I know Pakistan is allies with US but it is not a country that US should trust the most or Afghanistan.

Yes, that was also a crazy but completely unsurprising news story.

What governments are our allies and where terrorist group operate from are two different things. Franco mentioned Pakistan on the one hand as you pointed out they are our ally, but on the other hand there are terrorist organisations who pose a real & serious threat that control parts of Pakistan.

"It has been exploited by individuals to settle personal scores, to grab land, to violate the rights of non-Muslims, to basically harass them," said the head of the Human Rights Commission of Pakistan, Zora Yusuf.
That is whole point of the article. It's not so much Pakistan, there are similar situations in Africa and the Middle East where non-muslims are being marginalized and persecuted.

I'm aware of Hezbollah and Al Qaeda being harbored in Pakistan. However Iran harbors both also, and Has been a huge supporter of Islamic terrorism dating back centuries, not just in the late 80s early 90's.

When you said this were you implying the TTP (Tehreek-e-Taliban Pakistan) or some other terrorist organization? I was curious why you thought Pakistan is more anti-West.

I definitely want some religion that forms 1,000 years from now to be based on a film. But oh which one?

Bill and Ted's Excellent Adventure would make a good religious document.
