Your missing the thrust of my argument. These survey's are not scientific. They are not absolutes. They are about just perception. If a survey was about the most dangerous country in the world or other surveys which have shown Pakistan in bad light people
latch on to them and these are used to
beat us black and blue.
What I am saying the same sceptism being shown in regards to this survey ought be shown when it comes to those other stereotypes about Pakistan. After all Pakistan is on other side of the world and as you rightly stated American's have more exposture to Honduras then Pakistan but that never stopped us being plastered by American media as "most dangerous country in the world" when chances you guy's are probably at more risk of getting shot by some
gangsta in
Bronx, New York then
Islamabad, Pakistan.
Most American's could not place Pakistan on a map yet that does not stop them having stupid stereotypes about Pakistan. Lack of knowledge does not seem restrict them from making wild comments about a country that
most don't even know nothing about. This is my point and I hope you understand.
I hope you don't think I treat this stupid survey seriously. All this will be about Imran Khan, Zayn Malik and Amir khan getting media exposure and bang you have this stupid results. In the same way couple of terrorist incidents, few shots of crazed Mullah's in Peshawar and 180 million country is frigged.
Result Pakistan is fulll of ignorent, mullah, sandn**ers, riding on camels,
blah, blah. I hope you understand what I am saying here. They overlook that this is country that has nuclear weapons, huge cities, large middle class, Indus civilization that was contemperory to Egypt, Mesoptomia, saw Greek Kingdoms founded by Alexander the Great, works of art when North West Europe did not even know what Hellas was.
Moral of the story when you hear the next damning report about Pakistan please take it with the
bag of salt like you did at this report. I find people are ready to grab hold with both arms any negative report but don't quite show the same grip when it comes from the other direction.
* According to your data nearly 5% of American physicians were from Pakistan. Clearly that alone shows we are not just lots of sand, camels, terrorists that stole some nuclear weapons with which we intend to destroy the entire western world.

Long time before Europe even came up the term Western Civilization Pakistan was part of the Greek Empire. I know I am passionate about history so for me all roads lead to histOry.
