I would suggest you read my post again. There are two options. Laughable that Imran Khan can threaten the Army. He survived this long for a reason. Okay, but he was toppled by them, and has since been tolerated by them as a disgruntled ex-PM and opposition leader left out of an otherwise national u...

There can be no winner if such a thing happened and all the factions know this. Instead there are two scenarios which can happen: 1) The Army will keep ...
