I sincerely hope that our soldiers are not really losing the sense of purpose & pride for joing the Pak army and that their fighting spirit is not getting diminshed due to the volatile political situation at the center where COAS seems only concerend about re-election, uniform and making deals with convicted felons/lotas/ghorras.
Thats the problem isnt it... At this time when the Armies sole concern should be the defense of the nation, they are busy trying to make deals with politicans and trying to salvage their place in politics. What happend to their priorities?
This army has turned into a bussiness enterprise... And judging by the way they have performed, I think genuine bussinessmen in suits could do a better fighting the Taliban and Al Qaeda.
The soldiers must have realized that since their superiors are busy in deal making, why not they themselves try some of it since their lives were on the line. Leadership comes from the top, especially in a military.
but whatever the case, these soldiers are a disgrace to Pakistan
how can 200 soldiers just surrender?
20, understandable
but 200, man this just sucks :(
There will almost certainly be an investigation or possibly court martial of any of those soldiers who survive this; especially so of their officers. This represents the Army's biggest humiliation since 1971.
News reports suggest that the soldiers were paramilitaries, meaning locally raised and based forces. I'm sure there will be an investigation to establish if the men were unwilling to fight local rebels and appropriate punishment if so.

1) firstly my country is the HQ for Al-Qaeda, biggest university of terror.
2) Can not protect it's own citizens.
3) Army the protector of country and people happily swap guns with a few kids in exchange for nothing.
4) the powers that be dont have the word 'resignation' in dictionary.
That incidence is just unbelievable. Funny thing is that no one from military has explained how the hell did it happen?!
say what ?? you expect an explanation, the true version of the story ... from military top brass about this disgraceful act of surrender
to this day, the only official explanation from army about the loss of Siachin territory has been that "not a single blade of grass grows there" [so thats why we gave it away!!]
until late Waheed Arshad was trying to hoodwink us by saying that troops had taken shelter somewhere due to weather conditions etc ... expect some concocted BS like .... troops laid down weapons to avoid unncessary bloodshed or something like that.
