that is true in karachi. there has been a growth of unauthorized neighborhoods, people who will grab property from the government and sell it to the poor to make tiny houses. that is the way cities are growing. keeping up with that and bring them within the government is a huge challenge. >> thank you for coming in. on this 7 billion day, you are the right person. it is one of the world's finest collections of islamic art. it now has a new home in new york city. but there is a diplomatic mission. the metropolitan museum of art hopes the new gallery will help dispel stereotypes about muslim culture that have gripped america since 9/11. >> we must recognize that we live in the nation where the widespread consciousness of the islamic world really did not exist until 10 years ago. that awareness came at one of the darkest hours in american history. >> a decade after new york was attacked by muslim extremists, the city's preeminent museum has unveiled a suite of new galleries which trace the full course of islamic

why karachi? >> just watching your newscast today, i am reminded how you get a reflection of so many news stories. not just the increase in population. you have news about terrorism. you have demonstrations around the world about economic inequality. that is spectacularly on display in a city like this. you have a glass towers going up by the beach at the same time millions of people live in the unauthorized neighborhoods. many of the gravest problems facing the world are being struggled with in a city like this. >> you spend a lot of time in karachi. how has it changed? >> in 1947, this was a city of about 400,000 people. today, it is more than 13 million. >> unrecognizable. >> you see a few of the old buildings. it has grown so much. that is not just a high birthrate. it is also mass migration from india, up from elsewhere in pakistan, every time there is increased conflict in afghanistan, more people are motivated to come south and look for a job that pays them three or four american dollars a

this is the one day in the life and death of karachi, 30 people killed. >> there was a bombing and thatlence. a man appeared on the streets and burned hundreds of commercial shops. what i think i uncovered was the life of this mega city of more than 13 million people, and more than that, kind of the back story to a lot of the new stories that you discuss in this program every day. if you're talking about terrorism, you see the background of that. if you're talking about income and equality or global economic changes, you see that as well. you see a lot. >> you really can understand the anti-american fervor as well as the fact that pakistan by agency intelligence services is playing both sides of the fence. >> absolutely. there is a lot of anger directed at the united states right now, especially in the media and in the government. it's a little more complicated among the public, i think, andrea. when you go to meet people, and i know you've traveled to pakistan, you get a lot of people who are hospitable, who will pour you tea and tell you their story. i find that helpful, but i see a g

i don't think -- steve might be able to shed light on this because he wrote about karachi. a lot of these people from the indian part went to pakistan. and set up their lives all over again. >> an excellent history called india after gandhi. a lot of ambitious muslims from all sectors of society moved to pakistan seeking opportunity. it is an undeniable tragedy that so many hindus left pakistan people of other faiths when the country could have used them. >> it is important to keep in mind the pakistan army became powerful initially because of the arriving of the kashmir dispute with india which caused the leaders of pakistan to believe they needed to create and maintain a large powerful army. the army was subsequently able to take advantage of the political vacuum that subsequently appeared in the country and they have been powerful ever since. >> we supported the military in pakistan and commented that easier in the good old days to talk to straight talking pakistani generals and while the indian bureaucrats and politicians. the u.s. played a large role in the ascendancy

[laughter] >> how many of us have had bad lights and not had it worked out that well? it is 1999, in 2004 there is a global poll taken. president musharraf is the most popular person in the world. we saw relations being strong. you were publicly supportive of president bush and supportive of the united states and the war on terror and responding to billion dollars in securities. roll forward to today and the poll in pakistan shows that united states is viewed as the number 1 and external threat to the country. if you talk to u.s. policy- makers, there is a very acute concern about the way pakistan is going and whether it is a good ally. it seems that the best thing we could understand is what went wrong? when your president, did you already see the relation slipping away between the united states and pakistan? >> now they are, yes. in my time, there is no doubt in my mind we had a degree of trust and confidence. i believe relations between s

