This is cutely called, “fifth generation warfare” or as the Army Chief calls it, “hybrid war.” Recall what Ghazi Salahuddin Ayubi, the Kurd anti-Crusade general of the Muslim armies, said, “The best way to destroy a nation is to make its people disenchanted with their own army.” Was it Churchill who said that if a country doesn’t have an army there will be someone else’s army in your country? So remember, if you weaken your army or destroy it, you will not have a country. In any case, we have to understand a very important thing: the Pakistan Army is our army and not a foreign army. Well, our foreign policy has improved markedly since Imran Khan became prime minister and if the credit for that goes to the Army, then I say three cheers for the Army. Millions of refugees from East Pakistan descended on India, which gave it the excuse to attack East Pakistan, separated by a thousand miles from West Pakistan.
