Anyone in Pindi GHQ? Anyone in ISI? Paging Dr. Frankenstein. Your creation is walking around unhindered. Terrorising your ranks and files, as well as your countrymen. Help us, please, Dr. Frankenstein. Please stop incident 3 from happening. We have a pithy term in Punjabi / Urdu for this situation ... quite simply, it is 'Beyda Garagh'. (The capsizing of a boat). And the metaphorical capsizing boat here is our country's internal security! Get real guys. We need a civilian government that is strengthened by the army. Not weakened and hamstrunged and gagged by it. What gives?!
