It's the economy, stupid - President Bill Clinton
Pakistan is run by her Deep State, which maintains her very own deep financing sources that are kept out of the watchdogs, especially the international ones. According to some media reports, its "black economy" is worth around a half a trillion $s. Former Pak PM IK has publicly stated that he'd be able to replicate the rule of Sher Shah Suri (a legendary Hindustani Emperor from the 16th century) had he had the access to those resources under the control of her Deep State....
The moment Pak gets out of the IMF program, which is a principal tool of the Imperialists, she's dead. There's a price to pay for being the sole Muslim country with nukes....
Out of courtesy and inner instinct, this should be my last reply to you. As a rational military enthusiast, I have no interest in communicating with an extreme nationalist.

During special periods, the military has independent funding channels outside the government. In this regard, the CCP has more experience than Pakistan.
During the period when the KMT ruled mainland China, the CCP established institutions in Hong Kong to raise funds and supplies through various means. These funds and supplies were channeled into the CCP-controlled areas in mainland China through the CCP’s underground networks. Ultimately, they helped the CCP defeat the KMT and rule the entire mainland China. (The current China Resources Group was one of the funding channels at that time.) As for the PLA's business history in the 1980s that I mentioned earlier, I will not repeat it.
We all know that the Pakistani military is involved in activities beyond military affairs. But I do not believe that the Pakistani military has the self-control capability comparable to the PLA. They can at most solve daily funding issues, but they do not have the capability to address large-scale weapon procurement funding.
Regarding the funding sources for the Pakistani military's arms procurement over the years, I do not wish to delve deeper into this issue as it would touch upon sensitive nerves of Pakistani brothers, and it is not a topic that should be discussed on a military forum.
As for conspiracy theories like “deep state,” they are widespread. In many countries, there are indeed individuals whose abilities can influence or even control the government. For example, South Korean conglomerates, Jewish financial teams in the U.S., the U.S. military-industrial complex, and many political families in various countries (Japan, the Philippines, Thailand, etc.). This is normal political factional struggle and political maneuvering. The political influence of these groups on the country is dynamic and not fixed. The notion of “Freemasons control the world,” “Jews control the world,” etc., is not worth my time.
Using terms like “deep state” or “shadow government” is typical of conspiracy theories. If you are convinced of them, it suggests that your mind is filled with too much evil, reflecting extreme thinking.
