Our army always takes the lead, the lines that concluded the last post.
Once again an interesting situation has emerged. The conflict between present govt. and army is becoming evident. US incursion in Pakistani borders, the political govt. implies to be in agreement. However, security forces seem to have difference design this time. Force has been used for the first time to prevent US fighters to enter Pakistan.
Zardari goes to America, Kayyani to China. The divide is clear. Question is where this divide will lead to. Based on past experience it can be inferred that govt. will try to take control over army, however, chances of success; bleak as ever. I foresee the situation if the conditions remains the same (American election may be the determining factor), army will once again overthrow the govt. (not easy to assume in current state). I reckon if it happens instead of imposing a dictator yet again the army will go for election. Presumably ML-N will emerge as winners.
Pakistani messes are so fed up of army, we all know, they want democracy to survive and prove to be the panacea for the country. Additionally, in or at the end of Musharraf's regime no wanted that army should take control or intervene in political affairs at all ever. Just some months have passed, a new situation has emerged. Once again all eyes are on Gen Kayyani to sack up the govt. it continues its pro American designs. Even those who were totally against any sort of intervention of army in the political affairs seem to say its fine if the army opts for fair elections at that time.
Who is to be blamed for intervention of army in political affairs of the country; the army, the politicians, the masses or the situation.
