@TLK

Problem with us (that includes both of you) is that we all are short sighted people. We generalize things based on recent events and not on history. Yes Army has some corrupt people, just like cricket team has some corrupt players, just like any of your favorite and most saaf suthra institution (in the whole world) would have some corrupt people.

But when we generalize stuff, we become ungrateful to all those who got killed in 1948 war and in 1965 war and even all those who got killed in 1971 war. Corrupt or no corrupt, its the same army who saved our butt each time when war happened.

‘butt saving’ is their job, not to rule the country, not to decide what should happen “in” the country. It was the army in 1999 who took the country to brink of war too, it was army in 1971 who killed its own citizenry in Eastern wing, again the list is long mere bhai. We should be able to call a spade a spade whether its army, judiciary, journalist or the political party we associate with.
