Madrassa enrollment in Pakistan

Apparently, it is much lower than was previously thought. The highest enrollment rate is near the border with Afghanistan, but even there it is only 7%. It would be interesting to see similar statistics for other countries in the region. Maybe the gene pool for future terrorists is fairly small, after all.

Opinions, please.