when we were in karachi last month, our crew could not get alcohol in the one hotel that supposedly allowedol exports was celebrated by the murree brewery, the only legal brewery in pakistan which has, until now, been forced to produce beer and spirits only for consumption by foreigners who actually have to sign something stating they're not muslim and by pakistani minorities. we could aren't even get any while we were there. the family who owns the muree brewery says -- pakistan is known for a lot of bad things. it's time for us to be known for good thing, too, like our beer. when we heard about the story we really wanted to try the beer, but as you can imagine it's tough to come by something that cannot legally be exported, but there's a way. we found a man named nizar khan in upstate new york who has been trying to bring murree brewery to the united states for years and he had a can of it if we sent a courier to albany to get it. so we did it. they also make something called big apple drink, so that's b-i-g-g, apple drink and here is the beer. classic lagger and i called pakistani restau

before our launch, we traveled to a gaming language in karachi and spoke with three young men who drovees to play the war game. they talked about why america has a 16% approval rating in pakistan. >> why do you think the numbers are so low, muhammad? is it because of drone attacks? is it that simple? >> yes, there was a lot of anti-americanism built in our society because of unfortunate incidents like drone attacks and even before that, they weren't just agreed to pakistan's government allying with u.s. on the war on terror because of their own reasons. >> do you think when it comes to osama bin laden, that the u.s. made a mistake in how they handled that and not working more directly with the pakistanis and in questioning the sovereignty? >> well, i guess, i mean, if you're talking about the u.s. coming here and doing an entire military operation over here, yeah, it would be nice if they had spoken to somebody, they could have come out on television there, the u.s. government and said okay, sorry, pakistan i know we did this, but we had to. and people would understand. >> relative poin

i said back to karachi. when we landed we had only about eight minutes of fuel, and when i landed, well, i was in charge of pakistan. [laughter] >> many of us have had bad flights and not had it work out this well. [laughter] so, let's roll forward a little bit. it's 1999, we've moved forward to 2004. there's a poll taken, global poll. president musharraf is the most popular president in the world. we thought relations between the united states and pakistan were strong. you were at least publicly supportive of president bush, supportive of the united states and the war on terror. we were spending $2 billion in security. now you roll forward again to today, a poll in pakistan shows that the united states is viewed as the number one external threat to the country. if you talk to u.s. policymakers there's a very acute concern about the way pakistan is going and whether it is a good ally. so it seems to me the best thing that we could understand after a few minutes of talking with you is sort of what went wrong,

they've also stirred protests including last june in karachi where pakistanis complained too many innocents are killed by errant strikes. just yesterday in nevada protestors outside the air force base also condemned the deaths of innocent civilians. there are also questions about what happens as the technology spreads. britain and israel have already used dronz. other nations are in the process of developing their own models. and we explore some of the questions about the use of drones now with retired major general charles dunlap, executive director of the center on law, ethics, and national security at duke law school. he previously served as a top military lawyer in the air force. and david cortright, director of policy studies at the kroc institute for international peace studies at notre dame university. among his many books is "uniting against terror: cooperative non- military responses to the global terrorist threat." safd david courtright, you and others have raised questions about use of drones. why do you think it's not an effective tool? >> these weapons can destroy targets but t

hillary is going to karachi. but, you know, the -- but they have both got important work to do. they're doing great. >> but you don't want to say big f'ing deal in rauchy. that's not good. >> and then we hear him talk about mrs. obama on halloween. >> halloween's coming up, and she's been giving -- for the last few years, the kids fruit and raisenins in a bag. and i said the white house is going to get egged if this keeps up. >> yeah. you've got to go -- yeah. >> you need to throw some candy in there. >> moderation. exactly. >> come on. a couple of reese's pieces or something. >> kristen, no secret about the strategy there. the president clearly trying to reach a different kind of audience. and remind voters why they liked him in the first place. >> that's absolutely right, savannah. you know, jay leno appeals to a lot of young voters. and also a lot of midwest voters. he's got a huge audience. robert gibbs spoke about this, in fact, several months ago when he said, it's a huge audience. it's a no brainer. why not go on a show like jay leno? so you're right, certainly trying to

