Once again, an important question to consider is whether the military itself is totally blameless in any scorn and ridicule directed its way? Is it all propaganda only, or where there is smoke, there is some fire too?
No Sir its not blameless
not at all.
not blameless for its past (its use of wahabi madrassahs)
not blameless for the present (its mixed results in dealing with internal threats)
yes indeed it shares the blame for its misdeeds of the past. question is.. (which demands an honest answer) does its actions against the same terrorist deserve any recognition or not?
should the new mentors, apologists and financiers of the religious terrorists receive at least half the blame and criticism or not? I dont expect same intensity or same rhetoric against the political parties and media outlets that are self appointed mouthpieces of terrorists but at least recognise and pay attention to the instances when "free" judiciary is offering funeral prayers for Osama, refusing to charge a single terrorist and the government freeing the terrorists unilaterally even without consulting its judicial partners.
lets start and end our day by blaming the military leaders of the past and their actions, but lets not forget what the house of Sherif is doing.
"Constitution and parliament is supreme" roars the Nawaz league tiger
"we piss on your state and your constitution" responds the TTP
Analyse this
Damn indeed Sir,
at this rate we wont have to bother about Pak army's anti India proxies very soon.
We need to thank Nawaz indirectly.
flip side my dear.. these "proxies" have new mentors .. the civilian mentors who have just been paid 1.5 Billion dollars to export the terror to Syria as well.
imagine what these same proxies without any control will do to India?
a cursory observation by an Indian should be a reason to celebrate that Pakistani Military is bogged down in dealing with the Pakistani terrorists but the more dangerous possibility is that these people are unpredictable, ruthless and dont believe in self preservation,. recall the time when few cleverly made phone calls by LeT terrorist brought India Pakistan almost at war footing few years ago?
