Exactly, well put sir, people u need to understand that the establishment has never compromised national security uptil now, most people dont understand these decisions but that is why most people are not entrusted with that responsibility, the afghan jihad by zia was not to help afghanistan but to save pakistan from an inpending russian invasion and separation of balochistan so zia acted in national interest yet most simplr minded people now blame him for working for americans but in reality we used the americans just as much if not more than they used us, than the musharaf scenario escapes most people too, they say he sided with america to kill brother afghans while in reality he just played along to save pakistan from an american invasion as back than our missles were not able to reach israel which is now a major deterent of an american attack on pakistan, than he used the afghan talis to give america some of what we gave to the russians and now america has left with a bloody nose with the talis controlling most of the country again with kabul soon to fall, the american end game too was disintegration of pakistan via afghanistan via ttp and bla and now the army is avoiding sanctions right when an economic boom is underway, so what if we put hafiz under house arrest, we will lift the ban after a year or so no harm done, similarly the army is obviously using this to defame the govt and they mayeven be acting infront of the govt like they really are under pressure blah blah, shakeel afridi's release is just a statement as of now, we will see when he is released snd even if he is so what??, he's useless to us now, u see states are not run by emtional idiots, its all profit and loss to professionals, big picture shit, army will kill two birds with one stone, pmln loosing elections and avoiding sanctions etc, its these deep games that have led the world to fear and respect the isi, right now nothing is more imp than getting this back stabber noora out of pm house now, our own pm is anationak security threat, to hell with hafiz and afridi, our own state is at threat, what if india attacks tmrw, will noora back the army up or will he secede and run away like kargil and declare our own army as rebels..

Exactly my friend, that is exactly why the isi has kept national security matters in thier own hands rather than in emotional stupid civilian administrations, nothing is above this islamic republic except Allah, not ik, not noora, nor hafiz, nor afridi, nir maryam..
