Yes, It was Army who casted votes in election and Pakistanis are so afraid of Army that they can't say single world against Army imposed politicians. Happy???
Well, How old are you ?
Their is no point to continue with some kid.
Food For Thought :
- Who Dare speak against Musharraf's take over ?
- Who spoke against Hanging of Bhutto ?
- Who spoke against what was done against an "elected" govt in 1971 ?
Army may have controlled the country in past for so many years and even now if they had a hand in getting IK elected then kudos to them. Not for the past but for getting IK elected because he's the only non corrupt party leader in Pakistan and also our only chance of getting out of this mess.
+1 for that. I Agree with you.
I never questioned about the best option, in the current situation.
Good in the same spirit Christine Fair also dismissed IAF claims of F16 kill and reputable western journalists like Lara Seligman also reported:
https://foreignpolicy.com/2019/04/04/did-india-shoot-down-a-pakistani-jet-u-s-count-says-no/
But as you said since this is not your version of “truth”, the same journalists are suddenly biased in Pakistans favor and collectively lying to save Lockheed Martins F16s reputation.
If you think Im one of those Indians who think and stick to what is spoken publically. Think Again.
Lets not mix things here.
Pakistan was "winning" until the last day in 71.
In Kargil, too pakistan won despite of achieveing nothing.
Lets be fair, in case of war, the "lens" through which certain observations are made can be partial / biased.
So dont mix the F16 incident with the Universal Truth that pakistan is Ruled by Army.
The latter is a Fact. No Questions here.
There is a difference between being Army’s favorite and calling the whole election sham. The hard core fact is that Modi can also be called as Indian Army’s choice due to his hard line stances, but that doesn’t mean Indian elections are a sham now. The same Pakistani army worked with anti army/establishment parties like PPP and Pmln for 10 years. And IK finally got in power after 3+ decades and is surviving on a very thin majority in the parliament. There are other reasons for IK victory: incumbency factor, majority voters being youth which wanted change, sharif family getting embroiled in corruption scandals etc.
Well, I agree that the author could have chosen different words to paint the picture.
However, as I said My one and only point being IK is a puppet of the Army.
I still agree, he is the Best choice....No Second thoughts about that.
