The present study tried to address questions related to USA Pakistan
being allied at different national and international fora but Pakistan being
the victimised/suffering friend and USA being a powerful/dictating ally
only. The quarries addressed were: If the members of victimized group
expect mere acknowledgements of their suffering from their ally groups,
or they are in need of action expressions or passive sorrows. This
exploration was followed by which expressions offer higher hope, and
satisfaction to the suffering group. The paper capitalized on experimental
design using the condolence offered by the U.S. after the Peshawar
School Massacre. Across conditions, recruiting between subjects design
with 209 university students in Islamabad, experimental manipulation
included: sorry-expressions (feel sorry), action expressions (actionexpressions: feel outraged/feel responsible), and sorrow expressions
(sorrow-expressions: feel guilty/feel regret). Results suggest that
statements with mere sorry expressions fall short of conveying much
hope for change and pain shared by the ally; participants reported more
satisfaction in response to action-expressions (outrage-responsibility)
than in response to sorrow-expressions (guilt-regret).
