The trend reached number one in Pakistan and at the end of the day, many other countries including USA.
The American Secretary of state made these allegations during her visit to India, it is speculated that these statements are only made to please their ally India for the time being. According to some twitter users US wants to influence India's relationship with Iran and persuade them to significantly cut their oil imports from Iran.
Others, however, defended her statements recalling the Osama Bin Laden incident and debating on Pakistan's Intelligence failures.
