The Al-Qaeda and the Taliban continue to operate in tribal regions of Pakistan. Al-Qaeda has reset its infrastructure it lost in Afghanistan. It is believed that Osama Bin Laden is currently hiding out in the Western region of Pakistan. In addition, plots in London have been linked to Pakistan.

President Musharraf has failed to deliver on promises to round up Al-Qaeda and cease support for the Taliban. He has not lived up to his promise to introduce democracy, and continues to rule as both President and military chief.

Madrassa schools continue to operate in Pakistan which teach anti-Western, anti-Hindu, and anti-American values to children.
