Please do not abuse all army personnel

There is no "reversing" this as it will have the other half of Pakistan out on the streets as well.

The only way forward is either the sitting government calls for early elections or wait till their tenure finishes. Neither of these options are in the hands of the judiciary and the military. While they can advise the government, at the end of the day, like IK, the incumbents may also be very hard-headed.

Gen Bajwa will retire in the next few months. My concern is the snowball effect of the critique on his person (and the army gets pulled into it too) on the rest of the army as the critique is not limited to the sitting CoAS.

Overt pressure and insulting this entire institution is counter-productive and actually hurts Pakistan.
I still believe perception of sentiment versus actual sentiment is disconnected. Any question of the love and loyalty of Pakistanis to the individual soldier would be answered with untouchable - any question of loyalty to the Army is being related to the actions of the top brass even though they are both independent and connected to the entire institution.

At the end, the past few weeks have done the same amount of damage(justified or unjustified isn’t factored) as was done post 71 to the morale of the educated middle class and beyond with regards to their faith in military leadership.

the whole saga smacks of double standards .... the army has engineered the ouster of politicians in the past.
I see nothing special this time. I would assume Imran Khan knows better. I think he is putting a drama

Off course - so even if they had “nothing” to do with it in a twist of usual suspects they are going to get the smack of ire from the public.

Imran Khan has a penchant for using the underdog victim card to rouse up his supporters and its working well.
