Re: Best solution to present problem. Please comment.

Well if you look at history General Ayub after taking over tried to contain the Soviet bloc. Zia after he took over had to join the US war in Afghanistan against the Soviets. Musharraf after taking over had to agree to joining the US war against Afghanistan. It seems a coincidence that each time the US needs support for an adventure in the region it prefers working generals.

When Ayub left he had made a big mistake to start a war with India at the behest of some politicians which derailed Pakistan economically. Yahya was also used by politicians for their vested interest and the country split into two countries. Zia and his top generals were assassinated and the country never fully recovered from that and paid a big price from the ensuing instability. Musharraf left us the legacy of the Zardari rule and the terrorism. Generals think they are smart but ultimately find themselves out of their depth and eventually seek the help of politicians to save them and the country. Not to mention that the enemies of Pakistan try to take advantage of the situation created by dictators to sow seeds of trouble within the country.
