since Pakistan’s birth
its army has played a dominant role
four of its generals took power and ruled the country
and when not in power it treats civilian rulers as puppets
.
the military commands foreign policy and national security
civilian governments can’t befriend a country it considers an enemy
especially, India out of which Pakistan was carved out
.
civilian governments tried to better relations with India
their efforts were halted by military supported terrorists
but now it wants good relations with India, Afghanistan, and others
.
why this u turn of heart
.
two main reasons:
the civilian government is headed by their supporter
who was supported by the military to win election last July
also … Trump has stopped military aid
he thinks Pakistan is getting free lunch from the US
as usual, he’s wrong – but only half-wrong
.
Pakistan has suffered a lot – senseless deaths and internal terrorism
unveil: the reason military extending friendly hand to neighbor
there is a Hindi/Urdu phrase:
GaNd lagi phatne
to khairAt lagi batne
literally
when the ass gets burst (with fear)
the charity begins getting distributed
