Everything wrong with the above departments could have been corrected in Military’s overt and covert rule. They did not attempt to correct them, but rather encouraged corrupt judges and bureaucrats. No blame to military? At least accept half of it.

These departments did not go bad in last few years. It is the result of decades of misrule and mismanagement.

About the politicians… they are bad, but still raised and backed by military. No blame to military?

Military kidnaps professor from an elite university in Pakistan. Politicians, police, bureaucracy, judiciary cannot help the family. Who is ruling Pakistan?

When PMLN opened direct fire on 100 people in front of TV cameras in broad day light and killed 20, neither politicians, police, judiciary, media, civil society could help the families - who is ruling Pakistan? I can give millions of such example - if the agenda is to just indulge in whataboutery and always find a third force to blame for everything.

I’m sorry but people like you and their civ-mil binary is responsible for dumbing down the democratic discourse in Pakistan that calls for accountability from politicians who boast about getting people’s votes. It’s such a good old sly tactic to shut down people from asking for something little more from politicians.

The quality of democracy and inflow of ideas cannot improve in Pakistan until people are trapped in self consuming civil-military pointing scoring battle. The debate needs to move forward.
