First of all, it was not until recently that the hatref of the armed forces has emerged, and it is due to the corrupt and power hungry top brass ...
Look beyond the walls of pindi for a second and you will know that this is not really true. Intense hatred of army has existed during various times in blaohcistan, pashtunsitan, sindh, even northern areas due to actions or inactions of the army. Yes, this is probably the first time that this hatred may have shown in the heartland of the army - punjab and some of the pashtun areas. This coincides directly with the first time that the army has taken on the jihadis head on. Of course this has bruised egos and hurt the army's reputation in the islamist sections of society. Nothing to do with corruption, as whatever corruption is in the army has been always there.

Stop talking as if I listen to your racist garbage.

Oh I have no doubt that you can never believe anything except what your local mullah tells you, but you see this is a public forum where even if I quote you, the message is still for everyone.
I think the critisicim directed towards the army is at the top brass. Those are the power-hungry people with no disregard to any other civil institiution in the country. As far as the foot soldiers go, Pakistanis should be greatful for their service. Those foot soldiers are willing to give the ultimate sacrifice for their country, and I saluate them.
I am so fed up and so sick of hearing every bad thing blamed on our army these days. Guys when will you finally grasp the fact that these are the defenders of our nation. These are the guys who put their lives on risk to save the nation, not you or me sitting comfortably in our rooms before our computers.
I think the solution to stop this nonsense against the army is to make one year military service mandatory for every adult in Pakistan.
If not the military service, they must serve in civil service (hospitals, schools, etc etc.).
Only the guys who have served one year in civil service or the military will know their value. Only then they will know how hard it is to build the things and how easy it is to destroy them.
This concept is implemented everywhere in the west!
People are just blaming the top brass... The Army lower ranks however are filled with very professional and good people...
they will save the nation IFF (if and only if) any nation is left to be saved!
