The U.S. military operation that killed Osama bin Laden last month has thrust Pakistan and its relations with the U.S. back into the headlines. But missing from some of the coverage is detail about how the country's religious affiliations and sects figure into Pakistan's political establishment and policies. We discuss the state of religion and its impact in Pakistan.
