Asma Jahangir and the DG ISI (II)

Letter December 20, 2011
If General Pasha resigns, he will be setting, in fact, a dangerous precedent for his successors.

LAHORE: General Kayani didn’t resign after the GHQ attack or after May 2. But then, neither did Pervez Musharraf after Kargil, Tikka Khan after Operation Searchlight, Ayub Khan after 1965, and so on. There is a long tradition in Pakistan of not taking responsibility. If General Pasha resigns, he will be setting, in fact, a dangerous precedent for his successors.
