May be advantageous to have him outside of the country if something as per the constitution has to be done to deem the current CoAS unfit to be in the office. While technically I am not aware what the solution may be, perhaps the President can fire him and appoint CJCSC to take over. Not sure...

So what do you propose? You want to kill all the Khakis? Heard of extremism of thought much?

No such firing straight into the crowd by the regular army. One needs to be able to distinguish the situation instead of airing nonsense. All of the firing has been to disperse the crowds from moving into residential areas within cantonments.

The usual tone-deaf statements...which have been the hallmark of the PDM/Establishment setup for the past many quarters. You all know where I have stood on this whole situation. What I am amazed at is how they could let things come to this. I understand there is extreme stress within the army...

This isn't right. He is a private citizen and is entitled to his views. I am fully in support of IK but any innocent getting hurt, injured, harrassed or killed is outright condemnable. Whether the police/LEA do it or supporters of any political party. The moral compass needs to remain...

Thus far all the firing at the cantonments is to keep the demonstrators out given there are residences of faujis and civil. I don't care who the mob is for, they should not be allowed to destroy and harm at will and the local PTI leaders should also be mindful of this (there are spoilers in the...

They may have gone underground fearing arrest.

O yara, can you post all of these in the IK thread? Why are you creating new threads when they are all related to IK's arrest and the aftermath?

If at all true and given CoAS is out of the country, the CJCSC could technically command the army leadership. Just depends on the collective appreciation of the army leadership to realize how many unprecedented things have happened in this country in the past 8 hours. Honestly, such step from...

O yaar, don't preach beghairaty to the nation while sitting outside of the country. Burning diplomatic missions is an outrightly stupid thing to do. It reinforces our image as intolerant people. If the anger is at the establishment/PDM etc. then stay focused on that but don't instigate with...

What 32? Where are you getting this information from? How do you know they were killed by the army specifically?

If you have facts then report. Otherwise leave out the sarcasm and insinuations. It will only misinform the masses against their own fellow Pakistanis.

None as far as I know. Do realize the firing is being done by police, paramilitary and perhaps guards at the entrance of chownis. Most troops have not fired their guns in anger as evidenced by break-ins to GHQ/Corps Commander residences. I hope the army does not fire on its own citizens and...

Because this is fundamentally wrong on so many levels. Its damage to Pakistan too will be unprecedented. The civilian-khaki divide, the public unrest etc. etc. is net negative for any sane Pakistani.

Please post to the following so a single thread has all the content: PTI Chief Imran Khan arrested in Islamabad. Locking this thread.

Oh yaar I don't want to get into arguments here. Heartbroken is for the country, the division, the destruction etc. etc. The entire mess.

Stop with your silly prodding. Anyone with anything to do with Khaki is utterly heart-broken today. This is devastating for all of us. All Signalian has ever done is provide a perspective. It was not anti-IK and anti-PTI.

Unprecedented for sure, with orders to stand-down for sure as well. Why would they let things come to this, why? Beyond me.

Don't think it will go down like this. One potential outcome (overly optimistic one), if pubic response is massive/overwhelming is that the incumbent will be told by his senior commanders that this situation is untenable and some moderation is needed. Don't think the CoAS would be replaced...

This is a "halaq may kanta" moment for the PDM/Establishment. They can't swallow IK nor can they spit him out. Nobody in their ranks has the answer to the above question despite arresting him. Public pressure should mount to release him if this nation has any khuddari. I.e Establishment, no?
