Ex Pentagon official Michael Rubin calls Pakistan Army incompetent asks Is Asim Munir going to keep his job

Washington: Michael Rubin, a former Pentagon official and a senior fellow at the American Enterprise Institute, has said that India has emerged victorious both diplomatically and militarily in its response to the aggression that Pakistan launched after precision air strikes on terror infrastructure and that Islamabad is shocked militarily.

Pakistan Polls Elections Imran Khan Remarkable Feat Twisted Spectacle Nawaz Sharif

Even as Imran Khan’s Pakistan Tehreek-e-Insaf (PTI)-backed independent candidates continue to maintain their lead on the victory board, Nawaz Sharif has gone ahead and given a victory speech. Arguing that the Pakistan Muslim League (PML-N) has emerged as the largest party in the country, he was in a congratulatory mood even as he underlined that there was a need for all political parties to come together and work on pulling Pakistan out of crisis. A Rude Awakening For The Army? It’s a strange situation where victory has been declared by a party that was expected to win easily with the help of the Pakistani Army but is trailing behind a band of independents backed by an out-of-favour party. No wonder Pakistan’s voters have finally decided to give the mighty army a taste of its own medicine. Even by Pakistan’s abysmal standards, this has been …
