Mumbai incident is Zardari's Kargil...

So the civilian political establishment is not at fault at all?

  • BB placed the Taliban in the position of power in Afghanistan.
  • E. Pakistan was a political defeat when Sheik Mujeeb should have been the PM of united Pakistan. ZAB in his hunger for power preferred to see E. Pakistan go its own way.
  • the jihadi groups received and continue to receive support and cover from Islamist political parties.

I am not saying that the military is not responsible for some of the wrongs in Pakistan, espicially since it governed thecountry for half of the time since independence. That 80% figure is incorrect because the military accomplished many of its policies in connivance with the political establishment.
