I think the views among the Pashtun and Muslims in general in Pakistan, Afghanistan, and the rest of the Muslim world are very similar. They feel threatened by the global war against terrorism as conducted by Washington. They see it as a war against Islam, against Islamic values. They see Muslims being killed by the tens of thousands or more in country after country, as a result of policies that I frankly would describe as very misguided by Washington: in Palestine relating to Israel, relating to Lebanon, relating to Somalia, relating to Iraq, Afghanistan, and Pakistan. Therefore, most Muslims don't think only in terms of the local situation, but think of this as a global defence against imperialism. I'm not calling Washington's policy imperialism, although there are some elements of a global hegemonic vision there, but it is perceived widely in the Muslim world in this respect, and that is what complicates the problems so much. Most Muslims everywhere sympathize with the struggle even if they don't fully approve of Osama bin Laden.
I hope that answers your question as I understood it.
