It was almost certain that Gen Raheel wanted to promote a Maj General to the post of DG-ISI. It was sure that both Government as well as COAS would like to see an apolitical personality on the post. I was told by one of my friend in close contacts with the government that Gen Butt was the choice of NS after consultations with not only other parties but also persons from media (For the first time in Pakistan). Butt also possessed prior experience of intel ops, which was crucial since Gen Raheel doesn't posses any experience of Intel Ops. But Nawaz having already appointing another butt for DG-ISI previously (Gen Zia ud din Butt), the decision was certain to attract some irk and affirmed the perception that Nawaz only promotes butts and sharifs generals to key posts. So Lt.Gen Rizwan is the last day change after meeting with the army chief and thus going for Rizwan. However, one of Rizwan's key strengths is that he can work in coordination with civilian security infrastructure which may pave a way for ISI opening up to the idea of dysfunctional Joint Intelligent Bureau envisaged by Chaudry Nisar.
Most disgusting act to involve so-called non entity media shtt in the state affairs, media is a non entity in the functioning of the state affairs, it seems to me nawaja is not learning from his mistakes the stupid clown.
