  1. well done army chief!i think this is very welcoming that our top leadership is not carryingout any activity on US pressure. pakistan must see its ownsituation and ground realities first rather to aacept any pressure from outside. we have already done a lot to please united states but gained nothing but destablized our own country and bloodshed. we hope that pakistan army will not do anything against its people will.we want strong leaders like you who dont come under US pressure.

  2. Somebody needs to stand up and slap both these people. zardari and his business partner kiayani have both allowed foreign forces to violate Pakistan's borders, air and ground, on regular basis but yet the make tall claims. kiayani has become a multi millionaire by playing the role of zardari's personal bodyguard. zardari is the most corrupt president Pakistan has ever known and kiayani is the most incompetent general the world has ever known.
