Well, if you're *that* interested, why don't you find out for yourself?

(Western, but not American, media: you know that other countries have
news sites, too, right?)

For some press commentary from India, see, for instance, today's
column by noted Indian columnist Kuldip Nayar on the government's
actions so far:
http://www.indian-express.com/ie20010925/ed4.html
(Nayar often writes in the Pakistani press too, and his tone is
slightly different there but the substance is the same.)
There is also today's column in The Hindu,
http://www.hinduonnet.com/stories/05252524.htm
(the writer is a politician and scholar, and a grandson of Mahatma
Gandhi).

Note: these views are not "representative" in any way.  India is a
very large country.

And one of Pakistan's most respected columnists has this to say about
his country's collaboration with the US.  (URL may change next week.)

In fact, if you read just about *any* international press (say, the
Guardian, http://www.guardian.co.uk), on a regular basis and in
reasonable detail, you'll know quite a lot about what people around
the world think.  The Guardian even has an occasional summary of 
what Indian and Pakistani papers are saying.
