Slow afternoon.
Let me pass this time by doing a short photo thread on my new favourite hashtag - #RunawayPakArmy!
Apparently, two majors have been removed from Pak Army for 'misconduct'.

The same Musharraf who now vows to once again 'teach India a lesson' had this to show when last time he tried.

Sometimes one feels for their soldiers ..

Less than a decade later, in true Pak Army tradition, he too ran away!