as a matter of fact, they have lost thousands of people because of terror attacks in places like karachireat of terrorism. but they also can't pick and choose among terrorists. if you're against terrorism you've got to be against all terrorism. and that's where we have some differences. >> and let me just ask you about admiral mullen comments on the haqqani network and how the pakistani intelligence agency, the isi was supporting that network. obviously that network responsible for attacks on americans and coalition forces. sources have told cnn that this cooperation with terrorists could go all the way to the top of the isi. does it? >> well, i don't really -- i don't know that for a fact. what i do know is that, as we have made clear, the haqqanis have a safe haven in pakistan. and you can't have a safe haven. these are individuals who cross over, into afghanistan, and kill americans. these are terrorists. and then they return back to pakistan to that safe haven. we urge the pakistanis to take action, to make sure that that safe haven does not exist. that's the message we've given to t

they're doing great. >> you don't want to say big f-ing deal in karachi.uses a problem. >> getting a good laugh. i mean, how will the president take advantage of, again, the secretary's popularity? will she stump for him? what should he do with that? >> well, i think, you know, it's going to be interesting to see how the white house choss to deploy secretary clinton as a surrogate. no question she's an incredibly strong voice on subjects ranging from national affairs but also domestic policy issue. whether or not they decide to send her out in the trail, to stump for president obama, will be something to look forward to as we get closer to 2012. >> but would that be uncomfortable for him if she were a surrogate on the campaign trail? >> i think, you know, you hit on the question there. i mean, they may be a little leary of calling up the juxtaposition after the skirmishes they had in 2008 with the question of whether or not some voters might be having buyer's remorse. it will be interesting to see how they decide to play this. >> all right. we'll see how i

as we approached karachi and came down to about 8,000 feet, the pilot called me to the cockpit. when i went there, he told me we would not be allowed to land and had been told to go up to 21,000 feet. they said to get out of pakistan airspace. that was quite a shock. i presumed of this must involve me. why else would the second quarter be passed? we rose to 21,000 feet. initially the pilot said we could go into the gulf or to india. it was unimaginable for me to land in india. therefore, we rose to 21,000 feet and was told we did not have killed to get to pakistan now prepared -- pakistan now. a conversation between the pilot and the air traffic controller started. he was taking five or six minutes because he was passing messages to the prime minister of pakistan. it was taking a lot of time. i told him to land in karachi. there were five tenders on the runway, therefore, we could not land. the lights had been switched off. >> i kept going until he finally said we don't have fuel, they allowed us to go to a recovery airfield. action took place on the ground. their army acted --

movement came up which went out in the streets in the face of immense oppression in a single day in karachi, 40 people were killed. what musharraf did was let his allies run roughshod, kill these people. there was a bomb blast, also, in another instance. there was a state of emergency declared, and in the end it proved to be too much for him. and, you know, through a chain of events musharraf had to leave. he's now in england, basically, enjoying comfortable exile. and a major part of this is the confluence of factors that led to his leaving office, but do not tell me that these guys department have a major role to -- didn't have a major role to play. and if he's now the chief justice of pakistan, the current president also hemmed and hawed about reinstating him because he was afraid that chauncey would go after him on corruption charges. they came out in the streets again two years ago and again forced him to back down x. as a result, as i said, lee currently the chief justice of pakistan. so here you have one of the large muslim countries in the world. remarkable, very recent case of peop

they have a growing presence in karachi as well. you have different ethnicities and there has been a lot of competition between these ethnicities. that competition has been there since the time of partition. historically, pakistan has looked to unite the country through two means. one is by using the concept of islam that an overwhelming majority of muslims should the united in terms of that identity and the other is using a concept of entire desk in the opposition. -- anti-in the opposition. they try to find these different ethnicities together. that has had some detrimental results. host: topic this morning is the future of u.s.-india relations after admiral mike mullen leg to the main spy agency of pakistan to the hakani network and an attack on a u.s. embassy in kabul. here is the "financial times" democratic caller in ashland, north carolina, go ahead. caller: what percentage of the u.s. supplies might be going through the cover pass -- khyber pass. what is the possibility that pakistan will cut that off than if they do can con
