What's new

Gen Kayani should be given title of field marshal: Malik

I believe Kiyani should be made Field Marshall due to the following achievements:

1. He manages to licke not only Ameican A$$ but Zardari's A$$ for 5 years successfully.
2. He made PA a laughing stalk among the other armies of the world.
3. His brothers are filling their bank accounts like anything (so as his).

Above all he is a coward who acts like an ostrich. What a shame.
 
Folks, what is the general perception about Gen. Kayani in civil population? Were he to join IK kind of cleaner politics after retirement, will the public side with him?

mixed preception but politics is not his domain!
 
let the good general retire quietly in nov-13 and lets welcome the new COAS who may be a thorough professional soldier selected on merit.
 
That's right.

Give a general an infinite term-limit and then cry foul when he walks into the Presidency.
 
^^^^ His extra/special services were.
1. more than 100 drone attacks.
3. Did nothing in missing persons case , a highly sensitive issue in balochistan.
4. Did nothing while the largest city and economic hub of the country has been taken over by political and land mafias.

He did nothing on his own. he respected the decisions of civilian Govt. He played a major part in strengthening democracy. Had he taken over, you would have been crying against Marshal law then.

i agree!
:pakistan:
btw i would love to watch tariq khan becoming the COAS

Yeah. But he is very junior and he has not served as DG MO :/
 
For someone to become Field Marshal, you first have to command "Armies" in a war. The definition is up for debate, but the point is that nobody in the Pakistani armed forces is deserving of this rank.

Gen Kiyani will retire and recede into oblivion given his personality. He won't be found politicking.

Yeah. But he is very junior and he has not served as DG MO :/

DGMO is not a must have for the bump up to CoAS although anyone who makes it to DGMO's slot certainly has a much better appreciation of what is happening in and around the Pakistan Army than any other serving Maj/Lt Gen. One definite is that you must have commanded a Corps which interestingly enough was not the case with Nawaz Sharif's replacement for Musharraf.
 
Giving medal to kyani for letting PPP/PMLN plunder the country? No, thank you!

He could have stopped them several years ago forcing a new election, resulting in chance of somewhat better moroons but he didnt.
 
it's just a trick to try and "bait" Army into politics

whereas Army has made it crystal clear - they want NOTHING to do with politics nor do they have any interest in it. Neither does it serve them nor it serves the country at this time


Malik here is showing utter ignorance. Martial law hasn't even been imposed, so in the absense of martial law how can you have a Field Marshal? Does "Doctor" Rehman Malik have any brain cells remaining or they're all burned
 
Martial law and the rank of Field Marshal are two non-related issues. The rank of FM is awarded to a General Staff Officer who has lead field armies in battle against an adversary. I am in total agreement with you on RM not having an ounce of the matter that really matters.
