@fatman17; the post above makes eminent sense.
For an Army (a Professional Army in a modern non-oligarghic/non-dictatorial state) to inject an idealogy (political or religious) will be extremely Toxic. And to sustain such a system will finally be Fatal.
For a Soldier, it is critical to be able to define where his Command Structure ends and it is equally important for it to be visible at all times. But when that Command Structure begins to be less than defineable and goes into the realm of something invisible; then there can only be trouble in store.
The PA will do well to going back to re-gaining the ethos of a Professional Army; at least for its own raison d'etre.
we only have to thank Zia for this situation.
