Coming times are very bad for Pakistan. Are we going for some civil war when certain factions of politicians are demanding more provinces to create their fiefdomes? The COAS, other day, lauded the performance of Army and said that its Army which always help the people of Pakistan in floods, census, earthquake, terrorism etc etc.. But why so? It is not the goodness of Army to do all, but it is rather the badness at the part of military oligarchy to not allow any other insitution to grow and prosper. Army is not good because it is good, it is good because its bad in grabing resources, nations more thn 70% budget is being consumed by it while leaving meager amounts for whole countries development and all civil machinery to survive in leass thn 30 % of budget.. If even thn Army dont do good, thn .... our politicians are bad and are mostly incapable, but it doesnt mean that democratic system is to be scorned.. They [Politicians of all parties, Army, ISI, IB, top bureacracy etc] should all sit together to think for the future, get all their foreign money back to the country, at least to be deposited in local banks and burry all differences of provincialism and partism etc and think for the country. But alas, this is much more thn impossible....

You have depicted whole picture of the Pakistani politics.Its very good analysis. But it is not 70% budget which is consumed by the defense but its more than 70% because the army claims its share further share in the civilian budget of 30%. For example during military operations in tribal areas, the civilian govt had to transfer its budget to the army in order to meet financing of the operations.
