I agree, IK should have dissolved the assembles but then with JKT and Aleem Khan maybe he fears he hasn't got enough money required for a national election drive. You see honesty has a price, that's why its a test.
Buzdaar was a blunder or not? Only time can tell, maybe even time can't tell! Imran Khan swore by Buzdar's honesty and said he gets all allegations against him checked and verified by his agencies. Well then, either the system couldn't bear a simple sharief guy? Everyone thought they were better than him? He should be thrown out? Or agencies had been fooling and double crossing Imran Khan? Which is a very dangerous proposition.
Where COAS role is in all this? Can not be defined. Hence its better not to give any statements about him. Personally I do think a lot of Army strongly supports Imran Khan. The sentiments from lower levels does get carried all the way to the top of the Army chain. But then, who let Nawaz run away? Which agency was behind it? Was there any or it was just a genius doctor that managed Nawaz to obtain uneven blood test results?
Are there some isolated powerful people in agencies who are Anti imran/Pro nawaz? Or whole parts of it/ all of them are compromised? Whats the check and balance system on this lot? A lot to think about but there would be no real answer. I think people are unnecessarily venting frustration towards COAS.
And finally, set aside all other scenarios and consider one! Maybe the state is setting up the stage for something bigger? A complete overhaul of the system for which its necessary to stage a big event, play with people's emotions and sacrifice a good leader. Or maybe create allusion of it. Maybe its all going as per a plan to perform a reset.
