Re: Breaking News...Gen Ashfaq Kiani appointed new COAS
but kiyani will enjoy more popular support than musharraf..
kiyani can not be questioned by anti mush folks
because-he was the only one of the military folks present who** did not file an affidavit against ifti ** because- he served as an deputy military secretary to BB
because- he has the right last name. ;) ** because- **he brokered the US sponsored muk mula b/w BB and Musharraf
so because of his roles, pro ifti ppl cant fault him, BB trusted him, and so does musharraf.
rest of the reasons based on his crisis mgmt expertise and ISI background will be of use further on anyways.
even before this nomination he was already involved in lots of politics, dunno if that can be good for the military. will it be good for the nation is yet to be seen. depending upon when mushy actually disappears from the scene and how much this dude kiani starts interfering in pak politics, poeple will start questioning him. mind you, he is relatively unknown outside of military at the moment, but not for long.
