Army chief's firing triggers coup; Pakistan's Prime Minister may have made two mistakes to spark the crisis he now faces
1999
Overview
THE Pakistani regular army provided most of the men for this summer's incursion into Indian-held territory in Kashmir. They were dressed as mujahideen guerrillas and therefore became both deniable and expendable as instruments of unofficial policy. The military establishment was distinctly unhappy when Prime Minister [Nawaz] Sharif recalled the survivors after a brief, but bitter, struggle for the heights around Kargil. Hundreds died on both sides as the Indians took back the invaded territory bunker by bunker and peak by peak. Since its disastrous partition from India in 1947, it has lurched steadily from crisis to crisis, losing three wars against India in the process. Its democratically-elected governments have been corrupt and incompetent. Previous interludes of military administration have merely been incompetent.
