while the nation was burning from 2012 to 2014 the most important guy in Pakistan was busy screwing her..

Plz explain the capture o Hyderabad, didn't know thatI agree with you that there should be all kinds of voices in a healthy society, including those of liberals and leftists. But Ayub was never the kind of media muzzling guy as Zia ul Haq was.
To appreciate Ayub's work, one must go to the 1950s where so many Prime Ministers were being replaced. The rulers were busy knocking each other out, rather than governance. That's one of the main reasons Afghanistan is a basket case even now!!!
Pakistan was very unstable until 1958 and under threat. India had not wasted time after Jinnah's death to start its expansionist agenda--the capture of Hyderabad Deccan.
What Pakistan and any other new country initially needed was stability, which Ayub provided. And Ayub Khan really laid the foundation of Pakistan's industrialization, agriculture reforms, strengething of defense, reaching out to China (a ZAB success, actually) despite American disapproval, building dams/canals.
I dare say, had Ayub not ruled between 1958-69, Pakistan would be in much worse situation. And that's the reason, despite some dissenting voices now, most people appreciate Ayub Khan now. And American assistance played a big role in Pakistan gaining strength. Let's not ignore that.
As for 'organic democracy'. Yes, a complex society like Pakistan cannot function without a functional democracy. And I am pleased to say that Pakistan is firmly on that road since at least 2008...
It may take some years but we seem to be on a due course now. Even the army has realized that.
