Fawad Chaudhry has explained this above too. Establishment is army and judiciary.
How did the judiciary became part of this establishment club. if we go back to 2007 you would think the judiciary was what usurped the 'all powerful establishment'

PTI needs to pull up its socks now. They have lost all the elections in recent past and if they dont deliver in nest 2 years it will be difficult for establishment to support them. Before next elections many MNAs and MPAs of PTI will join PML N as they are sensing PML N to be the next looter of Pakistan. PML Q and MQM will start criticizing the PTI in the last 6 months of their tenure and before the elections they will also join other parties. Democracy is the worst thing in Pakistan.

Always was, always been seen since 1955 judicial martial law.
this doesn't explain the lawyers movement

the establishment doesn't exist. the establishment stopped existing when musharraf had to declare an NRO and bow before the true stake holders of pakistan (the civilian/feudal/industrialist elite of pakistan and their political manifestations as PPP and PMLN)

if an all powerful establishment existed in this century they would never have allowed the likes of zardari and nawaz to show up in power all so easily. its over - there is no establishment

What is the establishment anyway? How do you define them?


Its more like a sh1t fest, power struggle between all involved.. but its the country that ultimately suffers from the side effects for decades.. I also don't think its solely inconclusive to Military elite/ judiciary snobs.. Powerful criminal mafia families also have a major stake in running of the state..

what do you mean? it's the army obviously. didn't you know that the army gets an 80% slice off of the budget?

that budget is primarily for defence, given the cumbersome task of insuring the sanctity of the state from external and internal risk factors I believe it barely covers national security needs.. plus maintaining nuclear weapons is quite expensive in and of itself.. I hardly think there would be much to spare for kickbacks.. If You look at the judicial system of Pakistan we never see corrupt rich people brought to justice, because they have the judges in their pockets. The wealthy families of Pakistan operate like an organized cartel and should the wellwishers of the state try to bring accountability, then they can cry foul and use NGO's/ media, foreign government to presure the state that their meddling outside of their allocated parameters, (questioning Pakistan's 'democracy') and given Pakistan current economic woes it easily succumbs to blackmail. Perhaps some wealthy families don't have direct influence within the establishment, but they don't need to as I said.. Anyway this is my 2 cents

Doesn't look like 80 percent
