^ You guys are jumping to the wrong conclusion here. Kiyani does not seem very politically-minded to me and most analysts (incl. Lt. Gen. (retd.) Talat Masood) also think that he would try to steer the army away from politics and be his own man sooner rather than later. Kiyani reminds me of Asif Nawaz who was a thorough professional. Let’s hope for the best. This constant meddling in politics has brought army nothing but disrepute.

There are already a few dissenting voices from ex-high ranking military officials who feel that Mush is bringing the armed forces into disrepute

I think Musharraf haters will now hate Kiyani. Why? because Musharraf picked him.
