Lt General Nadeem Anjum appointed as DG ISI

[PanzerKiel]

Thanks. First time I've heard of this position. What rank officer holds this position, and is it a newer post or has existed for long?

Existed for long, Major General...

There was a special reason of this COAS special visit to ISI HQ on 19 October, with a special message.

@The Eagle @Blacklight

Don't know what the reason for his visit but he has done a terrible job as far as security of the country is concerned cause every d.ick and harry, example TLP, can do whatever in this country and these thugs along with others are allowed to roam freely and sponsored by India. That's just shameful and deplorable.

Because some cheapskate idiot will use pirated software to send nuclear codes.

Which civilians dont have, so it would be an interesting exercise, as to who wants it, at what price, from which sell out.

 

[Blacklight]

I'm not taking sides but if the civilian doesn't know how to run the govt. (again, not pointing fingers, just using it as an example) then the incompetence or lets say "lack of experience" will only hurt the nation in the long run.

Rules are good as long as they work as intended. If not? Then they're more like guidelines...

And all rules are less than guidelines to any Pakistani of any socio-economic background. That much is proven.

Single cell organisms will not fathom the depth of your statement.

I think this discussion needs to end now, issue has been resolved amicably, so lets move on.

Party has just started

Wt i have heard is very outlandish to say the least, is that this date of 20th was recommended by some fortune teller to imran n that was the reason for the delay

Sir, I think you can safely assume, by my posts, that I am not a PTI supporter, or any political party supporter for that matter, in this particular case, this was not the issue, he is just buying time.

Excellent. The reality is that everyone and everything has failed (mil rule, all pol parties, etc.) --- signaling that our society and state is at a very critical juncture in which the system is not allowing (or attracting) good people. It's all over.

Unless we repent, as a nation, nothing will change.

Price: 1 House in Austin/Dallas/DC/Seattle and maybe a scholarship for your kids
Sell out: "X" general/air marshal/admiral and/or their kids (though I assume the President/Prime Minister authorises the launch of strategic nuclear weapons, so we can include him as well)
Buyer: CIA (our usual customer )

 

[Blacklight]

No harm in your posting it here then.

However the only thing I saw in any thread seemed to suggest that the authority is indeed with the PM in consultation with president. COAS has no role at all. But that mentioned rule was nothing but a joke. One can ask @Jungibaaz .

Nomination of DG ISI is my authority: PM Imran Khan says in cabinet meeting today

Imran Khan from day one has been appointing /transferring bureaucrats like a dictator. Commanding promotions and appointments in army, is next phase and was writing on the wall for those who have little bit of common sense. Last time Zardari did the same, he appointed airforce cheif, naval...

Were you referring to that post or was the 'relevant article' posted somewhere else?


Is there usually an "OR" in military command? Do you mean that when it comes to the ISI, the military itself is confused? Or are you suggesting that COAS has been usurping the authority of CJCSC all this time?

Why blame the Poor & Innocent politicians then?


Ok, so that's why Nawaz appointed Raheel and Bajwa, and why Geelani and Imran could appoint no one.

Do continue with your rhetoric, while your "poor & innocent politicians" keep exacerbating all critical issues.

 

[arjunk]

I'd rather ISI maintain a level of indepednence from politics. Imagine if TLP comes in power and uses ISI to assassinate people who eat baguettes because they're French.

Come on bro, expand your horizons, India, Iran, Israel, all of them are interested in our nuclear program.

A mod vs a professional spat? Is this Dubious 2.0?


jk jk....don't thread ban me pls...

No spat here, @The Eagle and I have a very good mature relationship. We dont live in nazi india, but in a free country and can certainly hold different opinions.

So some "Pak rooh" is meddling with our matters of national security


If true then someone needs to constantly say Adhaan in our p.m house

I got a warning from the mods for saying that.

The question is --- why Nov 20? Is there any non-superstitious reason?

It is not a MONTH from the announcement. It does not correlate with any upcoming summit or event.

The only thing it does line up with is the end of the lunar eclipse on Nov 19, a big marker for superstitious types. I'm not saying this is a reason --- it could obviously (and hopefully) be a coincidence.

Seems you clearly didn't understand my post.

And obviously couldn't answer it.............

Include generals and I will agree with you. Politicians and Generals both.

Well if polticians werent corrupt and incompetent, we wouldnt be in the mess we are.......

Nonetheless, it is a free country, feel free to dream whatever suits your fancy.
