This coming from a civilian is not a surprise. I can say the same about you, pretty unrealistically weird views you have. Hearing from someone and uttering it all here. I guess you probably dont know who didnt led Indians come and have evening tea in Lahore in 1965.
The same planet that ignorants like you reside on. The civil war that Pakistan faces is being fought and was being fought by the Armed Forces. Have a look through Operations: Rah-e-Nijaat and Rah-e-Raast.
The strategic depth that ignorants like you talk of is always about arming taliban, never about starting jihad in kashmir in the 1990’s. By the way, go through news, so you get relieved from your ignorance once in for all. The so called TTP is being armed by anti-pakistan elements especially RAW,CIA etc. The prrof is the foriegn weaponary captured from their stronghold by the Army.
The nation is paying a very good price since Mr.10% has jumped in the seat, mind shedding some light on the 50% cost increase in living since he came in power?
Exactly, they are the only ones who work on orders only unlike their own civil counterparts whose corruption techniques even leave the satan bewildered with amazement. The armed forces retired personnel dont just deserve plots, they deserve good housing and also much more.
Spending upto 40 years sometimes without questioning an order is not everyones cup of tea, laying down life on a single order is also not everyones privilege also. The officer may not get release from the Armed Forces on his own accord, his resignation maybe rejected and he will dare not oppose the decision or else face court-martial.
They never do any favours, every action is on orders and in the line of duty, otherwise court-martial is all whats left for them. The Government then favour them for slaving away many years of their lives for the nation and gives them perks.
Army doesnt demand respect, they get respect by their actions. e.g. in the current operation in NWA, the locals have thanked the army for coming and taking over since the life is getting back to normal. Daewoo bus services have re-opened in certain areas of NWFP where the army has now restored peace.
No one is asking for your respect, ignorants like you who have no idea how army works and what a soldier/officer goes through throughout his career. You lot just watch TV and rely on media on everything with eyes closed. People like you who on action of one idiot (like this brigadier) start seeing the whole of the army through the same channel.Armed Forces are better than that.
