Description
Byline: Dr. Syed Rifaat Hussain There is no gainsaying the fact that the graph of negative feeling about United States has been rising in Pakistan and the efforts made by Washington to win the battle for the hearts and minds of the Pakistani people have yielded very little tangible results. According to national and global public opinion surveys overwhelming majority of Pakistanis views Unites States as an unfriendly country. According to the data compiled by Pew Global Attitude Project since 2002, the annual average of those Pakistanis who hold a positive image of the United States is less than 20%. This public disaffection toward the United States stands in marked contrast to the decades of the 1960s and 1970s when Pakistanis turned out in large numbers to welcome visiting American leaders. The first lady, Jacqueline Kennedy, for example, was greeted by thousands of cheering Pakistanis, when her motorcade passed through the narrow streets of Rawalpindi in 1962.
