please clarify internal Pakistani sentiment

last exchange you mentioned almost a zero chance of internal situation erupting into a civil war
that was good to hear
but something rubs the wrong way against such warm fuzzies
I continue to hear things like 80-85% of Paki citizens are pro-Taliban, that many Afghans living in Pakistan are Pashtun and sympthetic toward Talibans, that Saudi funds the maddrassas where cultlike anti-US is bred (not to mention religious sanctioned murder)

how can so many citizens oppose what is going on in Afghany, yet the situation not worsen, and even erupt?

thanks for the detailed explanations
/ jim
