Pakistan Not Responsive to Israeli Offers for Earthquake Aid

From the Jerusalem Post. This is reminiscent of the Israeli tsunami aid offers that were declined and Iran's rejection of Israeli earthquake rescuers. It is worth noting that 80% of Pakistanis surveyed hold anti-Jewish attitudes and 65% support bin Laden.

Update (October 12): The offer has apparently now been accepted and the original Jerusalem Post story has curiously been deleted from the news site (Hat tip: Michael S.).

What about India? What's keeping them from accepting our aid? Concerning Iran, Iranians were very angry when they heard that their government had turned down aid from Israel. What? Pakistanis would rather die than accept aid from us?

Hi,

I think Israel should send Rescuer teams and Aid of Accessories immediately to help Pakistani nation as other supportive communities.

Well, In this day and age, where money is not considered to be every thing, I think Pakistani government is well aware of the plans behind Israel's aid.
By saying this, I mean, on one hand Israel has started to build itself saying clearly We Rule The World, and America is one of our biggest friend, and on the other hand they are using America to get leathal weapons.
So how can Pakistan get aid from Israel coz Pakistan doesnt accept Israel, Israel is nothing except another US state.

Absolutely Right Salman,
Well Said, How can Pakistan accept Israel's aid, coz Israel doesnt exists in the eyes of Pakistan.
How can a group of people take over Palestine and say this is our country.

This is not acceptable at all.
Israel should search land in USA and not in any where else it want.
