Pakistanis vs Pakistanis - what do you expect ?
Would you consider the 1999 event as mutiny or military coup?

If you ask historians and Pakistanis it was disgrace and a disasterIf you ask bengalis they won't say it was a disaster
It should have been lesson but military decided to repeat exact same thing again
You remember that Movie of Robert Redford, The Last Castle ? Military experience of decades put in action to turn tables and achieve an objective.Because of your cryptic style of writing, and my own mental limitations, I've had to read your post several times to figure out what you're trying to say. Correct me if I'm wrong but I think that, possibly, you may be one of the good guys. It's just that your methodology for achieving the same objectives may be different. That's good to know.
For my part, I'm blunt in giving my opinions. If I can go on a right-wing American forum and call them savages and invite them to accept Islam, then I'm not afraid of Dirty Harry either. Change can only come if a great number of Pakistanis get to know the reality of things in the country and they'll only know if we talk straight.

while Musharraf was son of an officer.

1999 was mutiny or coup. It's a simple question.You have joined a long list of people.
Musharraf was a man of flair, style, held grudges, had a big heart but like moj masti a lot and made emotional decisions. NS failed to recognise him. Musharraf was the type of officer who commanded respect and devotion from his officers and troops. He made his presence felt. It was famous about him that he kept grudges in heart and never forgot how others treated him. NS thought Musharraf could be easily sidelined since some officers spoke about kargil as a wrong move, but NS forgot that Musharraf was seen with devotion from his juniors which included corps commanders who stood up for him eventually. Not just that, Army doesn’t allow itself to be played and its decisions made by civilian PM without feedback from COAS on that decision.
In comparison, Kayani was weak if NS would have done the same to him. Background matters, Kiyani was son of JCO, while Musharraf was son of an officer. That confidence from childhood led Musharraf throughout his life.
If NS would have done the same to Bajwa, he would have struck back in similar fashion but wouldn’t have spared NS unlike Musharraf. Bajwa would have damaged NS and his family. But I’m skeptical if Corps Comd would have stood up for him, it’ would have become a debate between DG ISI and Corps Comds.
NS wouldn’t have dared do this to RS coz RS had a dashing personality which outshines Musharraf in terms of decency of way of doing things but with bigger confidence nonetheless. RS didn’t put energies where it wasn’t required but he would get things done with his commanding demeanour. RS wasn’t emotional unlike Musharraf but he dictated his own terms and commanded respect of his Corps Comds.
Asim Munir doesn’t have flair of Musharraf, he isn’t the daring type who can bring flashy changes to Army. He is like a maintenance tech who will keep things moving forward without big risks or going out of line. Unless he is provoked to an extreme, he will kept things going the way they are.
What PA needs is a hard hitting type personality of COAS, who is emotional like Musharraf but commands respect like RS to get things done which benefit Pakistan and Army.
A COAS who burns the Indian side of LOC from Siachen to Sialkot, makes alliances with friendly countries to join Pakistan’s WOT while taking out targets of interest in Afghanistan continually, then puts together a CIA type drone operation across LOC and Duran line in response to unprovoked fire from either side instead of using artillery and snipers, signs defence pacts with China and Turkey to send and receive forces in case war occurs with them or Pakistan and goes on offensive on all fronts (COIN, LOC, Intelligence/proxy wars against India and stops expansion of PA instead expands/promotes PAF and PN expansion and upgradation).
Asim Munir is not going on the offensive, which is disappointing
The reason of PAF and PN expansion is because all the above points I mentioned that COAS should do, can be done by PAF and PN on their own also.
Consider WOT against TTP or BLA. Give Ops green light to PAF in KPK and PN in Baluchistan with increased budget to expand men and material.
PAF starts its sorties of UAVs/UCAVs in KPK with ground forces consisting of (un used and barracked ) SSW. Leave PA completely out while second tier forces are paramilitary for sweep Ops. PAF’s C-130 were converted for ISR and Command/control roles in past too and can be deployed again.
PN uses its transport aircraft to drop SSG(N) and Marines along with its UAVs/UCAVs to take out BLA targets while Baluchistan FC conducts sweeping missions. PN has all advanced sensor and tech on its MPA aircraft’s to locate and target BLA. Completely sideline PA in Baluchistan, let PN carry all Ops.
Similarly, use PAF’s UCAVs to fire at every Indian Army position on LOC in retaliation to fire from Indian side. Discontinue using PA TOW/BS instead use UCAV ATGMs for attacking, EW pods for Jamming and anti jamming on EW aircraft’s and make temporary small air strips behind LOC for drone ops instead of flying drones from Skardu or ABs in KPK.
For all intel ops - enhance operational capability of AI for PAF and NI for PN. Put both these intelligence on par with ISI. Later expand role of PN against India and Iran in the seas and maritime monitoring.
