Today is the برسى (death anniversary) of famous urdu poet Jaun Elia. جون ايليا
I think this verse from his poetry most aptly describes the actions of our dearest "field marshal" and our dearest "khadim-e-azam".

About time. CJSC Post was an empty uniform role, 4 Star rank second prize for the 3 Star who come second in race for COAS.
Hopefully we have a true CDS like the British and Americans, who has power to make real decisions and also on procurement like joint medium/light choppers, joint longe range SAMs etc

Are there any former Army insiders here? What is the culture on the inside at the higher officer levels?
What are their thoughts on historic Army blunders such as 1971, Afghan-Mujaheddin support and blowback, Taliban support & Strategic Depth, blowback from use of non-state actors?
Is there a culture of self-reflection and correction?
Is there a recognition that mistakes have been made?
Are they arrogant?
Are there any officers that believe in primacy of civilian mandate?
I suspect this thread will be blown away by the moderators but I think its fair to ask if our military is self-correcting or stuck in groupthink which is detrimental in our strategic ability to protect Pakistan.

Well, we have our answer to this dilemma. The 27th amendment sailed through the National Assembly.
I'm fascinated that you saw this coming.
