BBC Journalist Arshia Riaz is conducting some research this week in an effort to get YOUR voices heard about the War in Afghanistan. See her message below:

“Are you Muslim, Pakistani and living in Birmingham? If so maybe you could help with my community project.

All this week I will be finding out what the Pakistani community think and feel about the War in Afghanistan. Do you think this war is having an effect on Pakistan? Or maybe you have completely different opinion on it altogether.

Email me your name, contact and comment to arshia.riaz@bbc.co.uk.

The idea is that I build up a real picture – as to what Brummie Pakistanis truly feel. Hope to hear from you soon. Thanks in advance!”
