Well trained and dedicated to its duties, Pakistan’s army is the best and advanced one in the world. It is the best organized and well disciplined group in the country, always fully aware of the internal and external threats faced by the country. Every soldier is always ready to defend the country in all situations. [...]
The way Husain Haqqani has come running over to the chilling Islamabad hints at the strong probability that he is perhaps innocent, and the way President Zardari and his team is working hard to convince the highups in military establishment that they were not at all involved in any misadventure against army is another thing [...]
No surprises then that the Pakistan Army has consistently gone against the Quaid’s vision of Pakistan in its lust for power and in pursuit of this power the Pakistani Army has created distortions about our history and religion as seen in the sort of textbooks available in Pakistani schools.

This is because Arm forces are the only organized organization that have defined criteria’s of monitoring and implementation and have similar capability to look after legitimately and with confidence and commitment.”
The weather is changing in Pakistan, and the scorching summer is giving way to chilling cold, and that also means that there will be less load-shedding of electricity. But the mind inevitably turns towards the state of affairs of the country and desperation prevails.
