Not a true depiction of Pakistan

This was a fantasy episode. Neither Pakistan (knowingly) harbors terrorists, nor can Israel/America can ever get hold of the nuclear arsenal of Pakistan. Pakistan's Army is one of the strongest in the world. Pakistan Intelligence agency (ISI) is recently ranked at number 1 in the world.

So the western propaganda against Pakistan continues. Pakistan is one of the fastest growing economies and is not a country of morons who have nothing better to do than come out on streets for every petty thing. The episode some how conveyed to me a wishful thinking of an Israeli or American think tank member who have nothing better to do but fantasize the downfall of Pakistan.

Shame on the director/producers and ignorant actors for portraying Pakistan so poorly.

It's a TV show. Enertainment....not a documentary. It's supposed to be fictional.

Even though it is obviously fictional, the entertainment world can have propaganda that is not needed in a story. Watching television shows seems often to be like reading comic books with battles of good and evil. The messages are 'dumbed down' but they are there. That is one kind of propaganda.

So if I understand you correctly, ISI is the number 1 intelligence agency in the world yet you want me to believe that they had no inkling where OBL was for nearly a decade in their yard. Sorry, not buying it.
Back to TV land...the villians are typically whoever the US is currently having struggles with...Cuba, Russia, NKorea...Germans always make a good mark. So this end-of-season Pakistan was targeted. Just chill, next season it will be someone else.

Please consider 9/11 as an example of Intelligence failure by the CIA? Can you think CIA knowingly allowed 4 planes to simultaneously hit buildings of state pride? Do you think they knowingly allowed the pilots to be trained in US for such an attack? NO... So please buy ignorance by ISI on OBL residing in Abbotabad. This was not intentional
