good Morning America, Pakistani Propaganda/media, other?

If a foreign news source came to this country and interviewed you and some of your friends, would you say what you believe or what they told you to say for the cameras?

Who told you what you believe about who Osama is?

I'm curious what responces would be if this was also done in Russia, China, Brazil, and South Africa.
