Pakistani Islamic radicals have lost considerable popular support following the collapse of the Taliban. Many in Pakistan have felt that the Islamic radicals were more hot air than substance. The  radicals were not able to get a lot of people on the streets for protests during the early weeks of the war in Afghanistan.
