He was a failed general....tolerated the insult of judiciary regarding Lal majid and declaring Mullana Burka as hero and free man by judiciary..where as many Army personal sacrificed their life restoring state writ......
During his tenure we have seen the Army buckle down to pretty much everyone-militants and their backers,countless incidents against our sovereignty, corrupt politicians,(but atleast palaces and businesses have been well developed).
With military's poor performance against TTP during his tenure, would he have given a parting advice to his formation commanders to go for peace talks with them if civilian govt fails to do so ??
Sharif needs to appoint the next guy ASAP. This is important for having a smooth transition...
