These people are around and in considerable number. They don't hold much sway in the general populace but if you want to find them, start with talking to the kids in IJT, that'll lead you to bigger fish.
I went for an iftar to a Pakistani restaurant a couple of days back and saw a couple of Pak navy guys tearing apart chicken botis with typical fauji zeal. i was surprised to see them as Riyadh is not a coastal city. No idea what they were doing there.
KPK has introduced some landmark reforms in the police which is one of the most, if not the most important institution when it comes to capitalizing on the gains made by the military. It's not perfect but the ball has started to roll and it is rolling in the right direction.
Pretty close, like Zia he has a very defined idea of what india should be and its very rigid and exclusive. What's worse are the people he's surrounded himself with, they'll be the cause of his downfall.
Unfortunately, I'd disagree with that from first hand experience. There are people on both...
I hope the PAF has gotten its act together after multiple disasters and seriously worked on safeguarding its assets. Ideally, there should be some kind of a no-build zone around all sensitive installations specially the airports to avoid rocket attacks and birds which feed on the garbage around...
